"The same is true in Massachusetts. Some gun enthusiasts feel they need to buy more than 12 guns a year. Some parents in our besieged cities know they need fewer guns on the street. We live in a world where we have to find a reasonable balance between those needs.
This bill is it."
Yvonne Abraham is a Globe columnist.
**************************************************
This bill is nothing more than a repeat of the chronic illogical BS from another lying, unprincipled, hypocrite moonbat.
Ms Abraham, how about we the people legislate a cap on your pay to $50 a month(permanently), ten gallons of gasoline a month, three phone calls per week, four cups of coffee per week, NO wine or booze, one pair of shoes per year, one coat, ect.ect. Whats the difference?.......its more than most of the worlds populations get....surely you are no better than them.
Ms Abraham, you are part of the reason that the Boston Globe Democrat is failing.
You are a columnist, not a journalist......there's a difference and you will never be a journalist becuse you are too lazy to seek out and acknowledge the actual facts of gun control, too unprincipled to demand enforcement of existing laws and apply equal justice under those laws(something that every citizen is entitled to under the law).
You are too intellectually dishonest to admit that you and the Mass legislature have an ulterior motive of ultimately removing ALL guns from the public's hands, one law at a time, and lies come too easy to your lips/pen.
Journalists seek out and report facts, columnists write for their own entertainment and that of their mindless followers, hoping to hook some of the more ignorant, misinformed emotional readers into their belief system.
Truthfully, you don't deserve to live in my country and if I had the absolute power to evict you, you'd be gone as soon as I could get you to Logan Airport in handcuffs and shackles and on a plane to the Middle East or the Sudan where you could see and live the oppression you'd like to ultimately invoke here.....as long as you're exempted or course.
Speaking of the Middle East, people in the Middle East are more free than we are in the US when it comes to guns, they can keep a fullauto AK-47 (1 per household) and there's no $200 federal transfer tax paid, no fingerprint cards, no federal registration form 4 to be signed in duplicate by the local chief of police, no pictures, no state license, no FBI background check for every purchase, no federal form 4473, no MA FA-10 transfer registration form, no restrictions on ammunition, no restrictions on cosmetic attributes of their guns, no banned (by name) or by apperance guns, ect. They buy whatever they want whenever they want.
ALL their problems come from myopic oppressive people like you who run their governments, not the people themselves.
My buying one or one dozen guns a month isn't going to effect the behavior of some criminal gangbanger in urban Boston, Brockton, Springfield, Holyoke, Lowell, Lawrence, Worcester or Fall River.
You're too lazy to actually research and address the real problems of their urban violence. It has been the same old saw all my life and tired retreads like you writing about it over and over again for decades have done absolutely nothing to ever effect meaningful change.....because you never approach the real problems. All the gun laws passed in the last 50 years have done NOTHING to stop crime and have gotten more than one law abiding citizen killed in their own home or car for lack of being able to defend themselves because of some stupid Massachusetts gun law.
Gangs, drug addiction, single parent(mother only) broken homes, lack of family structure, joblessness, cultural behaviors, ignorance, welfare safety nets (handouts instead of a hand UP) that keep people in poverty(which is exactly what democrats want so they can continue to hand out other people's money and take credit for it).
Try addressing the real problems in your next column, you might recover some credibility.
