"Officials have literally ordered those who failed to meet the registration deadline to surrender their firearms or face arrest."

They have no way of knowing WHO owns a rifle in the banned category.
You buy a rifle, it gets listed as a "long gun".
They can GUESS, but they would be wrong 75% of the time - no judge wants to be party to that, (not yet, anyway).

The law bans the sale of magazines holding over 10 rounds

Does it ban giving them away for free?

The whole idea in sending money and showing up at the rally and writing letters and calling is so we don’t get to the point where the armchair commandos tell us it’s time to water the tree of liberty.

Residents with their guns will not go down without a fight.

Sadly, most will. Plenty of evidence that people will capitulate even though their rights are being infringed. Fortunately, it doesn't require many to take a stand. Look at the recent incident with Dorner in California. Now consider what a scenario would look like with a 100 Dorners spread across the entire state.

Two interesting scenarios that could be played out can be found in John Ross' book "Unintented Consequences" and Vince Flynn's "Term Limits".

So any guesses on how many guns will be turned in fro every “felon” that is gunned down by a SWAT team in front of their family? I’ll start 100.

“I live in CT, and there are a lot of conservatives especially where I work. We obviously feel like we have no voice.”

Take heart castlegreyskull, I think in this matter you will have a voice, and many voices will join you.

As you probably know, Colorado recalled two state senators who helped sponsor state gun laws.  A third state senator resigned when she was also targeted for recall. 

Gun rights will be an issue this coming November and our Gun Owners of the Rockies will be a great influence in this years election.  In various areas of the country the people are fighting back and taking our country back using the means we legally can use.

a marksman can still cause a lot of headaches with 10 rounds.
the M1 Garand held 8 rounds and it beat the Germans and the Japs.

Everything will be OK as long as the state doesn't start sending in SWAT teams for confiscation. That will inevitably result in bloodshed and then less-than-civil disobedience.

Still, at that juncture, many will rush to turn in their banned weapons out of fear and hope for the best. But there are some who won't.

Once the State decides an example must be made of these newly minted "felons", the resort to force will result in a few dead "felons" and perhaps a few dead cops. Then some of the previously law abiding and peaceful "felons" will figure there is no good sense in waiting around for the inevitable neighborhood informer or records search, the 3 AM smashed in door, the dead family dog, the wife and kids held in terror by heavily armed black-clad gunmen, the family home ransacked, and being dragged from bed, beaten, shackled, and hauled off to jail for a long jail term which will ruin his life and family. I suspect at that point some small percentage of "felonious resistors" will reckon it's time for "asymmetrical warfare". Then it will get truly ugly.

These gun grabbers are purposely turning peaceful, law abiding American citizens into criminals simply for exercising their 2nd Amendment rights and they are willing to ruin their lives and families to do it. In the end it will not end well for the tyrants. Then they will discover what fear is really like as they become the hunted. There will never be enough police or bodyguards to protect them and their families.

They really are playing with matches and gasoline here but they delude themselves with their self-righteousness and uniformed allies. It is they who have turned their peaceful and beautiful State onto a police state and their fellow citizens into "felons" for their ideological reasons.

I’m thinking of getting a door breach alarm that instead of a siren or horn announces:

I AM A THIRTY SECOND BOMB! I AM A THIRTY SECOND BOMB! TWENTY-EIGHT, TWENTY-SEVEN, TWENTY-SIX...

It should make for a short visit.

I’ve learned that writing letters and calling falls on deaf ears and canned response answers. Both of which were beyond obvious here in Maryland when the emails, calls and letters were overwhelming against voting for the gun control law that was enacted. Politicians don’t give a damn about people their only concern is there own ass.

We’re past watering the tree of liberty. A little blood is needed to bring the point home. Government is controlled by the people not the other way around.

Well, OK.

But make the count down start at five, best of both worlds.

-- they're currently involved in a federal suit against the state of CT ... --

The Federal courts are going to uphold the CT law. The CT law is the same as the federal law that requires registration and paying of a tax for certain weapons.

Once the constitutionality of the law has been established, is the CCDL going to reverse its position?

With all due respect to RH, tampering and tweaking what is, is how things get improved, eventually.

Also, if the door kickers were also fans, then a 10 second. fuse on a 30 second countdown would indeed be a creative touch.

NO?

Judges are bigger control freaks than legislators.
