Pretty sure the anti gun CO incumbent Governor won. The US Senator lost however.

Mallory won in CT. This may play out badly (confiscations) in the weeks and months ahead.

Yes it was a great night. But there were a few really bad losses.
I say "Bring It On!". I hear so many liberals tell me, "Nobody wants to take your guns away," and I simply don't believe it. If one small microcosm of our country (Colorado) chooses to demonstrate what many of us believe to be true (i.e. registration leads to confiscation), then at least it is isolated in one place - and - it proves our point. It will boost our side of the argument across the rest of the country. All those 'fence sitters' who own guns but don't want to take sides may finally wake up.
Connecticut is far more likely to see confiscations. Leaked memos have allegedly indicated the governor and the head of the state police are prepared to start confiscating unregistered "assault" weapons (and "high capacity magazines") after the election, which has now passed. Apparently noncompliance to required registration is supposedly about 90% in CT.


Edited for clarity
Now, how are they going to “start confiscating unregistered "assault" weapons (and "high capacity magazines")” when they are unregistered and they do not have a list of who has them?

Are they going to demand from all gun dealers in the state a list of all "assault" weapons (and "high capacity magazines")” sold in the state since (let’s say) 1963? Are they going to search your house for the AR you told them you sold ten years ago? Are they going to start mass warrantless searches?

I am not even going to address the fallout the state would have to deal with from the bloodshed that would surely happen if they tried this.

No, the state completely misjudged the reaction of the people to their “law” and now the best thing they can do is try to pretend it never happened and move on with another tactic.
All they have to do is first confiscate all the 4473s from the dealers.

Game on.
Confiscate all the 4473s from the dealers going back to 1963?

What are they going to do if you tell them you sold it in 1970? You are not required to keep records.

That still leaves that pesky little constitutional requirement that they get a warrant to search your house if they think you are lying.

That could add up to 50,000, and perhaps as high as 350,000. http://articles.courant.com/2014-02-10/ ... ration-law" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

With all the new gun laws coming out in Connecticut I can’t help wonder how much more the good people of the state will tolerate.

Oh, it's far more than mere guns. Want to see what they have planned? Read this: http://www.varmintal.com/hci.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
They cannot succeed in that plan without registration.
And then they were hit squarely between the eyes with a big chunk of reality. "rlol"

I wouldn’t worry about registration too much. They can pass all the laws they want and if the majority do not obey the laws then all it does is make the lawmakers look like idiots. Case in point “The great Connecticut gun & magazine registration.

My question is, would the U.S. government actually fire on its own citizens?
When Malloy and Connecticut act against the gun owners turned felons by the swipe of his pen we will know he answer to your question.
What ever happened to the law? Did they repeal it? Is it still on the books but just not being enforced?

Does anyone know the actual status?

Re: Gun Control

If they attempted confiscation of firearms and the populace resisted, it would be interesting to see how far they would go to “prevent firearm violence”.
