Last time i went to vegas. Needed to know if they had a cell phone law like we do...and they do.
What's the speed limit in a school zone in Nevada? Hospital zone? Residential neighborhood? You've likely driven there so you must know, because you wouldn't get behind the wheel of a deadly weapon without certainty of the laws regarding the operation of that vehicle..
The situation with Janeen Allen was that 1. she became a CCW licensee in Pennsylvania after she was robbed late at night when returning home from work. 2. She worked in New Jersey. She wasn't "traveling " to another state for a visit or vacation. 3. Therefore, if she chose to obey the laws of New Jersey, she wouldn't be able to have a firearm for self-defense when she returned to her home in Pennsylvania late at night after work. While she may not have known that she couldn't carry a firearm in her vehicle in New Jersey, she was opting for self-defense in case of the exact same situation when she was previously robbed upon returning to PA. You might say she inadvertently chose "12 over 6". People could argue, well she should have just gotten a job in PA instead of NJ, etc., but did you notice the condition of the economy? It was even worse than now in those years and I'm sure had she been able to get a job closer to her home in her home state she likely would have opted for that. (Similar to the anecdotal reports of people denied CCW licenses here when under perceived threat ask the denying cops "What else can I do?" and are told, apparently in all seriousness, "Move".)
Did she break the law? Yes. Should she have known what the law was? That would have been a good idea. Did she deserve (as a law-abiding citizen with no criminal history and single mother of two small children) to be put in jail for 40 days and threatened with felony prosecution? Only if you think the "letter of the law" must be adhered to and fully prosecuted in any and all circumstances without regard to extenuating circumstances. Anyone who thinks that and doesn't think Hillary Clinton should be imprisoned for life is a total hypocrite. Allen's was a victimless crime: not one single person was harmed or even threatened. Just like the people in New York who criminally load 8 rounds into their 10 round magazines thus violating the seven round maximum allowed by law. Anyone really believe that is a "crime"? Much less that it deserves costly prosecution and jail time? We're living in a world of idiots.
How about this: Who should be prosecuted and what should the sentence(s) be for illegally failing to provide Carol Bowne either her CCW license or a written denial within the period of time allowed by New Jersey law? They went over the deadline, even though she had a restraining order, and then was killed after she should have had her CCW by the person she had the TRO against. People in New Jersey government broke the law. Someone is dead, who may have survived had the bureaucrats in New Jersey followed the law. Not even a slap on the wrist...you know, like here with Kenoi and Kealoha. That's "justice"?
