| SUSSEX COUNTY — A longtime opponent of New Jersey’s annual bear hunt is unfit to own firearms and should undergo a mental health evaluation because of her numerous run-ins involving her anti-hunt activities, according to the Sussex County Prosecutor’s Office. Susan Kehoe has been charged seven times with harassment, twice with violating state Fish & Game regulations, once with disorderly conduct, and was convicted of resisting arrest and interfering with state conservation officers, the prosecutor’s office says. "In addition to the formal charges, Ms. Kehoe has been involved in numerous incidents where her behavior is questionable

Comments: In one of the last remaining sane portions of NJ (ie Sussex County where the third world invasion has yet to engulf) the local authorities have seen fit to to keep guns away from a derranged leftist. It has become an annual rite in NJ when bear season begins and psychotic "animal rights" leftoids come out of the woodwork to seek the attention they never got from mommy & daddy during their formative years. Many of them are more dangerous than the bears. Liberalism is a mental disease and this ding-bat should be stripped of all firearms.

Well this one´s a no brainer...IF all she wants to do is sell the guns, then sell them and let someone else with a card transport them. Once again, that´s a big IF.

She doesn´t need the card. As #1 said, just call a dealer and he/she will come and get the firearms. Problem solved. Me thinks this is just another way of this animal rights wacko to get attention. Get a life lady.

I really hate doing this. The Second Amendment says nothing about the rights of looney left PETA types being able to be infringed. It says the right of the people shall not be infringed. I guess that means that unless she is deemed to be certifiably insane or a convicted felon, she, like all the rest of us has the right to bear arms - as much as I disagree with her politics, lifestyle and probably everything else. If the DA can prove that she is about to go off the rails, then have her committed.

I think the hunters are loony - take away their guns. And so it goes.

I hate to defend the loony left, but unless this person has demonstrated behaviour such as brandishing weapons in a threatening manner, etc., she should not be subjected to this. After all, what happens to the goose can also happen to the gander.

We have a law in Michigan named for some loon( the name escapes me intentionally) such as this one who harrassed hunters by crashing through their hunting grounds banging pots and pans. She got away with it a lot longer than the should have and was lucky there were no ´accidents´.Her actions undoubtedly prevented some ,if not all such nitwittery since. As is the case with most liberals ,her efforts failed but she got to feel superior and powerful while doing it.

Animal lovers prefer a long, horrible, death for the animals they love. They would rather see them eaten alive or die of starvation. Nature is unforgiving. It is a struggle to survive even in good years and the end is usually awful. Our use of tools and information make us the top of the food chain. We should handle that position responsibly. Good hunters know how to do that.

I have to agree with those who oppose this move. While she has done many objectionable things, the only question is whether or not her conviction for resisting arrest in 2010 rises to the level of barring her from getting the permit. She should not be subject to a psychiatric evaluation any more than anyone else. Nothing in any of the incidents indicates that she has a propensity to misuse firearms.

She´s clearly, uhhh, "off-center" mentally.
But #3, #5, and #8 have excellent takes on the real issue[s]. Of course, that leaves a dicey problem of getting a good read on her future behavior on the Wack-a-doo-o-Meter.
Good posts, good thinking. Thanks.

Nope, sorry, tough call: screwballs on both sides here. Yeah, she´s a looney-left nut job, but what part of "shall not be infringed" does New Jersey not understand?
We´re not talking about a concealed carry license here (of course not -- this is New Jersey), but rather the simple right even to possess a firearm. Unless she´s a felon or has been involuntarily committed to a mental hospital, there´s no way the State should forbid her.

++++ Propaganda Alert ! ++++ This does not pass the sniff test; This is a set up by the anti-gun freaks. More likely, a compliant judge will remove her card... therefore setting a precedent to revoking licenses based on whacko claims.
The Obozo WH is also attempting to categorize all retiring military personnel be classified as mentally damaged & therefore unfit to own arms.... this looks like an attempt to justify it.

BUFFALO — A western New York man has pleaded guilty to filing more than 100 tax returns under the names of people who had recently died. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Buffalo says 42-year-old John Berry Jr. of Dunkirk pleaded guilty Tuesday to making a false claim against the United States. Prosecutors say he filed 122 false income tax returns in 2008 and 2009 seeking refunds totaling $218,000. Authorities say more than $92,000 was deposited directly into his bank account. Berry faces up to five years in prison when he’s sentenced in August.

Two Republican governors are urging President Barack Obama to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Internal Revenue Service´s admission that it targeted conservative political groups. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker call the allegations "Big Brother come to life." They want a special prosecutor to find out if any laws were broken and say Obama should fire any IRS employees responsible for the situation. The IRS has apologized for what it calls "inappropriate" targeting of conservative political groups. The agency targeted groups during the 2010 congressional elections and the 2012 presidential election.

In recent weeks, scandal after scandal has rocked Barack Obama’s administration. His presidency might be imperiled. Or it might not be.(snip)Doubtless, Obama did not want for any of these scandals to come to light. Now that they’ve arisen, though, they can be exploited to depict himself as a Washington outsider and his Republican nemeses as “the establishment” that has vowed to destroy him. Potentially, this strategy trades off short-term loss for long-term gain. Again, Alinsky is instructive here: “If by losing in a certain action” the organizer “can get more members than by winning

America should end its intervention in Syria or shift its support to President Bashir Assad. Iraq-based al Qaeda militants now control the rebellion. A shadowy terrorist named Baghdadi has moved from Iraq to northern Syria to control al Qaeda’s operations there. He is a grotesque savage, determined to compel acceptance of radical Islam through religious courts and executions.(snip)U.S. military intervention ended badly in Libya. Our ambassador was killed, and 20,000 Libyan anti-aircraft missiles went missing; they may still be in rebel hands. If al Qaeda topples Syria, they will capture large stocks of chemical weapons

The Obama administration has an enemies list, and John Dodson was on it. The special agent for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) infuriated his superiors by alerting Congress and everyone else about the government’s gunrunning scheme called Fast and Furious. He had to pay for his act of good citizenship. The Justice Department’s inspector general concluded Monday that a high-ranking political appointee destroyed Mr. Dodson’s credibility and ruined a career.

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”

Former Democratic National committee chairman Howard Dean considers the controversy over Benghazi a “joke” and “silly.” “Benghazi is a laughable joke,” Dean proclaimed twice in a discussion with Republican National Committee communications chairman Sean Spicer last week. “With all due respect, governor, when four Americans die serving this country, that’s not a joke, sir,” Spicer responded. “Oh, stop it,” said Dean. The former Democratic presidential candidate also said that there were “no serious questions being asked about Benghazi” and brushed it off as an effort by Republicans to score political points.
