Being fast tracked through the legislature.

God bless the states that are not seeking to destroy our Constitutional rights in the name of a partisan social/political agenda. Happily, 6 beats 3 on the SC. No court in MA can do anything except say "Yeah Sir Mister Boss Man!" to whatever the SC says. In this case, 6 will get you that 3 are going to go down in flames. Smoke will mark the spot at the little courthouse in MA. Cool. Sincerely. bruce.

They just keep ignoring SCOTUS rulings.

 

[GaryS]

We we have been planning our exit for a couple of years now. This just confirms our decision and gives me a good incentive to accelerate the process.

With any luck we will be celebrating the new year in our new home in the south.

 

[Baxter6551]

Yes we just got new laws shoved down our throats in CT. Good luck trying to get your MA laws defeated.

Governor Lamont Signs Legislation Strengthening Gun Violence Prevention Laws.

Sad

It is so sad that the birthplace of our great republic is sinking into the deplorable tyranny that we fought the Revolutionary War to escape.

I see this madness happening in other states and I'm kind of liking living in Mississippi right about now.

I left taxachusettes for SE Florida in 81.
No state income tax, no home heating oil, no swapping snow tires,
no hi cap magazine limits and starting in July permitless concealed carry.
Ps bikinis on the beach 365 days a year.

Most of my wife’s family has lived around Iuka ( NE Mississippi ) since before the Civil War.
Have been there several times.
Would rather be a few miles north in middle TN. The long dreadfully humid summers, fire ants, and a poor local economy are enough to keep me away from upper MS.
It gets hot here in SW Missouri, but the economy is much better, summers a little shorter, AND NO FIRE ANTS.

Hey Gary I have a question for you. Maybe you know?

I noticed that there is a term “Bona Fide Collectors of Firearms” in the bill. Does MA issue a State license if the colonel decides to? If so does that supersede an ATF FFL03? What about legal NFA Stamped weapons that are previously, (legally,) owned.

I guess that was two questions. Good luck to you.

These laws are being passed because previously, only the well connected could get a carry permit. Since the plebian majority couldn't a carry permit, the need for gun free zones wasn't a requirement. Now due to the Bruen decision, the authoritarian scum in office will happily issue everyone a permit, they'll just make it to where no one can carry with it.

I think if people here were told they could get rid of fire ants with a little plutonium, they would probably go to Walmart and try to buy some. Nothing kills them; they just move on somewhere else. LOL

And Lord help you if you ever have to shoot somebody.
Or even “ brandish “ a gun.

Bankruptcy is all but certain.

The current leaders have always wanted to be dictators over their cesspool.

 

[Bald1]

This is a page out of NY’s playbook. It will be challenged and it will be defeated. Making current guns illegal to own equals confiscation. SCOTUS won’t allow it. These blue states throw a bunch of stuff at the wall and hope some of it sticks.

Yup, "you might be the rap, but you won't be the ride" is a tried and true method of punish for defying the edicts of the ruling class. They make the process itself the punishment.

We hope to see you down here. I live in East Tn and Hope you’re considering this area. Tn is a great state and the eastern part is the paradise.

I know of no state issued collector license. MA often makes up non existent terms. For example in one case in federal court the lawyer for the state said that instead of a License To Carry (LTC) the plaintiff could obtain a "Permit to Purchase" which allow him to buy a gun and bring it home.

There is no such thing in MA law, and LTC is required for mere possession inside your house.

The judge bought it over the objection of the plaintiff. This was pre Bruen and I believe that the case has been refilled.

When passed in whatever form the law will be full contradictions that expose every lawful gun owner subject to prosecution and confiscation.

Unfortunately, they can do a lot of damage while this makes its way to the Federal courts. The first circuit is the most liberal in the country now after president Trump was able to appoint conservative judges to the 9th.

That is a very nice area, but for family reasons it's very likely to be texas.
