Why even allow serfs to have weapons at this rate?

Remind me how registering Nancy Lanzas firearms would have prevented Sandy Hook, besides confiscation?

Lanza fired 152 rounds....meaning he reloaded at least 5 times. This magazine capacity nonsense is a red herring.

Bruce Lee carried a .357 magnum everywhere once he became famous as the guy no one could beat in a fight.

Chuck Norris is well known as a pro-gun advocate, and in response to a reporter’s ironic question, “If someone broke into your house, would you use your roundhouse kick?” he replied, “No, I’d use my 10 gauge.”

The political correct nonsense of this report is best illustrated by the following.

"...the commonality of high-capacity firearms in violent crimes must be acknowledged. According to the 2011 Connecticut Uniform Crime Reporting Program, only two (2) of 94 firearm-related homicides in the state were committed with a rifle or a shotgun. It is the consensus of the Commission that firearm lethality is correlated to capacity, a correlation borne out not only in Sandy Hook Elementary School, but in other violent confrontations in and beyond Connecticut. Therefore, the Commission believes that the State of Connecticut should carefully consider:

10. Prohibiting the possession, sale or transfer of any firearm capable of firing more than 10 rounds without reloading. This prohibition would extend to military-style firearms as well as handguns. Law enforcement and military would be exempt from this ban..."

Never have understood what value there would be in registration of firearms ~ beyond doing that just before confiscation for too much First Amendment stuff.

Think about it ~ guy goes in school; shoots kids. Cops look at the firearms and say "was this registered"? Or, Cops see dead kids and say "check all registered firearms".

Nothing happens that way, particularly when the perp is also dead.

Another recommendation from the commission is a gun-transfer program. Understanding that illegal guns are usually obtained by the poor without the means to legally purchase a gun, the commission recommends that rich gun owners should be forced to turn-in their weapons and the weapons will be refurbished and provided to the poor. Additionally, a 300% tax should be levied on all ammo sales. The ratio of rich gun owners to poor is 1:3, hence the tax will be invested in ammo distribution programs targeted towards those with insufficient means.

Sarcasm tag for those in Rio Linda and CT.

An advisory panel reviewing the deadly Newtown school shooting for Connecticut's governor on Monday recommended requiring registration of all firearms in the state and mandating all its K-12 classrooms have doors that can be locked from the inside.

Whoa. How clever can you get?

“mandating all its K-12 classrooms have doors that can be locked from the inside.”

Now the perps can hold more victims captive and an armed opposition can’t get to them...
