    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Now for the topic at hand.

    They either comply or they don't. It will be interesting to see if any of the militias will come to the aid of those that don't comply. I doubt they will.

    Where is this? Somewhere in Hartford? I should get down there with some Free State Project brochures.

    Come on CT residents, vote with your feet, move from one of the worst states to one of the best with only a couple of hours drive. I for sure am getting out of here within a few months, as soon as I finish the transition that will allow me to work remotely.

    I know exactly what you mean. For the longest time I didn't have sound so I couldn't watch, but now I find that I just don't care to watch YouTube videos. I think it's an age thing. Two generations down the road people probably won't even know how to write any more - they'll communicate entirely by video.

    I hope I am dead before then.

    Any idiot can blabber endlessly, and often do. The written worn requires some effort, and might even lead to organizing one's thoughts into a coherent body of work.

    To the subject at hand, we have more evidence that the purpose of registration is confiscation. My question to the TPTB is why should any upstanding citizen comply with any demand made upon him by a public employee that negates rights articulated by the Constitution?
    Out of every one hundred men they send us, ten should not even be here. Eighty will do nothing but serve as targets for the enemy. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, upon them depends our success in battle. But one, ah the one, he is a real warrior, and he will bring the others back from battle alive.

    I think people have until the end of the year (I may be wrong about that), so we won't know much about noncompliance for a while. As far as I know, there aren't any militias in Connecticut. But the Connecticut Citizens Defense League is a very principled and very active (politically, legally, and for recruitment) gun rights group which formed in 2009 and they have had some success in pushing back against state and local government. They're one of the groups suing to stop this. They've also gone from around 2,500 members just before Sandy Hook to about 8,500 now and are still growing rapidly.

    They've all but declared war on every politician who voted for the law. They have always selectively endorsed candidates, but now they have taken to issuing press releases stating that they won't be supporting anyone who voted for this.

    Press Release On Senator McKinney Gubernatorial Run

    Groton, CT July 23rd, 2013

    The President for the Connecticut Citizens Defense League (The state’s largest grass roots gun rights group) offers comments on a gubernatorial run by Senate minority leader John McKinney.

    CCDL President Scott Wilson: “Senator McKinney was instrumental in implementing a historic gun control law with zero consideration for the constitutional rights of law abiding gun owners. With his deliberate act of siding with gun control supporters, there will be no support from CCDL for his run”.

    The CCDL President also stated that other elected officials who went along with the Senate leader and voted in favor of the gun control law, could expect the same from the organization.

    How may "pro-Gun" politicos voted for this $#@!?
    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

    I don't understand the question. None, obviously.

    Some of them tried to claim the original version of the bill was worse, and this was the best extent to which they could moderate it. But they've held a number of town hall meetings trying to use this defense and are called out for it being bull $#@! every time. If it was going to pass anyway, as they claim, they could have voted against the final bill with a clean conscious.

    That tv crew must have searched for gun owners who agreed with the law. Or maybe the few who don't care were the ones who went out to register on the first day. But every gun owner I've seen is furious. They've already flipped one seat to a pro-gun Republican in a special election.

    Obviously?
    I have only known ONE,, in my lifetime..
    But I have seen many that are considered pro-2nd Amendment both propose and vote for more registration and prohibition.

    So the obvious is not so much so.

    It also makes it easier for the state to confiscate, when they get around to making it illegal to own/possess any firearm. Someday, I'm not kidding.

    I think this is pretty close to what got it started somewhere around there; isn't it?

    Someone coming to rip off an armory?


    Gun grabbing in Boston met with resistance

    BOSTON - National guard units seeking to confiscate a cache of recently banned assault weapons were ambushed on April 19th by elements of a para-military extremist faction. Military and law enforcement sources estimate that 72 were killed and more than 200 injured before government forces were compelled to withdraw.
