CT: confiscation looming...

[mrjarrell]

Is this really happening or is this BS? Is it time to go outside yet???

Are the Indiana cops coming for your guns? Unless you live in CT I'd say you have nothing to worry about.

They don"t have much to worry about in Connecticut either...

My crazy family's been screaming this for years, I'm still waiting...

 

[Tombs]

I wonder what would have happened if our founders just buried their guns and bowed to the almighty state, like so many here would advocate?

Those in CT have the clearest justification since the revolution to fight back.

When they came for the CT guns, I didnt live in CT so I said nothing....

So, you gonna load up your horses and head for the Alamo to protect the gun owners in Danberry? Yeah.....

 

[Cameramonkey]

Point missed.

 

[Trigger Time]

One must wonder... will LEO's in CT enforce an unconstitutional law with door to door raids? How will this look for the 'we aren't coming for your guns" crowd?

No don't wonder IF they will one bit. I wonder WHEN it will start. But I'm sure they're good people and good Americans. Yep.

Official CT State Police spokesman says that state police would participate in door to door gun confiscations

maybe I'm a pessimist, but I'm curious to see how a confiscation attempt would work. Will people really fight back? What does fighting back look like? If a truck full of cops beats your door in at 1am whats the plan then?

 

[armedindy]

what happens when the first person in CT is killed by a trigger happy cop simply because he believed in the second amendment the way it is written and believed that any laws violating it are void...(a guy who didnt fight back, but got shot cellphone in hand, because the cops were jumpy knowing they were going to deal with "right wing extremists")

Will people fight back? Unlikely. They've seen the results of that. The cops will kill everyone and burn your house down. It's unlikely that people will even resist. They'll meekly hand over their guns to officer friendly and hope they don't get gang shagged in jail. Wait for the courts to settle everything. That's what they've been told by everyone for their entire lives.

You clearly don't live in Washington County...

 

[mrjarrell]

Nope. And I'm willing to bet that most people there would not resist either. Talk is cheap. Are Washington countians ready to pop officer Friendly and sheriff Bob? I doubt it. If they won't stop them from kidnapping family they won't stop them from taking guns.

So they kill ya, big deal. Slavery would be worse. I think you severely undersetimate people. We really do only need 3%.

 

[indykid]

So let's say that only 1% of the 350,000 firearm owners decide to fight for their rights. If each one opens fire with their Connecticut deemed illegal rifles, and they take out two uniformed civilians before they themselves are taken out, many families will live forever with the pain of lost loved ones over illegal laws, and it would not take too long for Connecticut to look really bad, as well as running out of uniformed civilians willing to risk their lives enforcing an unconstitutional law.

I keep praying it never comes down to this.

 

[armedindy]

this thread should probably be a bit careful..i'd like to keep discussing and monitoring the issue in CT, but i dont wanna have to jump from thread to thread

It never needs to come to this as there's plenty that can be done now to stop it. Who would come to take the guns? The police.
That means the police need a clear and respectful understanding with the public about the line in the sand. Not just some, not just a majority, but all of them.

And that understanding must not be changed by ANY kind of legislation.

The alternative is what you are describing.
