This video discusses the alleged racial bias in New Jersey's firearm permit application process, particularly concerning permits to carry. Journalist John Petrolino highlights how the state's 'temperament' clause, a subjective standard, disproportionately denies permits to Black citizens. He details his efforts to obtain data and official comment, revealing a lack of guidance from the Attorney General's office on addressing this bias. The discussion also touches on the implementation of subjective criteria post-Bruen and the challenges faced by applicants.
This video breaks down a new proposed ATF rule (2022 R-17) that aims to redefine what it means to be 'engaged in the business' of dealing firearms. The rule, stemming from the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, focuses on a subjective standard of 'predominantly earn a profit' rather than a numerical threshold. This could significantly impact private party firearm sales nationwide, potentially requiring FFL licenses for transactions previously considered personal or casual.
