    Yet NYC, Chicago and several other cities do it.

    It is really pretty stupid trying to ban this this stuff since CTs strict laws regarding these items have proven not to do a goddamn thing. So called "highly educated" people are actually pretty friggin stupid.

    Why don't they just ban rape and murder too? Then they can have a Utopia up there.

    Those are patently Unconstitutional.

    What if a city forced its residents to house soldiers? Would that be okay since it was a locality? Of course not!

    The same applies with the 2A.

    Citation of law? Local municipalities (even in PA) regulate and/or prohibit hundreds of things that aren't addressed at the state and federal level.

    Actually, they do. Most states have preemption laws in place which don't allow municipal regulation of firearms. Connecticut is not one of them.

    Isnt a city supposed to be at least a class 1 city to enact laws same as state and federal level? NYC, CHicago and Philthy are class 1 cities.

    Again, citation of law?

    This thread is short on facts, and long on supposition.
