If, after reading this post, you would like to help in addressing Connecticut Firearm issues, please consider sending your contact information to me at: edperuta@amcable.tv
Solving the problems and issues regarding firearms in Connecticut will take more than an annual 3 hour Second Amendment Rally at the State Capitol or selective support for individuals seeking public office.
There are many issues listed that need to be identified and addressed.
Your involvement may be the key.
For the record, I have and do support LAW ENFORCEMENT and the dedicated men and women who serve us day and night.
I would like nothing more than to convince every member of law enforcement that we ARE NOT the bad guys.
Regardless of whether you are reading this as a liberal, conservative, Democrat, Republican libertarian or a member of the Tea Party or Occupy movement, please take the time to think about the issues I present.
I can't help but wonder why we as individuals who own firearms post messages on the internet and discuss issues without any organized plan(s) to address the issues head-on.
I have spent the past five years of my life listening, reading and discussing firearm issues with individuals and groups in Connecticut and other states.
Ask anyone, and you will find that I have met and made many friends, (and some enemies), because of my involvement and opinions on firearms.
My very short experience with Connecticut firearms issues, leads me to believe that the following topics represent areas that need to be addressed and understood by everyone involved.
The roll of Law Enforcement in Second Amendment Rights
The roll of the courts in Second Amendment Rights
The use of firearms for self defense, hunting or investments
The need or lack of need for Permits and Eligibility Certificates
The current Permit Application process
The suitability requisite as it is currently determined by issuing authorities
The need for mandatory, (state specific), training
The need for expedited appeals of Firearm related issues
Legislation, Repealing or amending existing Connecticut law
Legislation, the need for new law following Heller and McDonald
Eligibility requirements to acquire and/or possess firearms
Possession of registered and unregistered firearms
The prohibitions against acquisition or possession of "ASSUALT TYPE WEAPONS"
The use or lack of use of "Risk Warrants" to seize firearms from an individual’s home
Problems with reporting mandates for lost or stolen firearms
Supporting those who have been wrongly accused or arrested in firearm cases
Specific and meaningful litigation when necessary
Addressing the Media and demanding balanced reporting on firearm issues
