New Jersey police demand to see contents of man's safe

[actaeon277]

While I see that they have to investigate to see if a claim is false or true....
They wouldn't have to investigate if someone called and said they saw a picture of the kid watching TV.
Or a kid sitting in a car.
or a lot of other scenarios.

They just wanted to see if the kid was holding an unregistered gun. That's all.

I see lots of kids on tv holding guns.
I was given a .22 when I was 5 or 6, not sure and allowed to go shoot rabbits, pigeons, rats, stray cats, lol. All on my own. While I wouldn't ever allow this with my own children (unsupervised), it does amaze me how fast things have changed In such a short time. And why do we need 20 cops showing up for this one instance?
I remember old time cops being proud they never had to draw or fire their weapon on duty. Now I think it's draw first ask questions later in some departments.

Can't express how important it is to teach your wife and kids about who to open the door for and what to tell them from behind it.

Well, they'll be no danger to me and my family though. These pictures involve a Marlin 60, Single Six, and a J.C. Higgins bolt gun, respectively, not the evil assault M&P 15-22 in the New Jersey pic.

When I was in high school, I asked about a pellet gun I saw at a 5&10 near the Jersey shore. The clerk asked if I had a FOID card, that I needed one to even *touch* the Crosman rifle. Jersey is nuts.

It's Jersey, you can't even carry a slingshot there.

I have a dumb question: Has the super troopers returned with a warrant, to what extent would the property owner be required to cooperate? Would he be required merely to allow access to the property, or to actively assist in such ways as unlocking a safe, as opposed to simply declaring 'there it is' and walking away?

sad..... I get bashed by some LEO's here for my comments ....Don't trust the police ...and know your rights.... a couple weeks ago here....if this story don't prove my point nothing will........ This family broke no laws ...... BTW schools are now asking kids if they shoot use guns ...if daddy or mommy have guns ....and profile kids as possible threats and inform police and all state agency's with profiles ....under the vial of looking for possible future school shooters...

I'm confused was this over a picture or someone saw a child (unsupervised) outside with a firearm?
I would question a minor with a firearm unsupervised. What would a warrant read if it would have been issued?

It appears during this political climate, our officials are forgetting they are simply public servants.

If they have a warrant, you don't have to unlock your door for them. But if you don't, they can kick it in. If they have a warrant to search your safe, you don't have to open it for them, but they can drill it if you don't.

It's New Jersey. They lean very left. Not all. But as a group.
