<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nSunday morning, Tahaji Wells, a gangster who had been released from prison recently despite a 2004 conviction for manslaughter which came with a 18-year sentence, opened fire on an opponent from a rival gang, injuring 22 people at an art festival. According to Fox News<\/a>, Wells had another six years tacked on his sentence for his criminal behavior in prison – that’s a 24-year sentence, but math is hard in New Jersey, apparently. <\/p>\n Phil Murphy, the new governor of New Jersey wasted no time blaming a lack of gun control for the shoot-em-up in Trenton. New Jersey has, arguably, some of the toughest gun laws in the country and Murphy had just signed six new gun laws last week – but that didn’t stop him from blaming guns laws;<\/p>\n New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy responded to Sunday’s deadly shooting at a Trenton arts festival by calling for new controls on guns. But a suspect\u2019s gang membership — and early release from prison after Murphy took office — may have been bigger factors in an incident that left one person dead and 22 wounded.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Murphy — a first-term Democrat in his first elected office — supports shorter sentences for offenders and cuts in prisoner rehabilitation programs…Less than 24 hours after the gunfire, Murphy — a former Goldman Sachs banker who served as President Barack Obama’s ambassador to Germany — began calling for gun control without addressing the other circumstances involved in the crime.<\/p>\n “It’s yet another reminder of the senseless gun violence, even having signed six stringent gun laws last week,” Murphy said at a news conference Sunday following a service at Trenton’s Galilee Baptist Church.<\/p>\n During the service, he said he “and many others around this state are committed to ending this scourge of gun violence\u201d and urged the Congress to take action on guns “as a national matter.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n You know, because it’s easier to write more legislation than it is to enforce existing laws.<\/p>\n Did I mention that Murphy stripped funding from a program designed to help criminals return to the civilian life with marketable skills? Well, he did. Look at that skull – Murphy looks like a criminal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
