The British probably referred to the Colonialist’s muskets as “assault weapons” back in the day.

Connecticut state constitution:

SEC. 2. All political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and instituted for their benefit; and they have at all times an undeniable and indefeasible right to alter their form of government in such manner as they may think expedient.

SEC. 15. Every citizen has a right to bear arms in defense of himself and the state.

It must be clearly stated to the clowns in Hartford that if they mess with #15 it will become necessary to exercise #2.

The more of these ridiculous proposals submitted, the less likely anything will be passed.

I felt the exact same way about Obama care at one point.

“There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers — and then you cash in on guilt. Now that’s the system.”

If you hunt for sport, there is nothing more sporting than a single shot.

Well, if you are a marksman, that would be true. If your one shot is off a little, you need to track down the intended game and finish it off.

(You remember, after the gun is shot and there is no more ammo, the gun holder usually just throws the gun at whomever he was shooting)

Hahahaha!

Kind of like thrusting your shooting arm forward as you fire. (I guess it makes the bullet move faster).

That quote sounds exactly like the IRS.

We are already criminals since it is impossible to know and follow all of the IRS rules. Consequently, we all have violated some IRS statute or regulation, make us a criminal.
