Fox News has finally reported that Connecticut has sent out gun confiscation letters.
The letters tell gun owners of now-illegal assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines to relinquish the arms to the police or make them permanently inoperable.
Hundreds of thousands of residents have yet to comply with the new law, which they were required to do by Jan. 1st of this year – turning them all into felons overnight.
What your next move Connecticut?
Connecticut officials are urging owners of now-illegal assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines to relinquish them to the police or make them permanently inoperable.The Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection announced Friday it had sent a letter to owners who had failed to register the items by a Jan. 1 deadline, part of last year’s gun control law. Officials offered advice on what to do now with the weapons and magazines.
The letter says gun owners are in compliance with the new state law if their items are no longer in Connecticut or were sold to an authorized gun dealer.
Those who fail to comply face charges of possessing an unregistered assault weapon and/or high capacity magazine.
Commissioner Dora Schriro denied rumors DESPP is confiscating weapons.
Did no one read this article? They are confiscating “now-illegal assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines.” These guns are ILLEGAL what don’t you people understand about that. Furthermore, why on earth does anyone need guns like this? Is it totally lost on everyone in this country why the gun related deaths in the US in 2010 was 31,076 and Austrailia had 40? You want to hunt? Fine. You want to feel safe? Great. You don’t need AR-15’s and other large and/or automatic type guns to do it. You may feel like I’m stepping on the 2nd Amendment, but where’s my right to be in an environment free from guns in the wrong hands? It’s very scary to me that stricter standards to obtain a weapon are not set. Yes, I know they be obtained illegally, blah, blah, blah, but it’s pretty sad when in this country people are more worried about their precious guns than the really severe issues that we have. Perhaps we should spend more time being kind to one another,and helping to make this country a better one than worrying about how many and what type of guns we’re allowed to have. Why do you need so many guns? I love cars, but I don’t have a whole garage full of them. We are a country that lives in ridiculous excess and selfishness. Buy a gun to hunt and protect yourself. Don’t be a jerk. Be nice to others and do your part to make others around you good people. Then maybe you won’t have to worry about being so heavily armed.
.i well not comply.
That’s what Obama wants, a revolution! That ways he can call for Marshall law and get the military involved. He will use the drones on civilians.
