HARTFORD, Conn. – Connecticut officials are urging owners of now-illegal assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines to relinquish them to the police or make them permanently inoperable. The Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection announced Friday it had sent a letter to owners who had failed to register the items by a Jan. 1 deadline, part of last year's gun control law. Officials offered advice on what to do now with the weapons and magazines.

> I feel the same as you. As I told my Preacher last night, “ will not submit”. His reply was I feel the same, if worse come to worse, so be it.
I am not foolish enough to believe that I will make a difference in how things turn out. I will only be another corpse riddled by police bullets. But I will not submit.
We may not make a difference by ourselves but others may take note even if from afar. What they do not want is a vast number of the people with this same mindset. I think we can now understand the jihadist state of mind and that is something they should fear because we are losing our fear of death as we realize what is the most important; liberty or submission to caregivers in name only that have no interest in your welfare whatsoever if you are not a tool.
The Window War: one fictional musing on what might occur.
Why hide them? Clean ‘em, get the magazines loaded, buy some basic load-bearing vests so you can carry a couple of hundred rounds on you on a moment’s notice.
The cops and politicians are badly outnumbered and outgunned here, and they know it.
They are attempting to overthrow the Constitutional Republic, with these idiotic laws/statutes.
Most likely tried to register but received late, so the state refused it.
Then...they get what they deserve, yes?
To LEO’s: “Don’t come to our houses and we won’t go to yours.”
To be accurate the government takes great pains to hide the identity of cops who do this, with the taped over badge numbers, hoods, can't comment on an active investigation, etc. What they don't realize that once this happens it isn't personal against the individual cops who carry out these raids. They will have initiated asymetric war. The gun active owners aren't going to sit around and wait to be overwhelmed by SWAT types 20 to 1.
Once it hits the fan ANY cop is fair game. From the speed trap fund raising personnel to the responders to bank burgular alarms. They're wearing the uniform of the enemy. Look for mines in the favorite speed trap haunts, entire houses set to blow when the house clearing team is inside and other nasty tricks.
The government has been arming the cops with MRAPS from the army for just this sort of thing, but along with that comes the knowledge of IEDS with the self forging penetrators.
PLUS the politicians who passed this will go on the target list. I hope the law is rescinded so it doesn't come to this, but liberal politicans combine stubbornness, stupidity, irresponsibility, and arrogance in the worst possible way.
Just think: the American Revolution began in New England when the British tried to disarm the colonists.
You’re exactly right on all points.
Quite the contrary-—Lincoln authorized all de-activated soldiers to keep their service weapons. He knew they’d need them to forage with on their way back home.
OK you Connecticuts-—time to suck it up and decide if you’re Patriots or patsys. Maybe a summary trial for treason for the first brown shirt that tries to enforce this clusterflock?
Yeah... it’s been tar-&-feather O’clock for a while now.
American politics certainly became less responsive to the people when tar and feathers went out of fashion ...
The problem is that governments think they should rule rather than govern.
That is not a chronic problem ... it seems to have become acute in the last few years.
Unfortunately for the main constituency of Connecticut voters they have opted to serve up to themselves an "eat $hit and die" policy.
Simply put: "You Reap What You Sow"
