At about 9 p.m., in the Bromley section, an ongoing feud between a man and his former wife flared into the street with the husband being attacked by a group of up of to 13 males, two of them armed with baseball bats, police said.
Just another day in Trenton. However, if New Jersey adopts Pennsylvania's proposed law, every perpetrator would at least face a $25 fine. (Which is more than they're going to get, even if they're caught.)

Yeah, I remember those days. That would have been nothing special, 20 yrs ago when we moved up here from Philly. Even today, probably 25+% of the folks do not lock their house at night - let alone their cars. 'Course, we are in the middle of an area where just about everybody hunts - that means just about everyone has guns.
Hmmmmm, was it some town in Texas that handgun ownership became mandatory a few years ago and they saw the crime rate go down?
