Massachusetts goes full retard

The Massachusetts assault weapons ban mirrors the federal ban Congress allowed to expire in 2004. It prohibits the sale of specific weapons like the Colt AR-15 and AK-47 and explicitly bans “copies or duplicates” of those weapons. But gun manufacturers have taken it upon themselves to define what a “copy” or “duplicate” weapon is. They market “state compliant” copycat versions of their assault weapons to Massachusetts buyers. They sell guns without a flash suppressor or folding or telescoping stock, for example, small tweaks that do nothing to limit the lethalness of the weapon.

Short version: What was legal to sell on Tuesday is banned today. Fucktards!

Scary part is, it only took an un-elected AG to make it happen.
We'll see if it sticks.

Questions about her authority to do this:

Talk about a broad decision....

The directive specifically outlines two tests to determine what constitutes a “copy” or “duplicate” of a prohibited weapon. If a gun’s operating system is essentially the same as that of a banned weapon, or if the gun has components that are interchangeable with those of a banned weapon, it’s a “copy” or “duplicate,” and it is illegal. Assault weapons prohibited under our laws cannot be altered in any way to make their sale or possession legal in Massachusetts.

That could easily apply to almost every firearm in existence.

When everything is against the law, nothing is against the law.

BTW, you could power NYC with the founding fathers turning over in their grave.

Here's another look at it: http://www.independentsentinel.com/t...ns-ar-15s-aks/

Healey claims that: In the face of utter inaction by Congress, states have a duty to enact and enforce laws that protect people from gun violence. If Washington won’t use its power to get these guns off our streets, we will. Not only do we have the legal authority to do so, we have a moral obligation to do so.

She has a moral obligation to uphold the Constitution and she has no legal right to pass laws which is what she is doing.

Glad I don't live in MA!! Wish S&W and any other firearm/related company there would move out and take their employees with them (yeah pie-in-the-sky wishing but it'd be nice).

That AG should be recalled.

If Hillary takes away our guns, will the Muslims kill all the gays? Sometimes I think the Russians have it right. The way I was raised with the Cold War mentality, the Russians were the bad guys. Now it is obvious that the biggest threat exists within this nation. The Massachusetts AG is Maura Healey is a lesbian according to wikipedia. I would not use my semi automatic weapon to defend her if Muslims were going to kill her for being homosexual. People like her are the ENEMY! As much a threat to the American way of life as ISIS. I'm sure she has an armed state trooper guarding her in her office. Not to mention her gay partner is a judge. The Massachusetts constituents need to educate themselves before they let people like Maura Healey in power. OP is right "Full Retard"

I bet some of her dildos have some "assault rifle" type of features. Hopefully they will be banned under the new "law".

Funny to hear lesbians speak of "moral obligation..."
