Non-Compliance in New York and Connecticut

[Spear Dane]

So, in another thread on this subject I asked for information on this very thing, which I never got...but low and behold, the lord has provided my answer.

Interesting.

Thanks for posting.

Excellent! If citizens of New York and Connecticut don't comply, imagine the compliance rate in red states, should this be attempted nationally.

FIFY

Makes sense. In the future I suspect boat rental fees will be going up due to demand.

Well.....considering there is no such animal as an "Assault Weapon" I can see this.

They better roll out the troops and start going door to door...

 

[Leadeye]

Interesting info, it makes me wonder if any state would ever go door to door serving warrants and tossing homes.

Anti gun politicians don't care about short term compliance rates, they are in it for what they perceive as the immediate political gain, and the long term consequences to the gun culture. What good is a gun you have to keep hidden in a closet?

Read the article. It seems most are still going to the range with their unregistered "assault" rifles, and many local police/sheriff departments have said that they will refuse to enforce this particular law.

Most of my guns stay in a safe or a drawer nearly 100% of the time. Doesn't mean they don't serve a purpose.

Let's hope we don't have to rely on enforcement descression by the police to go to the range with our "assault" rifles. I prefer to exercise my rights in accordance with the law.

Let's not forget Massachusetts and their Bump stock ban.
Very few turned in.


I explained this to a friend who is okay with pistols (only because she needed one), but not with those "assault weapons".
I pointed out these 3 instances and asked if she wanted to have to build all the prisons necessary, hire all the guards necessary, and pay a LOT MORE taxes because those people were going to go from taxpayers to taxpayer expenses.

Actually there is. Proper name. The StG44 "Sturmgewehr 44" developed by the Germans near the end of WW2. Roughly translates to "Assault Rifle."

By the same logic, all tanks are Panzers, all pistols are Lugers (sorry Glock fanboys, it's a Luger, too), and in the late 60's we sent astronauts to the moon on top of a Vengeance Weapon.

Try that in California. A few years back if cops saw someone shooting an AR at the range they'd step in and ask to examine the rifle to make sure it was CA-compliant. After I relocated, when the dust settled from the move I removed the KBD and am happier for it.

The anti-gun libs are playing the long game. It's not worth the trouble or controversy to fight or confiscate banned weapons. The less its in the news, the less chance of stirring up opposition.

They are happy to have these "illegal guns" turned in and picked up as other circumstances bring them to light, however long that may take.

This will be how they do it everywhere, if allowed. There won't be many fights or confiscations. They are perfectly happy waiting for all of us to die, while we raise our children to be law abiding.

I prefer that laws don't exist that put me in legal jeopardy for exercising my rights that exist regardless of government laws and regulations.

 

[Litebow]

I believe we are saying the same thing .

I prefer that laws don't exist that put me in legal jeopardy for exercising my rights that exist regardless of government laws and regulations.

East Coast gun control isn't about "fighting crime"; it is about fighting cultural wars.

You, the productive class who may have different opinions than your elite ruling class, are the enemy and must be controlled.

People go across borders buy guns and bring them into our state. Guns have no borders.
Yup. National borders are like that.
And guns can be made in garages.

A bunch of those comments were disappointing. Too many statist that bought in to the "government can solve all problems."
