Fox News has finally reported that Connecticut has sent out gun confiscation letters.
The letters tell gun owners of now-illegal assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines to relinquish the arms to the police or make them permanently inoperable.
Hundreds of thousands of residents have yet to comply with the new law, which they were required to do by Jan. 1st of this year – turning them all into felons overnight.
What your next move Connecticut?
Connecticut officials are urging owners of now-illegal assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines to relinquish them to the police or make them permanently inoperable.The Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection announced Friday it had sent a letter to owners who had failed to register the items by a Jan. 1 deadline, part of last year’s gun control law. Officials offered advice on what to do now with the weapons and magazines.
The letter says gun owners are in compliance with the new state law if their items are no longer in Connecticut or were sold to an authorized gun dealer.
Those who fail to comply face charges of possessing an unregistered assault weapon and/or high capacity magazine.
Commissioner Dora Schriro denied rumors DESPP is confiscating weapons.
I haven’t heard about a single letter going out…
Lock and load.
You might think that a persons personal property, was just that. Personal property. Don’t be stealing from your constituants. Of course you realize that the real purpose of a police department, is to protect and serve the government.
Against the Constitution of the U.S. Now let’s arrest the sobs in charge of this crime.
Return to sender!
I just knew in my gut, that if this liberal stealing of our constitutional freedoms continues in the USA, all they need do is make a law saying all guns are illegal to own, making it a felony and then since a felon can’t own a gun…well you know how it could go. WE MUST PRAY THIS NEVER HAPPENS!
WHY would this rag of a network flat out LIE again. It plainly says they are Not confiscating weapons.
One step closer to government take over.
assault weapons should not have been sold to begin with
I wish them good luck in this ‘confiscation’, as the weapons might be registered but not the magazines. and I wouldnt turn mine over even if they showed up to take them. They will have to find them first. and I have many many places to hide them.
