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 »
Whacked.
Democrat……the name communists have been hiding behind for decades. This is just more proof.
Wow prison unions must need more “product”.
Welcome to Democratic communism
I’m a former criminal who’s gonna give you a tip that will save your$#%&!@* If you’re just carrying a small amount of drugs, say an 8-ball of coke and a few joints, you won’t need a secret compartment. All you’ll need to do is flatten out the drugs and put it in your your wallet. Yes, that’s right, your wallet. Don’t believe me? The next time a cop asks for your ID, hand him your wallet and watch what happens. He/she will toss your wallet back to you as though it were a live grenade. Then they’ll tell you to take out your ID and hand it to them. It’s an age old custom that cops never search your wallet at least until AFTER you’ve been arrested and printed, because they don’t wanna be accused of stealing something. Now, as far as stashing firearms or large amounts of drugs or money is concerned, I obviously can’t advise you on that here.
