The Blaze says they believe this is a hoax... they could not find a “peace officers association” in Connecticut.

Do you have a link for that? I tried to google "blaze connecticut police refuse" but all I got was an article "http://www.examiner.com/article/civil-disobedience-thousands-refuse-to-register-assault-weapons-conn" which didn't mention that.

Would be interested in seeing what they had to say.

And then there's this article: http://www.examiner.com/article/noted-author-calls-situation-conn-terrifying that I got when googling what I said above.

"I honestly thought from my own standpoint that the vast majority would register," said Sen. Tony Guglielmo, R-Stafford, the ranking GOP senator on the legislature's public safety committee. "If you pass laws that people have no respect for and they don't follow them, then you have a real problem."

Alexander says that many prosecutors and law enforcement officers will refuse to enforce the new laws. Some are on record to that effect, having signed their names to various documents and petitions promising to ignore violations of the new gun control laws. Oathkeepers, for example, is one such organization that numbers among its membership members of law enforcement and military who have vowed to uphold their oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution over the orders of tyrants who would fly in the face of settled Constitutional law.

So we shall see what happens.
