So in laymen’s terms. What did we lose today ?
On Saturday, November 4, experience revolutionary politics “indoors” and “out-of-doors” as it would have happened 250 years ago. Participate in a live reenactment at Faneuil Hall of a Boston town meeting which took place in October 1767. Join in the discussion as local citizens argue over whether or not to stop importing British goods. Following the town meeting, join a rowdy procession of laboring-class Bostonians of 1767 from Faneuil Hall to the Old State House, as they express their disapproval of British trade policies in a rather colorful and intimidating way.
2:30 and 4:00 pm: “Revolutionary Town Meeting: 1767 Townshend Acts” Stand up! Speak Out! Join a lively meeting to debate Boston’s response to the hated Townshend Acts. Character cards are available. Free, 30 minutes, Faneuil Hall, Great Hall, second floor.
Revolution 250 is a consortium of organizations working together to commemorate the 250th anniversaries of the events that led to American Revolution.
are you intentionally trying to drive me into total mental meltdown?????????????
Someone's triggered
I guess I'm an old guy now
We had all better go apply for MG Green cards then - I will go inquire at my local PD tomorrow - see what they say.
I was already told no MGs in my town. Plus, if I only want for my bump stock that’s apparently not a reason. This is confiscation, pure and simple. If this isn’t challenged in court, bad stuff will follow. Pretty much our only chance (short of revolution)
good luck getting a c&r ffl and then a MG license in the time allotted by the regs. what a f#cking joke.
I wrote a bill to remove suitability, my rep, a lib, was willing to file it on my behalf, he was even going to have his staff help with the language. But the reality is that without sponcers you don't have a chance. I decided not to move forward.Could we use the "right of free partition" to file a bill to have the state laws changed to be less restrictive?

Of course it matters. That's a very sweet notion when you're the one doing the firing and hiring. When that accountant embezzles money and you want to sh!tcan him right then and there... but then you find out that the people he was stealing your money for have the legal right to name his replacement and want even more of your money, you take a minute and think you about things.
I am pissed, too. Charlie is a weasel and I will happily vote for a better option if one presents itself. But sorry, if it comes down to a choice between him and Maura, I'm sure as heck not voting for her and I'm not staying home. I'm holding my nose and voting the same way I always have in this godforsaken state.
This is as much a win for us as a rapist deciding to use lube is a win. You're still boned either way.

So, the point of this whole exercise, was not to defeat a ban on bump stocks, which we knew were boned from the start.
The goal was to defeat the Linsky language, was it not? which looked like an impossible fight, but we did it!! Shouldnt we be celebrating??
I really don't feel like celebrating Massachusetts passage of unconstitutional laws!
Well, everyone got what they wanted; no Linsky language.
Refer to 1 and points A, B, and C. Since you are from Texas maybe you don't have the context to comprehend how fubar MA is and the extent to which our rights are under attack at all times. This shit was going down one way or another and the other way would have been a black hole of infinite suck. Welcome to the People's Republic.You really think that a BAN is a WIN?! What kind of ****ed up logic is that?
No. The libs and those who are OK with giving away our rights got what they wanted. The rest of us got F*cked.
Well, everyone got what they wanted; no Linsky language.
I don’t know if F*cked is the word but read the thread. You got what you wanted.
As Eddie Coyle stated days ago...there were only two options. Pile of sh!t and bigger pile of sh!t. This is Massachusetts...as soon as it was mentioned that a madman possess a bumpstock in Vegas...it was a done deal. Anyone who thought differently is living in a dreamworld. There was no way to stop this train. None. For God sake the AG unilaterally made an unconstitutional law. This was the best piece of crap we were going to get.
Linsky and DeLeo are praying for another tragedy...to finish the job.
If there is a shooting in Massachuesetts with a pre-ban high cap mag...watch what happens...there will be no way to stop it.
