Meanwhile, outside America
Man calls 911 says he was stabbed. Police show up. Search his gun safe. Arrest him on trivialities of the gun laws. Some banana republic? Yes, it’s New Jersey.
Between this and the PA mom arrested with a gun permit, let me say this: Fuck Chris Christie. You might have to roll him in flour and look for the wet spot first.

Uh, not sure if it is a “triviality: to try to bar access to LEOs with a search warrant.
.
OTOH, undecided about it being “standard” to remove weapons in the aftermath of a domestic affray, even one with violence. A temporary move to keep them away from the aggressor, but also from the victim. But is it “temporary” or does the owner have to go to court? And are the weapons stored with any more care than an equivalent weight of cinder blocks?
.
And why did he tell officers he had two gun safes, only for them to find five once they looked?
,
Problems on all sides.

don’t get any Repub that thinks Christie is anything but a RINO…
Not that it matters. Rebubs and Dems are two sides of the same coin. Meanwhile, the hungry monster that is government bureaucracy just keeps growing and growing, completely out of control. Government without represenation has been a fact in this country for…when did congress give departments the right to create rules and enforce them as if they were laws? We “lost” then. I’m thinking it was in the 70’s.

So if someone wanted to do someone else harm and they knew they had guns, all they need to do is create a domestic disturbance and have their guns taken away from them. Then they can do whatever they want.

I don’t see anywhere in the article where it said the Police had a warrant for the safes. It is New Jerisistan, so who knows how convoluted the laws are…
But, as the victim of a stabbing, I should not be subject to a house search for possible law violations.
Imagine if the cops broke into his filing cabinet to search for tax reporting violations or spent the day scanning through his internal video surveillance tapes to see what kind of kinky sex he and his wife were into.

Said it before, I’ll say it again. If it comes down to Christie vs. Clinton in 2016, I’m Voting for Hillary.
At least, with Hillary, I KNOW how she plans on Screwing Us, and can make Appropriate Plans.

I’d vote for Obama’s third term before I’d vote for Christie. No RINOs.
If Christie gets the nomination, I’ll just sit out the 2016 election. Screw the turd.
