Well here we have another absurd argument from a politician. In Colorado, state Rep. Joe Salazar (D) thinks women who carry guns for self-defense will shoot first and ask questions later. Of course, there is zero evidence this would happen since women have been allowed to carry openly and concealed for years in almost every US…
Should we pass a law? Last year, two teens drowned in Connecticut government school pools under the supervision of government employees. More than 3,000 unintentional, non-boating-related drownings occur each year, and about 700 of those are children under 14. Making life jackets mandatory will save lives.
Not as bad as New York, but the Connecticut General Assembly says it will use an “emergency certification” process to skip committee hearings on proposed legislation, leaving the public no voice when it comes to commentary on specific legislation.
This is devastating for a city no doubt, but one thing you won’t hear from me is the this-is-what-happens-when-you-ban-guns argument. There are too many variables involved and I won’t be pulled into the “Chicago is a gun control bellwether” argument.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) is not a self-defense expert, and I don’t want him – or any other politician or government agency – telling me what is an acceptable firearm to use for self-defense. Every person, situation, neighborhood and home is totally different.
Except of course for the lawmakers and law enforcers. Listen carefully to the politicians and the gun control crowd – including many law enforcement leaders whose jobs are tied to politics – as they talk about the future of gun control. To them, it’s not confiscation, rather a “removal of firearms” from the public realm over time…
This video has been around for years, and the audio was played by Jim during the first hour of the big radio show this morning. Here it is … the testimony in-front of a Congressional committee from Dr. Susan Gratia-Hupp in 1994 just prior to the implementation of the federal assault weapons ban.
How can you prepare for the Gun Violence Prevention Working Group public hearing to be held this Monday (Jan. 28) in Hartford? Read on for more information. If you plan to speak, do your homework and prepare. Also, TAKE ACTION NOW and contact members of the working group. (Contact information below.)
Will you make the effort to attend? Unlike New York, Connecticut residents will have the opportunity to make their voices heard at four hearings with members of the governor’s three working groups. A combined bi-partisan task force hearing will be the last to be held – in Newtown – on Jan. 30.
Of course, these bastards keep saying “we won’t take your guns away.” They pride themselves on that statement. But instead of physically taking them from you, they just write a law that makes law-abiding citizens who owned firearms into criminals if they don’t get rid of them.
