Molon Labe: Connecticut Gun Group Issues Ultimatum to Government
(Info Wars) – After gun owners in Connecticut revolted
against a gun control law by refusing to register their assault rifles
and high capacity magazines, one Second Amendment group is calling on
the government to either enforce gun confiscation or repeal the law in
full.
Following the Sandy Hook shooting in December 2012,
Connecticut passed a law which banned ammunition magazines capable of
carrying more than 10 rounds. Residents who had acquired such magazines
before the law came into effect were mandated to register them with
state police by January 1, 2014. The law also banned assault rifles
manufactured after 1994, requiring them to be declared to authorities.
FAX BLAST SPECIAL: Don’t Let The Government Take Your Guns! Protect Your Second Amendment Rights!
Weeks after the deadline expired, authorities revealed
that just 50,016 assault weapons and 38,290 ammunition magazines had
been registered, meaning that some 320,000 assault rifles and around 2.4
million high capacity magazines were not declared.
Now the Second Amendment organization Connecticut Carry
is calling on authorities to “enforce the tyranny they passed or repeal
it entirely.”
“State officials look down the barrel of the laws that
they created, and it is very probably that they now tremble as they
rethink the extremity of their folly. Connecticut Carry calls on every
State official, every Senator, and every Representative, to make the
singular decision: Either enforce the laws as they are written and let
us fight it out in court, or else repeal the 2013 Gun Ban in its
entirety,” states the group’s press release.
In calling the state’s bluff, gun owners are setting the
stage for a showdown that could sink the draconian law and set the
precedent for the rest of the country.
“If the state does not have the stomach to enforce these
laws, then the legislature has until May 7th, 2014 to completely repeal
these immoral edicts and let the residents of Connecticut return to
their rightfully owned property and former exercise of constitutional
rights and practices without any threat of State violence,” adds the
press release.
Last month it emerged that Connecticut residents who
failed to register their assault weapons or high capacity magazines
before the January 1 deadline had received letters from CT State Police
ordering them to either make their guns and ammo inoperable, sell them
to a licensed dealer, or turn them in at a local police station.
When one woman asked Connecticut State Police Spokesman
Lt. Paul Vance if police would engage in door to door gun confiscations
during a phone call, Vance labeled her “anti-American.”
“I want to know, if it comes down to it, will the police
go to my home if my husband refuses to give up a weapon that was
formerly legal and now has been made illegal by a corrupt legislature?”
she asked. “Will the police actually go to my home and threaten my
family, ’cause I’m scared to death?”
“Ma’am, it sounds like you’re anti-American, it sounds like you’re anti-law. I can’t answer your question,” Lt. Vance answered.
When the woman reminded Vance that he was a public servant, he churlishly shot back, “I’m the master, Ma’am, I’m the master.”
