I've got a couple of guns at home, who says I can't own guns? I just happened to submitted new gun licenses recently before the protest began. I didn't buy them because of the protest, it just so happened I ordered guns online a week ago and was shipped to my nearby gunstore for pickup.

I do have a M&P15 rifle which is similar to AR15 good for scaring people if they dare to try to break my door down. Many boxes of rounds so if we do get into anarchy I'm ready to defend.

If you need a gun in NJ, the process is long but straightforward. Fill out the Firearms license form and go through the automated background checks. You will need to get fingerprinted and pay the fees like $50 or so I think. Then buy gun licenses for each handgun you want to buy and you can only buy 1 handgun a month which is pretty damn annoying. Reason why I bought another pistol because I had waited a month to pick it up.

As for people's comment about AR15 shooting through walls. Pretty much any firearm will do that other than shotgun rounds. I got a nice shotgun at home too.

Picked up a Sig P365 RomeoZero with red dot sight, nice little pocket handgun. If I ever get a conceal permit, this is a good little gun to conceal and carry. Wifey likes it too.

Thanks for the reply.

You need a permit to purchase ammo?

You white people with guns are the ones allowing police brutality and/or the ones who get away with everything and why we colored people are the ones afraid of you guys. Owning guns is only encouraging more riots and looting.

You white people? Racist! You're not even black.

At the gun store, it was actually pretty even black and white buyers. I've seen 2 different black women shopping for guns. It's necessary home protection if you live in black neighborhoods where home invasions are higher rates.

I am Indian. We have been discriminated by police as Indians too (well not me since I was not born), because when my parents first moved into our neighborhood in 1993 when my mom married my dad, we did not receive an envelope to donate to our town fire department, and because we did not donate, the police knocked down our mailbox for no reason. No white person had their mailbox knocked down. My mom and dad were the first minorities in our town. These were obviously the days when the creation of suburban NJ became fully suburbanized (our development was new at that time and a farmer recently sold his land where our development is).

ALL LIVES MATTER!

Wow black women protecting themselves from their own people who are looters. Ye see, looters and these destructive rioters are "thugs" as Trump says (I agree with him on that) and thugs only make up a small amount of the population, so I guess these black women protecting themselves are rather peaceful blacks rather than the rioters who destroyed communities. Most of these rioters (of every ethnicity that rioted) were probably just regular high school jocks who originally displayed destructive behaviors back in high school. They are just repeating their childhood from whenever they got suspended or expelled from school and they feel that they can use the protesting as an excuse to act like they are in high school again (the rioters are young adults).
