Discussing the ongoing gun control debate on Tuesday night's Ask The Governor program on NJ 101.5, Chris Christie said it's easier in New Jersey for "bad guys" to obtain guns than good people.
Smart guns can only be fired by the owner. They exist, but they’re not sold commercially in the United States. On Monday. a New Jersey law made it illegal to sell any other guns once smart guns are available for purchase.
New Jersey Democrats have tried more than 50 times to override one of Gov. Chris Christie’s vetoes. They have failed every time. Thursday, Senate Democrats were scheduled to try again.
The New Jersey Senate will make another attempt to override a veto on a bill designed to prevent mentally ill people from getting guns. This time, however, the Senate president is taking steps to make sure every member of the upper house shows up to cast a vote.
In 48 tries, New Jersey democrats have never been successful in overriding one of Gov. Chris Christie’s vetoes. Attempt number 48 is scheduled for Thursday afternoon.
