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 »
That’s just dumb.
It already IS! Try putting your gun there to keep it “out of sight”.
We used to drive to school with our shotguns in the back window, and NO ONE was going on a shooting spree, or felt threatened, because of it.
Only if they “feel threatened”, because you put your hands in them to keep them warm…
Then explain how a “bowl” can legally be sold “for tobacco only”, yet if you have it with only tobacco in it, you are still guilty of “drug paraphernalia”.
They are nuts!!!!
