Connecticut gun rights activists are using yesterdays report of a home invasion by an on-line southwest Florida news service to bolster their opposition to the Constitution States new gun control law, and today Reason.com is reporting that one police agency is conducting an internal investigation of an officer who said he would like to bang down your door and come after your gun.
This conflict is taking on all the earmarks of an approaching reckoning. The National Rifle Association last week discussed at length the confusion created around the new gun control law. It doesn't help when some folks apparently play games on the Internet.
In an e-mail exchange with Examiner this afternoon, Connecticut Carry President Rich Burgess said next week will see an effort by Connecticut gun owners to ramp up the pressure on the legislature.
Part of that effort may already be underway. On its Facebook page today, Connecticut Carry urges gun owners to write state legislators and tell them about how you feel about being disarmed in the face of these kinds events.
Todays objective of activism, according to the groups Facebook message, is to send those thoughts to every member of the state legislature, and to help in that endeavor, the organization has put all of those e-mail addresses into a cut-and-paste format here.
Burgess famously called on the legislature last week to enforce the law or repeal it. In his e-mail, he suggested that, the state does not have the balls to enforce this law.
Various news reports and blogs over the past several days estimate anywhere between 50,000 and 350,000 Connecticut citizens have failed to register their so-called assault weapons, which could put them in serious legal trouble.

+1 to this post. Great idea.
“Chief, we were going to go on the gun raid, but all the tires of our vehicles are flat.”
“And the windshields were busted too.”
“And all the donut shops were closed.”
The one and only way to get these gun grabbers attention is to throw them out of office...in mass...
-——When the first Connecticut SWAT team is disarmed and sent walking home in their underwear, THEN the legislature will get the message——
As much as I’d like to agree with you....the overlords in Connecticut’s legislation would simply double down on stupid....
They just might have their own Rudy Ridge or Waco....
Correct, but I also think the whole country should show some way to back the brave souls in CT who refuse to comply.
Shout out to all the freedom-loving felons of Connecticut!
Yep, that's helpful alright. So helpful that CT state legislators are going to turn those letters complete with name, address, etc.. right over to the CT State Police/law enforcement agencies as these gun owners self-identify who they are and where their guns reside.
That's an idea, to start a hash tag "ct guns shout out" and see how many would join in.
I know everyone's thinking why don't I do that but I don't have Facebook or Twitter accounts, very off the grid.
Would if I could but we’re waiting for my wife to retire. Once the modern “equipment” is stored off-site, screw the nazis. A younger man than me might want to stay and fight these bastards but now I think it’s best to let them suffer for their folly. When the urban youths of Hartford, New Haven and Bridgeport start to roam, well see howcsafevthe disarmed people feel
Excuse me, what did you say? I was distracted! :)

So cheap even a caveman could afford them.
I do recall we sold an aircraft carrier a few weeks back for $1.00.
Those rigs are heavy, and get lousy fuel mileage and tire life. They were basically built to transport troops over roads potentially containing IEDs.
I suspect they will spend 99.7% of their time in parking lots.
Look at it this way: Gun sales have been way up as of late - part of that surge has to be people getting extras for safe keeping.
Like they give a crap about fuel mileage.
"We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."
Guess who said that.
Hitler?
Close. Obama.
Haven’t been paying attention, have you?
