Really Bad Third Circuit Carry Permit Decision 9/10/2025

[bushmaster1313]

Today, 9/10/2025, the Third Circuit issued a really bad decision on where New Jersey can and cannot prohibit concealed carry.



This is not legal advice, but my preliminary read of the Decision is as follows:

With a carry permit carry is allowed (i.e. the NJ prohibition is no good):

In automobiles; and

In Private Property even without express permission.

Even with a carry permit carry is not allowed:

Public gatherings requiring a permit;

Zoos;

Parks, beaches and recreation facilities;

Public Libraries and Museums;

Locations that serve alcohol;

Entertainment facilities;

Casinos;

Public Transit;

Healthcare facilities;

Playgrounds;

Youth sports events;

IMHO this is a really ignorant decision by two Biden and Obama appointed judges over the forceful dissent by a Trump appointed judge.

Just one example, under the decision, people with carry permits can travel with their guns in their private cars -- poor slobs who need to use public transportation need to leave their guns at home.

So remember, if you want to shoot a bunch of people without that nasty thing where they defend themselves and shoot back, these are the areas set up by the courts for this kind of thing.
