New CT gun laws target mags

[JoeT]

I just wrote my new representatives (we moved here last month)

My email explained that I've been a legal gun owner for 23 years and have carried almost every day for 19. I've lived in 7 states in those years, payed more than my fair share in taxes, and have voted in EVERY election. With this signing of law they have turned me into a felon. I will not comply with their registration and feel good gun laws that will do nothing to prevent additional tragedies or crime

I expect a no-knock soon

Your title should have read: CT starts the first step like CO towards outlawing Gun ownership. How ANYONE can say they represent the people and vote, let alone introduce, ANY GUN LAW is beyond amazing.

Because they don't represent the people, they represent themselves, and we all have to listen to them, as they know what's best for 320 million people...

Ah, CT - the state where even if you did get a concealed carry permit, allowing that weapon to even print under your clothing results in a brandishing charge.

People don't get it. We keep getting told to be reasonable while they ignore the fact that we've been reasonable for over 90 years of slowly tightening gun laws and are sick of it.

Sadly, the issue is just like abortion....folks are on one side or the other and there is little you can say/do that will convince one side or the other.

So no, I have absolutely no doubt that this is the long term goal.

Except that this side of the issue (our side) is the one that is supposedly protected by the 2nd Amendment, and not open to "interpretation." I mean, seriously, I don't see any other way to view "Shall not be infringed." And I count any legislation, past or present, that does exactly that, "infringe" upon the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights, to be unconstitutional and wrong... But of course there's really nothing I as one man can do about it.
