I guess the sheeple who are now doing the buying didn't think anything bad could happen in the Peoples' Democracy of CT. Evil goes wherever it wants, and THE POLICE WILL NOT do a damn thing to protect you. Their job is to raise traffic revenue and arrest criminals AFTER THE FACT (if they can find them)
Hoffman said that the most popular weapon for both men and women looking to defend themselves is a defense-grade shotgun. Hoffman credited the gun's popularity to the short waiting period -- it can be obtained in two weeks as opposed to waiting 90 days for a pistol permit.
What is the waiting period in CT for home invasions? Do the criminals have to wait two weeks after first checking with the owner? 90 Days if they're going to murder one or more people?
I'm going to do a little gloating here and point out one of the many diffrences between the police state of CT and ga. Last time I purchased a handgun (H&K USP .40) I went to the gun shop plunked down the money, underwent the unconstitutional instant background check and walked out 10 minutes later with the gun. I did have to wait when I bought my UZI - about two and a half months.
Get the shotgun first and the pistol second.
Then work on eliminating the enemies of the constitution as elected lawwmakers. By elimination, I mean using only lawful means.
