Okay...Let's make sure we tell all of the Non FID and LTC holding criminals that they can no longer buy more than one gun on the street!! Keep the law abiding citizens in control and let the criminal run rampant!!!
YUP The "Devil" is at his good work!
I didn't know VA had a one gun a month limitl. In fact, I thought that was one of the complaints about VA that too many guns were sold. As to the other two states, I'll bet the violent crime rates in their cities are pretty high.
VA does have a limit but if you have a VA CCW you can bypass it and
buy as many as you want.

I just started a "whatever they call it" on Deval Patrick .com, the governor's BLOG, 1 Gun A Month : Crime Prevention : WRONG!
Can't wait to see the comments of others that disagree!!
One Gun Per Month. Limits gun buyers to the purchase of just one firearm per month, a measure already working in California, Maryland and Virginia.
Values, these gang bangers open fire on a PUBLIC bus have no values at all. The only thing that has a chance of working here is much tougher judges to put these people away for a long time, and thats NOT happening.
However... just for the sake of argument, let's say straw purchases in MA were a problem. The "one gun a month" plan would still be unneccisary as there is already a system in place to keep track of and go after the offenders... it's called an FA-10 and the CHSB.
MA also has a law requiring gun owners to report stolen or missing firearms (a common tactic of the straw buyers/sellers is to report the guns as stolen whether or not there's any legal requiremnet to do so).
Oh man.... this state is going down the shitter. Does anyone care to know what the REAL problem is? Because the pussy ass politicians don't want to address it. Here it is:
No values! Period. Fathers that aren't willing/nor care to be dads. Moms that don't have values and ability to manage things on thier own. People don't want to get invovled and work as a community or as families. Political and social changes that don't allow for proper discipline in schools, etc. It's never the PEOPLES' problem it's always the government's fault... or the rich people's fault. The list goes on. This stuff enrages me to no end!!!
Sure there are exceptions. I know, my mom raised us by herself... but it wasn't easy and we had a great extended family. However we had values and structure. There were consequences for my bad behavior. Religion, although we weren't devote church goers- was always part of our values and life. This is the answer my friends... all the gun control and after school programs won't do jack until these get squared up. Whether values come from your religion or not, society doesn't function well without them.
Exactly. How many Massachusetts residents have been charged and convicted of illegally transferring a firearm? And of that number, how many were unlicensed?I'd like to see some stats convincing me that this is a problem of any significance in MA.
I've never seen any information correlating this.
But then again... be rational isn't what he's trying to do.
Is the issue gone? I can't find it. It was listed in the "Most Recent" this morning.I just started a "whatever they call it" on Deval Patrick .com, the governor's BLOG, 1 Gun A Month : Crime Prevention : WRONG!
