They just keep pushing.


Gun confiscations is one step closer in Connecticut.� The mainstream media spins it as �one more chance� for non-compliant gun owners who failed to register their scary guns before the January 1 deadline.

In reality, these letters -�106 to rifle owners, and 108 more to residents with standard capacity magazines � are the first step in the Connecticut State Police beginning to round up guns arbitrarily made illegal last year in that state.� These guns include America�s favorite rifle, the AR-15 and magazines over 10 rounds, which include the standard capacity magazines made for that America�s favorite rifle.

Failure to register is now a felony now in Connecticut.

How long will it be before there is bloodshed over this law?� We�re not sure, but we�re confident it is coming unless the law is rescinded or struck down by the courts.

Mike Vanderboegh of the edgy Sipsey Street Irregulars released an open letter a couple of weeks ago, warning of what�s coming to Connecticut.� The Connecticut State Police aren�t listening.� Yet.

We suspect attitudes may change after the first few rounds of bloodshed.

As it stands right now, the best estimates are that 4% of newly-regulated guns and magazines in The Nutmeg State have been registered, leaving a hundred thousand or more newly classified potential felons looking over their shoulder.

Don't worry, the police will not confiscate their guns, they believe in the second amendment too. Lots of them will even stand up for the citizens...

The last time Conn citizens stood up against a tyrannical Gov't was 1776.

They can't lock them all up and if they send police swat squads out for them we all have decisions to make.

I doubt it, their careers are more important to them than constitutional rights are.

I might tend to agree with you if we were only talking about local police and county Sheriff's deputies....

I know it is not exactly the same situation, but I wonder how many LEO refused to follow orders at Ruby Ridge and Waco. If the higher ups want something done, and the rank and file refuses, the higher ups will just find someone else who will do their dirty work.

Their careers are more important to them than "YOUR" constitutional rights.
Most LEO's will do what they are told wether they believe in the 2nd or not. Stalin had many willing to do his bidding so they could eat, stay warm and just have the opportunity to kick someone in the head.

We have people like Isaac on here saying that Universal Registration is something we can compromise on. Then we have this. In 1968 the Gun Control Act was passed but gun owners were told that the 4472's that were to be generated by it were never going to be used for registration, let alone confiscation. Unless Connecticut has some state paperwork, then the 4472's are exactly what are to be used for confiscation.

My take on it is this...there will be several quick test cases where the person having their guns confiscated will have compromises making it look like they deserved it in the news media. Maybe somebody who technically was not a legal gun owner anyway. This will make it more palatable to the average guy. Some people will get killed. Lot of gun owners will get scared and cave. Sorry to be negative, but that's how I see it.

Where is Tedster? I mean, he would have been excellent as a General in the Nam, if it weren't for all that [bleep] his pants to avoid going thing. Why isn't Ted up there telling the gun owners what to do?

They will poll their officers and those that are in lock-step with the gun-grabbers will be promoted to a jack-booted raid squads. Bet on it.

Looks like this might get interesting, also looks like some folks (Leo and Civilians) have a decision to make.

Those naive enough to believe that any substantial number of LEOs will side with citizens and the Constitution rather than their government checks needs to read this current thread about government pensions:

It seems like there is more interest in Doc's non-vacation and whether TAK is "real" than there is in this threat. Make no mistake, this one state threat is a threat to all gun owners, just like Connecticut threatening one citizen of their state is a threat to all their citizens. This is real-time.
