Manasquan, NJ –-(Ammoland.com)- The State of Connecticut says that all citizens must register rifles and high capacity magazines, or be charged will a felony. As many as 350,000 people could face heavily armed police smashing down their doors and be charged with a felony.

The legislature of Connecticut says that a registration is needed so they can know where the guns are. Yet at the same time, they are sending threatening letters to gun owners. So they already have records of who has purchased certain guns. The fact is, that the Connecticut legislature fully intends to confiscate hundreds of thousands of firearms anyway. The registration process will simply make it easier to confiscate, because you acknowledge that you still own a firearm that the state already suspects that you own.

In a recorded phone call Connecticut State Police Spokesman Lt. Vance was reached at at (860) 685-8290 and says that state police would comply with an order from the state to conduct door to door gun confiscations.

Experts claim that as many as 350,000 people are in violation of the law, and over 100,000 of those people could face felony charges. That means over 3.6% of the entire adult population of Connecticut has been transformed into a felon by the new registration law. Roughly one in twenty Connecticut homes could have their doors smashed in by heavily armed law enforcement seeking to confiscate firearms.

It sounds like the people in these states need to mobilize and get an early warning system to protect there neighbors. I have planned for this in Texas with my neighbors and we are armed to the teeth Many of my neighbors and friends were combat engineers and we have a great surprise for our honored guest that are not welcome. Come as you are but bring your personal body bag with deodorant since I will not bury you.

I wrote a letter to the Governor asking him to reconsider this unconstitutional law. I reminded him that we have the right to keep and bear arms and that it would not be a good day for anyone if law enforcement tried to confiscate citizens weapons. If we give in to this tyranny we deserve to be slaves to the government oppressors. An oathkeeper however would never take a mans weapon or defy the constitution.

US Veteran

I would suggest that they stop and think this through completely. Jumping into this thinking they have the upper hand may be a grave mistake.

Violators The Constitution will have a target on there backs. defending the ideas of this Constitution Government over seas what make you think we will not defend them RIGHT HERE
So really think about what your going to start here cause it will not end well for anyone.

They are taking guns over a completely staged event, with no bodies, blood or death certificates. Did you see any funerals on TV ? No . . .

Earnest Roberts

here we go again.. first shot heard ’round the world.. get ready for action! We the people should all rise up and declare that we are all from Connecticut! These gun grabbers are unlawful, treasonous terrorists from within our ranks.. dispel them all when they come knocking.. they fully are aware of the use of lethal force hidden between the lines of our greatest 2nd Amendment! The fool in this case is the gun grabber who comes knocking!

Buck

If the governor of CT orders the state police to confiscate weapons the he/she and the police officers need to be removed immediately by any means necessary.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to… Read more »

McDonald v. Chicago, 561 U.S. 3025 (2010), is a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States that determined whether the Second Amendment applies to the individual states. The Court held that the right of an individual to “keep and bear arms” protected by the Second Amendment is incorporated by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and applies to the states. The decision cleared up the uncertainty left in the wake of District of Columbia v. Heller as to the scope of gun rights in regard to the states.

SWAT teams are real macho when they descend in force on peaceful unarmed raw-milk farmers and such. i think Porky “don’t-ask-questions-about-sandy-hoax” Vance should lead his queer gestapo against these armed-to-the-teeth mad-as-hell American Patriots.

As Capt. John Parker said at Lexington Greene, “If they mean to have a war, let it begin here”, Connecticut is ripe for this war. I fear it is coming, but I WILL NOT SURRENDER my guns< I WILL NOT re-register my guns to no man or unconstitutional law! I fought for my Country, two tours Viet Nam, not afraid to die again! So bring it on Commie Malloy and your henchmen! Bring it on!

The FEDS and State officials who swore to up hold the Constitution, need to read the Book “The Constitution of The United States” published by the National Center For Constitutional Studies. Thomas Jefferson an “ORIGINAL” signer of the Constitution says in the book, “On every question of construction, [let us] carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it passed”! Seems to me our politicians needs… Read more »

I still want to know, what the hell is an assault weapon? Perhaps Gov. Malloy can clarify because most gun owners I am acquainted with are likewise baffled.

I have a feeling that the State Police will make matters worse and begin the next American Revolution in this country with the kicking in of doors and shooting of Ct Citizens who, until Dec 31st, didn’t break any laws and had legal weapons and Magazine. It will escalate to other states and the politicians will be hiding under their beds, wishing they had a gun because you know someone is going to come for them. After all, now their names, addresses and pictures on on line. What goes around, comes around. Its not the law abiding people the politicians… Read more »

Very similar to what the Nazi’s did prior to WWII. Made all gun owners register in the name of “public safety” and then right before the ole crap hit the fan, went and rounded up all the guns!

Ed

The law states that taking you gun out of state is one of the solutions. So they are going to kick down doors not know whether that gun is there or not? Boy I can see the lawsuits flying now. BTW I do not advocate registering or getting rid of guns, but if someone did take the gun out of state are you supposed to inform the government of that action?

“That’s what we have attorney’s for” Here’s an excerpt from a letter I wrote “Public Records” that can be found in my Facebook Notes. I used to be big on freedom of information issues related to Public Documents. What Lt. Vance is basically telling her is to go screw herself: “My County Supervisor is Barbara Riordon. Ray Millian, the aide that was assigned to talk with, me has not responded to my repeated requests that this issue, (cost of copies), be addressed. All San Bernardino County Supervisors have also recieved complaints about county fees from me. When I inquired about… Read more »

Thugs Any “peace officer” who tries to enforce this should be treated as the Nazi collaborator that he is. When they start knocking on doors in the dark of night all bets should be off. They are not the law; they are the enemy. They are no longer cops. They have crossed the line. It’s as simple as that. I’ve been going to city and county meetings for years. I’ve seen how cops are just tickled pink to act as goons for corrupt officials and go after citizens who exhibit any signs of free speech. In relation to an unrelated… Read more »

Can anyone tell me, sarcasm aside, what problem gun registration allegedly solves or, at least, mitigates? In other words, how many crimes involving guns in the state of Connecticut have gone unsolved that would’ve theoretically been solved were the gun(s) involved register.

This strikes me as one of those knee jerk reactions that Siva good abs reasonable to the frightened, unthinking types but when you look at theactual statistics of the problem the law is allegedly intended to solve, it doesn’t add up.

Anyone?

Charlie

If they already have the records and who has what and serial numbers; why do they need registration? For taxation and confiscation only.

Bruce Wood

If the State of Connecticut is going to make you a felon, unable to purchase a gun legally though not unconstitutionally, it is time to preserve your ability to defend yourself, your family, your state, country, and the Constitution. You won’t be able to equip yourself toward those ends if you sit quietly as you are stripped of your rightly owned arms. It appears it is too late to legislatively defeat or judicially put asunder this onerous law. The ground you stand on is now the last ground you may be able to stand on. Once you are a felon,… Read more »

Danny Goshop

My eyes water up as I read so many law abiding gun owners comments of how they have had enough of these lies from the left. “Registration does not mean confiscation” they’ve told us all these years…well now they seem to be showing their true colors, they want to confiscate the legal guns of law abiding citizens. What was legal and fine with the CT Gov’t one day, is illegal and wrong the next, all with the swipe of a pen. Overnight, hundreds of thousands of CT citizens went from law abiding to felons. I cry Bull Sh*t! I fear… Read more »

None of you are going to do a damn thing other than register your guns…..period.

Thatguy

I predict police getting shot and killed by some people, if the police do that. Maybe that’s what needs to happen, I’m sure it would send the government a message not f with the people who pay you.

MontieR

All I have heard for 30 year is they don’t want to take away your guns, It’s just some common sense laws, It’s for the children. One big thirty year line of bull excrement. You are disgusting LIARS and are hell bent on forcing a civil war that you WILL ultimately LOOSE. ENOUGH lies. Start removing ANY politician who does not grasp AND understand why the constitution was written.

DrSique

Lemme see if I have this right. Connecticut and New York passed these stupid, and in my opinion unconstitutional, laws to stem gun violence and now intend to send armed men to people’s homes to do violence upon them. Must be liberal logic. I wonder what the odds makers, in Vegas, are posting on state troopers vs. a couple hundred thousand armed citizens.

freewill2

hopefully those 350k gun owners unite. the gestapo cops could meet their doomsday. send the message we are peaceful until you come to break the peace!

Laurie Raines

NOW you know one of the many reasons WHY responsible gun owners in Michigan are fighting to STOP the dangerous Senate Bill 789 (our state police are under the command of an open gun control advocate!)! The NRA-ILA admits on their own website that the MSP are Gun-Control, NOT citizen 2nd Amendment-friendly! Will YOU be responsible for endangering the lives of Michigan gun owners & our rights too? I pray you will reconsider and openly join us to strongly oppose Michigan’s misguided Senate Bill 789 of 2014 that turns our gun rights over to the same kind of mindset you… Read more »

This is a very sad day in America. I never thought i’d live long enough to see “Storm-Troopers” coming to knock down our ( We the People )’s doors to try to take our guns. The guns that the state has deemed illegal, without being registered, are NOT illegal per the Constitution, therefore the state has already infringed on the 2nd Amendment just by passing that law. I can assure you that there will be blood spilled on the front steps of the citizens of the United States when they try to carry this out. The mentality of the gov’t.… Read more »

yeah and doing that you dumbass how many officers are going to die. if some one kicks my door in shoot first ask questions later that’s the dumbest thing besides Obama I have ever heard

John S

This will end ugly. Sorry to say, but if troopers knock on or knock down doors to confiscate guns that the state deems as illegal but are protected by the SUPREME law of the land, the Constitution, I will side with the gun owner. And I am a supporter of our police agencies…..as long as they support the Constitution. They want to make honest, law abiding citizens into felons. Now, call me crazy, but the 2nd Amendment and our Constitution trumps any state law. Or at least it used to. Many of these gun owners will not go down easily,… Read more »

If these pig headed law-breakers ahem, I mean law enforcers want to enforce an illegal law, there’s going to be bullets flying, and justly so! This is how the 1st Revolution got started.

Maybe if enough of these thugs with badges and guns get a bullet in their bodies while kicking people’s doors in will they take a hint.

Ajeocci

I sent the following e-mail to the CT State Police Captain: Sir, I find it interesting that you have stated you will comply with an order from the CT legislature to attempt door to door gun confiscation, and arrests of those considered in violation of the registration law. So, correct me if I’m wrong, but you intend to violate your oath to defend and protect the Constitution for the United States of America, but honor an order from a group of bureaucrats who also violate their oath. Are you nuts? Have you read any of the hundreds of reports that… Read more »

There can be a market for private out of state ranges that will hold your ‘banned’ firearms for you until the ‘bad gun’ laws are obsoleted with new legislation.

james

POTUS Obama told the truth, he won’t take our guns…..what he did not say is somebody else will; Local LEO, Sheriff, Trooper, etc.

They will come door to door with their SWAT uniforms, AR rifles, lasers, flash bangs, gas,
with their shiny new armored transports all paid for by HomeLand Insecurity grants.

Oh and don’t forget the ultimate behemoth command and control center on wheels, tricked out RV by Winnebago.

Remember the news clips during the lock down for the Boston Marathon Bombers?

Fanatically moderate.

I wonder if the state police are taking into account how many people from outside the state of Connecticut will be willing to help Connecticut residents maintain their second amendment rights? A good strategy is don’t wait until the fight ends up on your doorstep. I’m merely talking about activism not armed resistance of course

I suppose CT now has a “Waco” in its future.

Sheriff, elected or appointedis NOT the last line of defense
! Your in a Commonwealth State, Sheriff’s have county jurisdiction
And your Constables have State Jurisdictions.
Executive powers on the state…
Your veterans, your sons, brothers, and even the WWII vet
That can’t walk butim sure he can still shoot straightish!
Last line of defense my ass! The federal government knows better!

chris rakes

that is my main question, did these LE, not take an oath to uphold the constitution?

if any of you LEOs are watching this page. know that you will be in the wrong. just like any of the Nazi’s that claimed, they were just following orders

Buck

So much said for any loyalty at all to the United States constitution , t6hese are ineed fascist gestapo with absolutely no regard for rights of the people that are paid to serve , just like their communist leaders in the State capital . I have seen no sign of anyone in New England with any courage since the revolutionary war , when ALL heroes were killed off and only the genetic cowards survived by hiding from the British .

keithj

County sheriffs are our last line of defense against federal/state tyranny. They are our only ELECTED officials, not beholden to the whims of a corrupt beauocracy.

Chris Avena

Can they Step on the constitution any more? this is the first step before we lose everything that makes Our Country Great!
