To date, Malloy and his allies in the legislature who rammed through these strict gun control laws largely remain silent on the fact that the citizenry has simply ignored them. What else can they do?

They can REPEAL the law.

How can elected officials be so out of touch with the electorate UNLESS massive voter fraud is ongoing?

thanks lucian this is a must read.....{you know I see a lot of cases of ‘blue flu’ popping up if they order the cops out to enforce this unpopular law}

-- How can elected officials be so out of touch with the electorate UNLESS massive voter fraud is ongoing? --

They have the courts, police, and all the legitimacy that comes from being the state - the entity that is authorized to use force of violence to impose its will. All sort of unpopular laws are passed and enforced, this is just one more.

They are not out of touch. They just expected business as usual. You know, lie to get elected and then issue edicts from on high that the sheeple will just roll over and obey.

The recently enacted anti-gun laws of CT, NY, NJ and other states with Democrat majority legislators & Democrat governors have made felons out of their citizens who merely own now banned guns and magazines. The new laws do nothing to change how thugs, mugs & crazies commit violence against mostly innocent citizens.

There was a time when citizens obeyed laws passed by their elected administrators, believing they would do "what was right" on their behalf. Now, these "administrators" purchase their positions through PAC's with agenda's, running roughshod over the people who (supposedly) elected them and that they are supposed to represent and "do the will of".

Now, the people have decided these cronyistic and totalitarian laws are at the minimum meaningless, and at the worse enslavement.

The Rule of Law is Dead. It was killed by those who were sworn to uphold it, and have failed miserably, and I believe by design. Without the people believing in the rule of law, these administrative fools have only the threat of arrest, imprisonment, and prosecution under their unjust and unequally applied laws (see what their bodyguards are carrying for weapons!). This misapplication is usually in their favor or that of their "buddies", and end up lining their pockets as well...

In their push for more power and control, they will end up with neither, and will face the wrath of the people they seek to enslave...

Here is a four part series of what might happen in Connecticut that takes a much more pessimistic view:

Connecticut:The Coming Storm

[KrisKrinkle]

“What else can they do?”

They can wait.

People aren’t going to take banned items to the range so they will lose competency and be less able to pass their knowledge and interest on to the next generation.

They can cause extra trouble for those involved in “difficult” divorces, when an aggrieved spouse “rats them out” and wants their weapons confiscated because they feel endangered.

They may have an extra charge to levy if banned items are uncovered in pursuit of another violation.

Compliance with Tyranny is Treason.
