The legacy media hasn’t bothered to report on a hugely important court hearing that took place late last week in New Jersey, but we’ve got all the details on today’s Bearing Arms Cam & Co. Attorney Daniel Schmutter, who’s the lead counsel in Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs v. Matthew Platkin, et al, joined the show to discuss last week’s hearing before U.S. District Judge Peter Sheridan, who is now tasked with determining whether the Garden State’s ban on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines passes constitutional muster.
