Repressive States: No Right to Carry, Ban on Semi-Autos, No Suppressors, and High Taxes

Nine states show up again and again as the most repressive states in the union of the United States of America. With the occasional exception, these states refuse to honor the Constitution; they have extremely restrictive policies on who may bear arms, they ban common rifles, they ban the ownership of suppressors, and they tend to have high taxes. They are all controlled by the Democratic Party.

The nine most repressive states are California, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island.

Of those nine states, all but Rhode Island have enacted bans on some semi-automatic firearms, usually under the politically defined label of “assault rifles.”

Washington State has also banned certain semi-automatic rifles. Litigation challenging such bans as unconstitutional is moving forward in several states, including Maryland, New York, California, Illinois, and New Jersey. At some point, the Supreme Court will rule on one or more of these cases.Of those nine states, all but Rhode Island have enacted bans on some semi-automatic firearms, usually under the politically defined label of “assault rifles.” 

Of the nine repressive states, eight of them have laws that prevent most of the population from exercising their Second Amendment rights, especially the right to bear arms outside of the home.

The right-to-carry map shows the current state of the right to carry in the United States of America by state.

I wonder how much oppression and poverty our citizens can take before another revolt will settle things...if evermore...at least in the next 200 years.
Are we the last free republic in history? There seems to be no hope to get back to Jefferson’s aspirations for peace and prosperity, and opportunity to advance
the advantages of the ‘golden rule’:
“Thus, use your’s, and another’s, do not burden.”
Rational thought is, apparently,lost upon this more recent population in our nation. I blame the government schools, which guided all toward serfdom, and radical actions that seemed prudent, without understanding consequences, as illuminated in ancient tomes.
A pox on such ignorance.
