SUBJ: Castle Doctrine details needed for New Jersey
Warm greetings there ~
I'm trying to help out a friend who lives in New Jersey and the fellow is not up-to-speed on the "Castle Doctrine."
If you're knowledgeable regarding this matter then please cite some quotes and direct links that cover NJ's Castle Doctrine then this would be of help to my buddy. Please feel free to comment on any limitations that NJ has, i.e., here in Michigan our Castle Doctrine doesn't restrict a citizen to lawful defense within (-only) his own home/property but we may also "Stand Our Ground" when out and about in public as well. Is this the case for NJ?
I read a few of the posts here for O/C NJ and found that for one to purchase ammo in your state the individual needs a 'State of New Jersey Firearms Purchaser ID Card.' Is this accurate and is it still in force today?
I was dismayed to read just how stringent and draconian the laws are for you folks in Jersey. Not good.
Thanks kindly for any assistance you can provide. Take care now...
Respectfully,
Billy
