Connecticut to Confiscate

May be bold, but if it makes you dig deeper into the matter, so be it. Do some reading on those two events, and you'll see the lessons learned from their early attempts.

I'd expect most half-heartedly comply. If told to go door to door, how many are going to have the stomach to search when the owner says "I have nothing"?
There will be some who enthusiastically bust folks, and some who look the other way. I'd think almost all would rather do real policing, though.

What if they were been threatened to lost their job?

Some people have principals and integrity, some don't.

You are either a cop (or soldier, etc.) or one of the little people. One is armed to the teeth with huge resources and the other is on his own. Move along, nothing to see here.


TEA

I'm wondering how this will affect CT's compliance with federal Safe Transport laws. Will it be like NJ, where you risk your freedom even if you follow all the federal laws that are supposed to guarantee safe passage?

Back on point, I researched my own question: CT does have it's own "database" via the "Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection". However in my brief search, I did not find how long the state had been collecting data ( I seen 1993 mentioned somewhere).

Which leads me to another question: how much data does the CBI collect?

Remember, those background checks are destroyed after approval or denial, right?

Police hear "I've got nothing," and "It wasn't me," and "That's not mine," all day, every day so it isn't likely to make a difference.

Let the legislators be on the front line to kick in doors and see if their tune changes.

So, the real question is after all this great discussion: What are are you going to do between now and November here in Colorado? Anyone of those people that voted in favor of those laws last year needs to be ousted from office, and you know who I am talking about too. Those pro-gun candidates need support, manpower, and money.
