[glow=black,2,300]Tens of thousands of Connecticut residents refuse to register guns under new law[/glow]
On Jan. 1, 2014, tens of thousands of defiant gun owners seemingly made the choice not to register their semi-automatic rifles with the state of Connecticut as required by a hastily-passed gun control law. By possessing unregistered so-called “assault rifles,” they all technically became guilty of committing Class D felonies overnight.
Police had received 47,916 applications for “assault weapons certificates” and 21,000 incomplete applications as of Dec. 31, Lt. Paul Vance told The Courant.
At roughly 50,000 applications, officials estimate that as little as 15 percent of the covered semi-automatic rifles have actually been registered with the state. “No one has anything close to definitive figures, but the most conservative estimates place the number of unregistered assault weapons well above 50,000, and perhaps as high as 350,000,” the report states.
Needless to say, officials and some lawmakers are stunned.

Strength in numbers ........... en masse acts of civil disobedience!!!
Let 'em come & get 'em! [/glow]
Its the Govt. of Connecticut's move -- the ball is in their court.
Many Police organizations State wide have already put the State on notice they will not enforce this law.
They cite that they swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States, & not any local law in conflict with the US Constitution.
As the law is interpreted, there will be no amnesty.
The 100,000 +/- Civilly Disobedient Citizens of Ct. are past the point of no return.
What do you think?
