Seven more days. Tick, tick, tick...
The assault weapons ban will live on in MA. It was a compromise measure worked out with the State in trade for some sanity in licensing -- six years instead of four; a 90 day grace period; a review board, and a few other things.
Who thinks there will be a mass killing with the killer using an "assault weapon" in the next few days?
Unfortunately, even if it does sunset....they will write another one & try to pass it in every session until they get the votes.
Am I too cynical? I hope I am wrong.
THIS CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN.
These are OUR Rights we are talking about here. This is a chance for the system to work in our favor instead of increasingly against us.
In addition to their bodyguards, of course. Taxpayer expense?
It's not dead yet, and we all got to work our butts off to make sure it DOES die.
As much as we would like to think the AWB will sunset, Do not be complacent! Schumer and Feinstein will make sure to bring up this issue in congress and will probably filibuster and disrupt the proceedings until the whiners get their way! Be vigilant and watch closely. This is not over yet!
Anxiously awaiting..........This is precisely the reason that I did not "add to the collection" as I know prices will come back down
Thank GOD Clinton's semi-auto ban is about to take the eternal (let'shope and work for) "dirt nap". If it gets renewed, let's hope that ol' Bill gets struck down with a heart attack or something :) As far as celebrating with some Scotch, I'll second that. I never really liked Scotch, and have never personally bought any, but I've got a friend who is a Scotch GURU, and I have tried many different makers while at his house. However, if it looks like the s0-called Assault WeaponsScotch of mine, McCallen, and tilt a few in honor of the passing of this useless piece of liberal feel-good legislation.
