Connecticut sends out the first confiscation letters

Gun confiscations is one step closer in Connecticut. The mainstream media spins it as “one more chance” for non-compliant gun owners who failed to register their scary guns before the January 1 deadline.

In reality, these letters - 106 to rifle owners, and 108 more to residents with standard capacity magazines – are the first step in the Connecticut State Police beginning to round up guns arbitrarily made illegal last year in that state. These guns include America’s favorite rifle, the AR-15 and magazines over 10 rounds, which include the standard capacity magazines made for that America’s favorite rifle.

Failure to register is now a felony now in Connecticut.

How long will it be before there is bloodshed over this law? We’re not sure, but we’re confident it is coming unless the law is rescinded or struck down by the courts.

So let me get this straight - 214 people are now being punished for attempting to obey the law? And not starting their goose-stepping in time?

This is appallingly dangerous. If these raids follow what appears to be the new paradigm and go in shooting there will be absolutely no reason in the world for gun owners not to shoot first. Insanity.

We’ve received numerous membership renewal requests from NRA within the past several weeks. I’ve not sent my renewal in and I keep asking hubby...why bother? If they’re not stopping the nonsense happening in CT?

"As an NRA Life member, I’m not amused."

As a former NRA member, I was not amused that they so vehemently backed Hemorrhoid Reid in 2010, calling him a stalwart supporter of the 2nd Amendment (or similar verbiage). Look at where that's gotten us -- Obamacare, no filibuster in the Senate, and so on. I'm also not amused that the NRA is steadfastly backing that limp noodle, spineless jellyfish Bitch McConnell in Kentucky.

Protecting our RKBA goes beyond just opposing gun control efforts, but the NRA doesn't understand that. Fortunately, there are other groups that do.

Question is: will their fellow citizens visit the incarcerating facility and bring them home?

Thanks Eaks...that image will be appearing on gun forums across the fruited plain. :)

It’ll retire at about 180K/yr with full state bennies....for her and her *partner.*

Job is so dangerous, *it* thanks goodness *IT* gets to go home at night.

I’m a GOA Life member and contribute to the SAF and JPFO as well.

I cover my bases...

As it stands right now, the best estimates are that 4% of newly-regulated guns and magazines in The Nutmeg State have been registered, leaving a hundred thousand or more newly classified potential felons looking over their shoulder.

Even when the testicle have to be drawn on with a magic marker?

[wku man]

Yep...the GOA now gets my membership $$$s. If I had the means, I'd support the other two as well.

Time to start shooting.

Thank you! That is one disgusting letter from the nutcase state. That whole mess needs to be on the Supreme court docket and shoved back up the backside of whomever created it.

Connecticut is now known as the Tyranny State.

Sic Semper Tyrannis.

It appears the CSP likes to style themselves as some kind of uber-gunfighter with the exposed and cartridges-forward standard-capacity magazines they carry.

That sort of gear is what makes the "P" in "USPSA" something of a joke ...

I have no way of knowing.
Maybe a coincidence. Maybe he’ll do what he is ordered to do, when the SHTF.
