Connecticut: Governor Malloy and Connecticut General Assembly Approve an Irresponsible and Dangerous Measure that will Victimize Responsible Gun Owners


Today, Governor Dan Malloy (D) disregarded the constitutional rights of the residents in Connecticut and signed Senate Bill 1160 into law, the most sweeping and radical “gun control” bill in our nation’s history. This measure was approved in the state Senate by a 26-10 vote and in the state House by a 105-44 voteonly hours after both chambers received the bill language.

Governor Malloy and his “Gang of Six”—Senate President Pro Tempore Donald Williams, Senate Majority Leader Martin Looney, Senate Minority Leader John McKinney, Speaker Brendan Sharkey, House Majority Leader Joe Aresimowicz, and House Minority Leader Larry Cafero—led the charge to hastily enact legislation that will forever change your Second Amendment rights and sporting heritage in Connecticut.

Labeled an “Emergency Certification Bill,” SB 1160 was approved by both legislative chamberswithout a public hearing or allowing adequate time for committee review. So the foundation of the democratic process was effectively eliminated, even state legislators were not permitted enough time to become fully versed on the bill language before voting on it. The anti-gun elite did the same thing in New York in January and are only now finding and admitting their mistakes, problems and "unintended consequences."

In less than 24 hours, a bill was passed by both legislative chambers and signed into law by the Governor. Regardless of one's views on gun control issues, the general public should be outraged at politicians enacting laws in this manner. Important policy should not be decided like this in America and especially in a state nicknamed the "Constitution State."

If your state legislators voted for Senate Bill 1160, please call and e-mail them and let them know how utterly disappointed you are in their irresponsible vote for such an extremist measure. Ask them why they voted for a measure without allowing time for public input and review. If your state legislator(s) voted against the measure, please thank them. Click here to view contact information for your state legislators.

Your NRA is fully committed to our members and all responsible gun owners in Connecticut, and is preparing appropriate legal action to address the enactment of this legislation. Furthermore, we are deeply committed to holding every state legislator -- who voted for this blatantly unconstitutional measure in the darkness of night -- accountable in the 2014 election. We are analyzing all ramifications of this act and will be communicating that information to our members soon.

The most tragic aspect of this situation is not the destruction of your Right to Keep and Bear Arms, but that certain legislators radically impacted your lives without initiating ANY proposal to keep you safe from the criminal access to or misuse of firearms. This new gun control law is not going to stop a future act of violence by a street criminal, gang member or madman who misuses a firearm.
 
In addition to contacting your state legislators if they voted for SB 1160, please contact the “Gang of Six” let them know your disgust with their backroom deal-making that betrayed the rights of responsible gun owners and tell them you will not forget.

Okay I’m Really Getting Tired of the Southern Poverty Law Center calling the “Patriot Movement,” Terrorists and Hate Groups.



Remember this blog is only my personal opinion. I do have strong convictions and opinions. So this blog may not be for everyone.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is a liberal, socialist, communist group of people, that for some reason have the Department of Justice and Homeland Security convinced that they know what they’re talking about. I’m here to say that, the Southern Poverty Law Center doesn’t know what they’re talking about. They are only interested in demonizing the people, actually fought for this country and died for the country. The patriot movement is not racist, a hate group and we are definitely not terrorists. The patriot movement is all about the U.S. Constitution and making sure the government follows it. The patriot movement is more of a watchdog or watch group. The Southern poverty Law Center would like to make you think that we discriminate against people race or color, but we know patriots come in all shapes and sizes and colors. The Southern poverty Law Center likes to connect the patriot movement with neo-Nazis and baby killers just because we don’t like what’s going on in the government. It’s this type of propaganda that the communist and socialist Democrats eat up. They also put us in lines with Tim McVeigh and the Oklahoma City bombing, but anything they don’t know is that I actually knew Tim McVeigh and the Army. We were in Desert Storm together in the 1st Infantry Division. He was a quiet unassuming kind of person. He never talked about malicious offer anything like that while I was around, there also has been some evidence that he was a CIA plant to do the Oklahoma City bombing and blame the militia movements of the time and also demonized the militia and veterans. The government, particularly the FBI and the ATF said that he did it on the anniversary of Waco, where the FBI and ATF burned women and children to death. Because they were a cult and they were demonized as such.

 

The exponential growth of the usurpation of executive power in the United States has gone unchecked since 1992. Pres. Ronald Reagan warned American citizens on television about the communist threat and we thought we defeated them. But based on new evidence, the USSR went into a dormant state, by which I mean a non-aggressive state, and now they have reawakened. A lot of people forget that Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Pres. John F. Kennedy, was a communist. Now I know that there are some people out there that think there’s a big conspiracy behind on John F. Kennedy’s assassination, but just going by the official story. It is quite amazing how long the communists of been infiltrating the American Society. There are many indications that the communist infiltration started after the communist revolution in Russia. I don’t think this is true, it started long before that. People probably don’t remember Pres. Woodrow Wilson, the man that invented the Federal Reserve, the United States central bank, and that forgotten relic, the League of Nations, which was the first UN but it failed because a lot of countries, like England and France did not want to give up their sovereignty. So the promotion of a one world government has been long-standing. I feel that the one world government is a tool of the world’s elite, the top 0.05%, to control people and the economy with a one world currency. With one world currency markets don’t dictate the price of things the one world government does through price-fixing. Price-fixing is something that the communist did in Russia to try to keep prices artificially low. As one of the major reasons why communist Russia ended up going bankrupt is because without a growing economy a nation cannot sustain itself for future generations.

 

The United States has been infiltrated by communist and socialist Democrats, anyone who believes in inalienable rights or rights at all and don’t worship at the feet of Pres. Obama means that you are terrorists in the eyes of the communist and socialist Democrats. I remember during the 2012 elections that they were interviewing people at the DNC, democratic national convention, and a lot of people at the DNC when they heard Republican, gun owners, Christian and Southern, they were spitting venom. If they heard NRA, Gun owners Association of America or anything that had to do with guns. These Democrats said very unsavory things like, racist, uneducated, unsophisticated and some other things that were kind of insulting. The problem is that I think a lot of people have lost touch with which they really are, an American. The reason why they can say these things on TV is because of the First Amendment to the Constitution, the people are forgetting about the Constitution.

 

The Southern poverty Law Center can say whatever he wants, but once their speech becomes hateful of patriots, isn’t that “hate speech.” I think communists and socialists are most racist people out there. Why? Just a recent example of how the media has portrayed patriots, when Alex Jones went on that Piers Morgan show. He showed a lot of frustration and excitement. He didn’t get bullied by Piers Morgan. Alex Jones stood up to him and made him cower in the corner. That’s how you deal with these bully communists and socialist Democrats. Once you confront them that usually stand-down because they are cowards. The media tried to spin this incident and make Alex Jones out to be a madman. But the more they played it on the air the more relevance they gave to the issue. So that kind of backfired on them and makes me so happy. I’ll Jones is been a long time patriot. Even though some people think he’s a shill I don’t believe so. The Communist news network, which is if you didn’t know CNN, talk about how they were going to shoot Alex Jones and Carolyn with the gun joking about Pierce Morgan where his brother’s uniform in all this crap. It turned out looking more stupid than anything.  I have to say something about the Southern poverty Law Center and its “hate speech” against people who believe in the Constitution, liberty, freedom and the Bill of Rights.

 

It has been an honor to get this off my chest. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Later I’ll be getting my opinion on Feinstein and her hatred of people that were in the military, are in the military and her overall promotion of the communist state. See you later.

Subject: DO YOU HAVE A GUN IN THE HOUSE?

Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2013 19:08:00 -0700
     Do you have a gun in the house?
GOOD TO KNOW!

When I had my gangrene gallbladder taken out and spent 10 days in the hospital for what should have been an overnight stay the insurance company kicked me out. I had home nurse visits for two weeks and was asked if I had guns in the house. I respond that if I did I would not tell them. So the below has some merit.

FYI, I am passing this along... there are comments from two other people I have also been asked if we keep guns in the house. The nurse just kinda slipped it in along with all the other regular questions. I told her I refused to answer because it was against the law to ask.

Everyone, whether you have guns or not, should give a neutral answer so they have no idea who does and who doesn't. My doctor asked me if I had guns in my house and also if any were loaded. I, of course, answered yes to both questions. Then he asked why I kept a loaded gun close to my bed. I answered that my son, who is a certified gun instructor and also works for Homeland Security, advised me that an unloaded, locked up gun is no protection against criminal attack.

The Government now requires these questions be asked of people on Medicare, and probably everyone else.

Just passing this along for your information: I had to visit a doctor other than my regular doctor when my doctor was on vacation.. One of the questions on the form I had to fill out was: Do you have any guns in your house?? My answer was None of your damn business!!

So it is out there! It is either an insurance issue or government intervention. Either way, it is out there and the second the government gets into your medical records (as they want to under Obamacare) it will become a major issue and will ultimately result in lock and load!!

Please pass this on to all the other retired guys and gun owners... Thanks, from a Vietnam Vet and retired Police Officer: I had a doctor's appointment at the local VA clinic yesterday and found out something very interesting that I would like to pass along. While going through triage before seeing the doctor, I was asked at the end of the exam, three questions: 1. Did I feel stressed? 2. Did I feel threatened? 3. Did I feel like doing harm to someone?

The nurse then informed me that if I had answered yes to any of the questions I would have lost my concealed carry permit as it would have gone into my medical records and the VA would have reported it to Homeland Security.

Looks like they are going after the vets first. Other gun people like retired law enforcement will probably be next. Then when they go after the civilians, what argument will they have? Be forewarned and be aware. The Obama administration has gone on record as considering veterans and gun owners potential terrorists.
Whether you are a gun owner, veteran or not, YOU'VE BEEN WARNED !

If you know veterans and gun owners, please pass this on to them. Be very cautious about what you say and to whom.

They are coming for us, so unless you're an ostrich, do not stick your head in the sand......

(UPDATED) Disturbing Report: Veterans are receiving letters from VA prohibiting the ownership or purchase of firearms... Developing...

Written By Constitutional Attorney Michael Connelly, J.D.
How would you feel if you received a letter from the U.S. Government informing you that because of a physical or mental condition that the government says you have it is proposing to rule that you are incompetent to handle your own financial affairs? Suppose that letter also stated that the government is going to appoint a stranger to handle your affairs for you at your expense? That would certainly be scary enough but it gets worse.
What if that letter also stated: “A determination of incompetency will prohibit you from purchasing, possessing, receiving, or transporting a firearm or ammunition. If you knowingly violate any of these prohibitions, you may be fined, imprisoned, or both pursuant to the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, Pub.L.No. 103-159, as implemented at 18, United States Code 924(a)(2).”?
That makes is sound like something right from a documentary on a tyrannical dictatorship somewhere in the world. Yet, as I write this I have a copy of such a letter right in front of me. It is being sent by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to hundreds, perhaps thousands, of America’s heroes. In my capacity as Executive Director of the United States Justice Foundation (USJF) I have been contacted by some of these veterans and the stories I am getting are appalling.
The letter provides no specifics on the reasons for the proposed finding of incompetency; just that is based on a determination by someone in the VA. In every state in the United States no one can be declared incompetent to administer their own affairs without due process of law and that usually requires a judicial hearing with evidence being offered to prove to a judge that the person is indeed incompetent. This is a requirement of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that states that no person shall “… be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law…”.
Obviously, the Department of Veterans Affairs can’t be bothered by such impediments as the Constitution, particularly since they are clearly pushing to fulfill one of Obama’s main goals, the disarming of the American people. Janet Napolitano has already warned law enforcement that some of the most dangerous among us are America’s heroes, our veterans, and now according to this letter from the VA they can be prohibited from buying or even possessing a firearm because of a physical or mental disability.
Think about it, the men and women who have laid their lives on the line to defend us and our Constitution are now having their own Constitutional rights denied. There are no clear criteria for the VA to declare a veteran incompetent. It can be the loss of a limb in combat, a head injury, a diagnosis of PTSD, or even a soldier just telling someone at the VA that he or she is depressed over the loss of a buddy in combat. In none of these situations has the person been found to be a danger to themselves or others. If that was the case than all of the Americans who have suffered from PTSD following the loss of a loved one or from being in a car accident would also have to be disqualified from owning firearms. It would also mean that everyone who has ever been depressed for any reason should be disarmed. In fact, many of the veterans being deprived of their rights have no idea why it is happening.
The answer seems to be it is simply because they are veterans. At the USJF we intend to find the truth by filing a Freedom of Information Act request to the Department of Veterans Affairs to force them to disclose the criteria they are using to place veterans on the background check list that keeps them from exercising their Second Amendment rights. Then we will take whatever legal steps are necessary to protect our American warriors.
The reality is that Obama will not get all of the gun control measures he wants through Congress, and they wouldn’t be enough for him anyway. He wants a totally disarmed America so there will be no resistance to his plans to rob us of our nation. That means we have to ask who will be next. If you are receiving a Social Security check will you get one of these letters? Will the government declare that you are incompetent because of your age and therefore banned from firearm ownership. It certainly fits in with the philosophy and plans of the Obama administration. It is also certain that our military veterans don’t deserve this and neither do any other Americans.
