So, on Wednesday morning the AG announces the new policy and dealers believe that they have until the end of the day to stop selling. Of course, sales blow through the roof and now Healey wants a take-back of every rifle sold that day, along with punishing the dealers. http://commonwealthmagazine.org/guns/healey-triggers-gun-buying-frenzy/ Healey triggers gun-buying frenzy 2,500 assault weapons sold in one day in defiance of AG’s order Jack Sullivan Jul 21, 2016 A GUN-BUYING FRENZY that resulted in 2,500 assault weapons being purchased Wednesday – one-fourth the total sold all of last year – has forced Attorney General Maura Healey into threatening dealers with criminal penalties and the loss of their licenses for trying to beat her crackdown on the rifles. According to data from the state Firearms Records Bureau, gun enthusiasts bought 2,549 rifles on Wednesday, the same day Healey announced that her office would rigidly enforce a 1998 law that prohibits the sale of specific semi-automatic guns such as AK-47s and AR-15s, as well as "copies or duplicates of the weapons.” By contrast, 132 of the guns were sold on Tuesday and just 51 on Monday. About 10,000 of the guns were sold in 2015. The purchases were in defiance of an order issued by Healey that none of the guns could be sold in Massachusetts after Tuesday. Now Healey, whose intent was to get rid of the weapons, finds herself in the awkward position of trying to undo a run on what she has called "weapons of war” after they’ve already been sold. While Healey’s office remained silent on what would happen to those who bought the guns Wednesday, her spokeswoman said dealers could face criminal or civil sanctions for the sales. The statute calls for up to two years in jail for selling the banned guns. The key issue is when Healey’s order took effect. In a directive made to the state’s 350 gun dealers on Tuesday she ordered them to cease selling the weapons "immediately.” At her press conference announcing the directive on Wednesday, she said none of the weapons could be sold after Tuesday. Her spokeswoman, however, said on Thursday that the attorney general’s directive took effect at the time of her announcement, presumably on Wednesday. (Healey also wrote about her new policy in an op-ed in the Boston Globe that appeared online on Tuesday and ran in the Wednesday paper.) Healey said she was stepping up because of the scores of spree shootings that have killed dozens of people around the country. Surrounded by clergy, victims’ families, police chiefs, and prosecutors, she made the passionate plea to rid the state of the assault weapons like those used in the slaughter of 20 children at Sandy Hook Elementary school in Connecticut, 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando, and the killings of five Dallas police officers and three more in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Healey claims gun manufacturers make minor or cosmetic changes to the guns while maintaining the same functions and then market them as "Massachusetts compliant.” She said the directive was not a new rule or even a change but just an enforcement of the 18-year-old statute that she says has been abused by manufacturers. "The gun industry doesn’t get to decide what’s compliant,” she said when making her announcement. "We do.” She said people who purchased the rifles prior to her order would be able to keep them and no dealers would be prosecuted if they sold them before then. Christopher Pinto, president of the advocacy group Massachusetts Gun Rights, Inc., of Worcester, claimed he bought an AR-15 for his wife on Wednesday to beat Healey’s directive and insisted he intends to keep it. "What is she going to do, come to my house and get it?" asked Pinto, who was in Cleveland as a delegate at the Republican National Convention. A group of gun owners gathered at the State House Thursday evening to protest Healey’s action, with another rally planned on Saturday when the Legislature is in session. Many said Healey’s decision was not an enforcement of the law but rather stemmed from her interpretation based on what they say is her anti-gun stance. Most in attendance said they own the types of rifles Healey says are illegal. Even though she said she won’t take action against those who bought them before Wednesday, the protesters said they were concerned she could change her mind and arbitrarily confiscate their weapons in the future. "The system is set up to debate and we can have due process,” said Archie Taylor, 45, of Dracut. "It’s not anybody’s right to tell us what we can protect ourselves with. Police and other law enforcement officials can have these guns but a private citizen can’t? Everyone is human, everyone is fallible. What makes them any more special than us?” http://commonwealthmagazine.org/guns/healey-backs-down-on-threat/ ATTORNEY GENERAL MAURA HEALEY decided to allow those who bought nearly 2,300 assault weapons in Massachusetts to keep their new guns even though they were purchased after she ordered the sales stopped. But Healey has not backed away from her threat to levy criminal or civil sanctions against dealers who sold one of the banned assault weapons in defiance of her declaration that the "copycat” semi-automatic rifles are illegal under a 1998 state law.
"Our enforcement notice on Wednesday was very clear that it was effective immediately,” Jillian Fennimore, a spokeswoman for Healey, said in a statement. "Gun dealers and manufacturers in Massachusetts are now on notice and our office will be watching for illegal sales of these copycat assault weapons. In light of the fact that many people apparently acted in the belief that they had until the end of the day on Wednesday to buy these weapons, our office will not take enforcement action under state law with regard to any transactions made by individual purchasers acting in good faith that were finalized on Wednesday, July 20.” Sell another 2300 and include 1000 rounds of ammo and mags for each and I wonder what they'd say... Sooner or later we're going to have to call their bluff. |

Seriously guys, I wish you the best. I hope we all can get involved in some way and help. First they came for the guns in NY, I didn't speak out because I didn't live in NY. Then They came for the guns in CA, I didn't speak out because I didn't live in CA. Then they came for the guns in MA and I didn't speak out because I didn't live in MA then they came for my guns and there was no one left to speak for me. We are all in this together. |

Not much in the way of open carrying today. Saw only a couple of guys with AR blue guns.

I see a fair number of older/retired people. If someone could set up a rotating schedule and have 15-20 per day protesting it would drive home the point that this is not a one and done deal.

One GOP lawmaker said Attorney General Maura Healey’s new push to ban so-called “copycat” assault rifles will likely face legal challenges, at least before legislators can find time to address her crackdown.
“I expect there will be lawsuits of this overreach of power, of redefining a product the way she has,” said state Sen. Don Humason, a Westfield Republican, adding that with only a handful of sessions before the July 31 deadline, Healey’s ban left concerned lawmakers little time to study it. View Quote More here |

They'll get a warrant and come to your house during the day and seize everything. It might work that way at first... Exactly. Any tactic I can think of only has a short term success rate until previously law-abiding citizens organize. No-knocks, day time seizures, road blocks/check points, etc...only work when there's a few individuals being targeted. Once a good amount aren't going with the flow, watch out. Gun owners outnumber potential gun grabbers exponentially so even if a small percentage resist, game is over...or at least on. What happened during the last panic was people would swoop in to such threads and talk about how people had too much to lose so nothing would happen. Might be true. But the founders had just as much to lose just at a technologically different time period. And where it was mentioned we might not want to give up the internet, tv, etc. they gave up things like shoes and food at times. This AG seems to be clearly overstepping her limitations. She needs to be made an example of QUICKLY before others start following suit in their respective states. However, given the current political climate up in MA, I highly doubt the gov. will fire/penalize here o do anything other than kiss her ass. -Emt1581 |

What do you guys need from us out of Staters? View Quote Support. Donate to Comm2A and NRA-ILA. Write emails([email protected]) and call the Governors office(617-725-4005). Encourage online retailers to not shut us off. We are still allowed to get parts, but places like PSA and Aero Precision have denied shipping to MA since Wednesday. Places like Weapon Outfitters and Ranier Arms have been good to us. |
