Vermont folks love their guns, and there are very few restrictions on gun ownership – like Arizona, if you can legally own a firearm, you can carry it concealed without permission from the State. Of course, the handwringers need to change that, despite the fact that the feds have said that Vermont is the safest state in the union in regards to crime. They have introduced Senate Bill 31 to change all of that, according to the Associated Press<\/a> – mainly by expanding background checks to include private sales that aren’t between family members. You know, the same thing that Democrats in the US Senate tried last year in an attempt to open a back door to gun registration.<\/p>\n

Hunters have nothing to worry about, said Ann Braden of Brattleboro, president of the group Gun Sense Vermont, which supports the measure.<\/p>\n

“This legislation doesn’t affect the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens. It’s focused exclusively on keeping guns out of the hands of convicted abusers, violent felons, and drug traffickers,” she said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, hunters have nothing to do with this – it’s firearm ownership. Period. The flatlanders have been trying to change Vermont ever since Bernie Sanders became the mayor of Burlington. The Senate Bill includes restricting firearms ownership for the mentally ill and felons – things federal law does already. The thing they want to do is get the expanded background checks and the other elements are just distractions. It has flatlander Nanny Bloomberg’s fingerprints all over it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
