If you live in Massachusetts, don’t labor under the misconception that you own your vehicle, or a boat or plane. Under a bill sponsored by a Democrat legislator, the Commonwealth would forbid you from adding a hidden compartment to secure your private property, such as a handgun, money or other valuables.
Designed as an alleged anti-drug law, the bill would punish those who add a hidden compartment after the vehicle is purchased with a two-year mandatory prison sentence, and five years for subsequent offenses.
Even worse, the law would empower police to seize the vehicle under civil forfeiture law. Lawmakers in support of the House bill claim it’s necessary to prosecute the war on drugs. State police officials have endorsed the bill as needed to discourage drug trafficking.
Learn how the bill lessens the burden of proof on the Commonwealth and effectively guts the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution that protects citizens from unlawful searches and seizures. The disturbing details can be found on the next page.NEXT PAGE »
Why have Democrats become the party that does nothing but try to strip away our rights and tries to silence Christians?
So, by that definition, buying a lockable container to keep your GPS from getting stolen, is enough for them to seize your vehicle. That doesn’t sound right.
and now it seems the dems want to limit free speech to just those that they agree with and this dimwit Kathryn thinks the Republicans are trying to get rid of your rights. not to mention the nsa spying on americans
Kathryn don’t worry you can keep your safe space.
They should clarify that if drugs were found in such a compartment..
Idiot name one right anyone wants to take away. I see you’re still believing b******t other Dems tell you.
F**k that “law”
More B.S.!
You are a special kind of stupid.
I’m not sure who’s more retarded, you or your gay “messiah”, obummer.
