Ricochet, your post (meant in jest), is actually on point. How better to render our firearms ‘impotent’ than to control ammunition and reloading supplies.

Think about it...

Under my bill, only a licensed dealer may sell ammunition. It does not create a separate license for ammunition sales, but rather allows a business to use its existing license to sell both firearms and ammunition. When a person wishes to purchase ammunition, the licensee would have to contact the Pennsylvania Instant Check System (PICS), and the Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) would conduct a background investigation. A person who is prohibited by state law from possessing a firearm would also be prohibited from purchasing and possessing ammunition.

Moreover, my bill would allow individuals to apply for a PSP ammunition purchase authorization which if approved, would last for four years, and allow an individual to purchase ammunition during that time period without the need to get a background check for every ammunition purchase. The purchase authorization would be revoked by the PSP upon the occurrence of an event which would disqualify a person from purchasing a firearm or ammunition. Additionally, my bill codifies the existing procedure requiring handguns ordered online to first be shipped to a licensee for a PICS check, and applies this same procedure to online ammunition purchases.

his reasoning? aurora was able to purchase 6,000 rounds online as easy as buying crap off amazon.
don't recall aurora needing that much ammo but w/e logic and arguments are wasted on politicians, they mostly see in money.

I skimmed over the article. From what I read the title says it all. The scary part about this article is the comments. The majority of the comments that I read were in favor of gun confiscation and drool over the Australian gun laws. Boston is an extremely liberal city, and so is the state of Massachusetts. What can anyone really expect out of a place that gave us Mitt Romney and Ted Kennedy? Remember the search for the Boston Marathon Bomber? This article and opinions are coming from a city where the residents where placed under house arrest and had their homes searched without a warrant by a tactical team accompanied by a Humvee with a police officer in the turret aiming a real assault weapon at the house being searched. I never heard the residents of that city or its media outlets complain or criticize the police on that siege. I guess the residents of Boston believe the solution to gun violence is to give up your guns and let the police order you and your family outside your house at gun point the next time they are looking for a fugitive.

I hate to admit it, but unfortunately I think most (not all) Americans and gun owners would allow that to happen in most of the country.
Im not excusing it in anyway, but when an entire tactical team with armored personnel carriers show up in your driveway while you're there with your wife and kids standing next to you, 99.999% of the gun owners out there would say "well, okay".

The reality of it is, we as gun owners need to think very hard about what our personal choice is going to be when/if that time comes.
We need to know where our personal line in the sand is.

I hear a lot of people say "police and military would never go along with door to door gun confiscation on America".
Bullshit!
The vast majority of them will, with enthusiasm.

Police officers and military are just like most of the other people in this country. They are slaves to debt.
And when the chief tells his officers "we will start collecting guns in X,Y & Z neighborhood today and if you don't assist in the operation, you lose your job and pension immediately" those officers are going to buckle.

They'll capitulate and make excuses believing that the courts will just sort it out.

Im not belittling our officers at all, Im just being realistic and honest.

So how many of you have some of your firearms hidden away in places you hope the searchers won't find? Just like those that keep a mental list of guns bought from FFLs with paper trails vs those bought privately. The second list has undoubtedly been resold and you've lost contact with the buyer or they got swept away last time the Susquehanna flooded.

this is timely, as one of the items the NJ legislature is sure to pass is home inspections.
No you cannot come in. No I will not honor a warrant if you get one. If you make entry with out my permission, which you do not and will not ever have, I will treat you as a violent trespasser intent on doing me me deadly harm.

Hidden shit, mine are well oiled, magazines loaded, ready to go.

In response to ricochet's post, we would send the kids out, once they are safe, molon labe. Yep, I know i'd lose the battle...eventually, but I'm dying on my feet, not living on my knees.


A five gallon bucket of marbles ready to be knocked over in front of entryways is a good way to get people all jammed up if they come through your door stacked.

Many many more tricks out there, I 'm prepared and willing.
