Vermont Legislature Passes Sweeping Gun Restrictions

I am surprised.

Not sure if it's been said here, but gun control legislation has turned into death by a thousand cuts. Not sure how the hell we as a public are going to reverse laws like this, short of mobs with torches and pitchforks.

From the left academia POV, fear drives change. They promote fear of guns, fear of climate change, fear of anything to gain political support and funding. And in fairness, the NRA does the same thing.

But I also agree with @Box that ultimately it's about control. Trust us, we'll make you safe...you only have to give up a few constitutional rights.

I'm not a member of the NRA. Nor have I ever donated them money, short of visiting the National Firearms Museum. That being said, I intend to change that very soon.

A life membership is around $1000?

 

[BloodStripe]

Most likely I'll just be doing a yearly membership, or up to five years.

I am often surprised at the number of times I see deals for significantly less.

Looks like $1500. I just joined NRA!

 

[Topkick]

I just renewed my NRA membership for the first time in a while. I figure it's worth the small donation to help somebody stand up for our rights.

 

[DC]

I did a year and then was offered 5 years at a discount(125$) so did that as well.

 

[Topkick]

Yeah, I paid 40.00 for a year and then I received an offer in the mail to get an additional year for 19.99

Ummm....I try to take this stuff in stride, but this seems like as much of an”Holy Shit” moment as any...

Deerfield Village Board unanimously votes to ban some semi-automatic weapons

The new ordinance goes into effect on June 13. Residents who do not remove the banned weapons from their homes by that date face a fine of $1,000 per day.

You really think you can fine me for something you don't know I have?

Can we overthrow the town and appoint a pro-2A dictator?

And how is this enforced? Unwarranted search and seizure?

Maybe your neighbors, family or friends know...and would rat on you for a reward. If we're gonna go "1984" let's go full Nazi.

There will always be spies in the camp. That's why my tribe consists of less than 10 people.

Here’s a loophole. AR is Armalite Rifle trademarked by Armalite. All others technically not an “AR”. The are just...well...scary rifles.

 

[DC]

And why divulging with pics what’s in your safe on a public board or in public for that matter ain’t too smart.

Shoot, man, I sold that AR. Threw away the receipt. Sorry. Or did I lend it to a family member in another state?

Fuck that.

 

[Grunt]

All I can say is..."GOOD LUCK" with that....
