Guns are being trafficked into camden at an astonishing rate, and the crime rate is high... having a high crime rate area next to a low crime rate area is extremely common.

NJ's gun laws aren't working because they're easy to skirt... make them national see what happens...

I grew up in a dry county, on it's border, in the next county over, were liquors stores. A law that's extremely easy to subvert is hardly a law at all.

Saying that, they're far too loose in NJ to make much a real difference any way. They're only "tight" or "restrictive" in America... in the rest of the industrialised world they'd be laughably liberal.

Lot's of info here:
