Food for thought ....
How to Activate the Constitutional Militia in Your Area
Copyright © 1994 Constitution Society. May be copied with attribution for noncommercial purposes.
Once you have received and read the materials that may have accompanied this document , and have decided that the constitutional militia needs to be activated in your area, there are several things for you to do:
[] Try to find like-minded persons in your area. Ask around. Try patriotic organizations, such as the VFW and the American Legion. Sound out people at gun shows and gun stores. Ask if there is already a militia activated in your area or if anyone is considering it. Put out notices for interested persons to contact you.
[] Form a Safety Committee. Having found a few like-minded persons, meet together, share materials, and agree to issue a militia call-up.
[] Pick a suitable date, time, and place for the first muster. It should commemorate some historical event. Ideally, it should be in a highly visible location, within the municipal limits of a major community, and on public property.
[] Try to have a notable speaker or stage an event that will appeal to the media. Be creative. Although the first muster will primarily be an organizing meeting, it is also a media event and should be staged that way.
[] Publicize the muster. Post public notices in the local newspaper of record, on the courthouse public notices bulletin board, and in the newsletters of sympathetic civic groups. Mail and fax press releases to the media, especially talk radio stations. Try to get on as a guest of major talk radio programs, and call in announcements of the muster during listener call-in periods. The notices should answer the questions: Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How. Send along supporting documentation.
[] Compile patriot mailing lists. Enter them into a computer database if possible, or prepare mailing label masters for producing self-adhesive mailing labels for repeated use.
[] Prepare draft by-laws, regulations, and guidelines. Adapt them to your local situation. Make enough copies for the number of persons you expect to attend, and try to get the documents out to them in advance to save time trying to read them at the first meeting.
[] Mail announcements to as many people in your area as you can. The advertisements and radio broadcasts are important, but many people will also need something in their hands that they can read that will motivate them to attend. They need to come with some common understanding of what a militia is, how it can be organized, and what it might accomplish. You might include the draft by-laws and regulations in the mailing if you can afford the postage and copying costs.
[] Invite local officials and representatives of military and law enforcement organizations to attend. Try to involve them from the outset, to reassure them and win their support.
[] Prepare documents to be handed out at the muster. They should provide information and instruction on all the points that may be of interest and concern to the attendees. Make enough copies so that everyone can get one set, and make some extras for persons who could not attend.
[] Conduct the muster. The first order of business will be an introductory speech, followed by adoption of by-laws, regulations, and guidelines, then the election of the commander and other officers.
[] Give attendees an opportunity to speak. Let them voice their experiences, their feelings, their understanding of the situation, and their hopes. Build a resolve to recruit more participants, train them, and conduct more musters.
[] Elect a Safety Committee and a Correspondence Committee. Get the names, addresses, and phone numbers of participants. Pass out materials. Collect contributions toward the expenses of the muster and to pay for notices of future meetings. Agree on the date and place for the next meetings of the committees and perhaps of the next muster. Adjourn the muster.
[] Followup publicity. Issue press releases to the media. Visit reporters and explain what you are doing, providing them with literature. Get on talk radio and television.
[] Assist in activating the militia in neighboring counties. Encourage attendees from neighboring counties to go back and activate the militia in their own counties. Send organizing teams on a tour of the state and nation to find and motivate local leaders to do the same. Establish correspondence committees linking local militia units at all levels.
[] Set up regular training sessions and camps. Initially, each of these may need to serve a multi- county region. Shooting ranges, especially those that can simulate combat. Tactical military training. Police training. Emergency and medical training. Survival training. Seminars on constitutional law, on jury powers and duties, on investigation of official and corporate corruption and abuse, and on reform measures.
[] Set up an alert system. Establish and exercise a telephone tree. If feasible, set up neighborhood sirens or other sonic alert signals. Establish alternative communications networks, such as amateur radio, line-of-sight comm links, visual signals, and couriers. Establish links to the broadcast media, and contingency systems in the event that the media are shut down.
[] Either publish a newsletter or use an existing one. Sometimes several counties can combine their efforts in a regional newsletter. Maintain a steady flow of information and guidance to supporters.
[] Get on the Internet. Share information and plans with others across the country and around the world. Pass on the information to people not on the Internet through newsletters and handouts.
[] Recruit officials and civic leaders. Make sure all of them are informed of what you are trying to do, and make sure you know where each of them stands. Insist on strict construction of U.S. and State constitutions according to the original intent of the Framers, and make sure they know what that means. Line up both the high officials and rank and file of law enforcement and military organizations. Identify supportive judges and lawyers. Work to defeat opponents and replace them with supporters.
[] Set up regular booths at public events. Gun shows, fairs, conventions, political rallies.
[] Operate a speakers' bureau. Get your best speakers to speak before civic and other groups at every opportunity.
[] Do some fun things. Parties, picnics, and other events for the entire family.
[] Enforce the law. Investigate official and corporate corruption. Infiltrate corrupted agencies. Recruit whistleblowers. Protect witnesses, investigators, and their evidence. Get grand juries to bring indictments. Expose wrongdoing. Concentrate on vote fraud, corrupt judges and law enforcement officers, and other offenses that would not ordinarily receive official attention or that are being covered up.
[] Secure entire areas against attack. Make it infeasible for criminals of any kind to attack people in certain defensible areas, which can serve as safe havens for larger areas. Establish defensive perimeters around persons or organizations that might be particularly subject to attack. And establish mobility and secure communications in the event area security cannot be maintained.
[] Roll back unconstitutional legislation. Work on legislators. Pursue cases in court. Get rid of abusive officials. Go after the special interests that are the ultimate source of corruption and reduce their power.

It's not a myth, it's the data that the NY state police released in June last year. I don't believe they have released any further data, so it may have changed.

Thank you for this. I was not aware. I need to research it and see what are the actual numbers today. They may be just like us: Living on the borrowed time.
I understand now. They were suppose to register. Our disadvantage here is that we are ALREADY registered. Execution in such a case is much easier. To get the "list" is always a problem.

Unfortunately, the marrow sucking politicians learn from this and CT, registery will be tied to something like renewing your license and asking a binding question, or maybe even a home inspection for CCW renewal. Either way, regardless of what they come up with, I will not comply.

Compliance rate in CT is anemic as well. CT estimated 372k "assault" rifles in the state. They only received ~50k registrations and only ~38k magazine registrations.
372k rifles but only 38k magazines registered. There must be a lot of "community mags" down there.![[laugh]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/012.gif "Laugh [laugh]")

And it's not just in NY or CT. Gun bans are widely defied all around the world:

True. I work with a guy from Bosnia who claims everyone has guns hidden away over there.
I was so proud to see that my reps, Senator Harriet Chandler and Representative John Mahoney signed the document of outrage to the AG-NOT!
Chandler's office said she was getting calls, but I didn't get any calls back from here office, nor response to my emails.
Mahoney did respond to my email and phones calls, with the standard answer "The AG is not coming after you-don't worry!"
Maybe we should have try to have elections monthly? That could be our only chance of changing the scenery for these hacks!
I suggest EVERYONE make an appointment with their representatives and get in their faces.....show them that we are responsible law abiding citizens that refuse to have our rights stripped away.
It does not matter if they are anti or not.
MAKE THEM ACCOUNTABLE!
CALLS AND E-MAILS ARE OK, BUT NOTHING REINFORCES THE MESSAGE LIKE A FACE TO FACE!

They have edited it after it was initially published. The lead picture was originally one showing lots of people - and also the text has been changed.

My friend still sells them, he said it wasn't named and its technically not an AR gun. Things like the cx-9 or other berettas are in that grey area but, the laws are not specific to how can you tell. His gun store also never received a letter.

What I don't understand is 1994 ban has an expiration date. Do we have a document says that ban remained after 2004?
I saved a copy of the article as it originally appeared if anyone wants it. The original vs what is up there now are two very different articles.
If John Mahoney is your Rep, He can usually be seen walking around Indian Lake many evenings, on his way to and from Worcester Fitness. He has an unmistakable walk/gait. Stop him, Give him an earful!
So, in a nutshell...
One misguided politician here (our Attorney General) has just said that for the last 18 years all of law enforcement, the legislature, the court system (1000s of legal & political professionals) have been doing it wrong. Further, as the Massachusetts law is based on and directly references a US Federal law of 1994, this individual has stated that the entire United States of America did it wrong from 1994 to 2004. That'd be 10s if not 100s of 1000s of law enforcement, legal and political professionals (including a lot of Judges) that this one person is saying have not been doing it right for over 20 years at this point.
Does that about sum it up?

Mitt made it a state law in 98 copying it word for word .
AG called and told 'em to stick to the anti-2A narrative or she would outlaw the internet.

That's why she go after the "felons" who bought AR after 1994.
She can just issue another directive that the 1st amendment only applies to print media, as was originally designed. Any such freedom exercised over high capacity mediums such as electronic mail or the Internet is clearly outside of the original intent of the 1st amendment.
I notice this morning the national news is touting new polls claiming increasing support for gun control specific to ARs. It's obvious the DNC pimps are telling their pressitutes to ramp up turning tricks. Watch Healey show up at the national convention.
The state claimed 2500 rifles sold during the last day. How in the world could they know that with any accuracy? AR15 is not the only model name of the platform. Or are they stating the 2500 number is all 'high capacity' rifles?

Maura Healy does not give a damn about public safety. If she did, she might actually direct her office to try to increase the prosecution and long term incarceration of gang members and violent psychopaths when they kill or assault people, instead of letting them plead and get back on the street in a matter of days, yet somehow implicating
lawful gun owners as the people who are responsible for violent death and mayhem in our state.

Great idea. And I would go one further. Start having conversations with people who would normally not care about a "gun issue". Stress that today it is guns, tomorrow it could be something you care about. My mother is in her 70's and to my knowledge has never even held a gun, let alone been concerned about any gun issues. When it was explained to her that one or more of her children woke up on Wed. a felon....well lets just say she will not be voting for anyone associated with this abuse of power.
Politicians look at the numbers when they go for these rights grabs. When they realize that the non gun owning friends and relatives of those of us directly affected by this rights grab aren't going to allow a petty politician to criminalize people they care about....That's when they will back down. I have yet to speak to a person face to face about this that is happy with what occured.
