EDITORIAL: Connecticut gun owners revolt Widely flouted registration law puts legislators in a bind

Laws are more than just symbolic gestures. Connecticut's General Assembly must come to grips with this truth before its recent effort to “save lives” ends up destroying them.

State law enforcement officials are now in the difficult position of dealing with one of the most widely flouted laws since the end of the 55 miles-per-hour speed limit and Prohibition. If it’s really serious, the state will have to find space to imprison 300,000 residents for the next five years.

The first article of the Connecticut Constitution couldn’t be more clear. “Every citizen has a right to bear arms in defense of himself and the state,” it says.

 

We hope that calmer heads prevail in Hartford. Respect for the law is essential for society, but this presupposes the laws themselves are worthy of respect.

The General Assembly must do what Congress did in repealing the speed limit in 1995 and the states did in ending Prohibition in 1933.

If it saves just one life, it’s worth it.

 

In one of the comments someone mentions that there will be a rally at the CT capitol in April. Can you imagine if even half of the people who didn't register showed up and demanded to be arrested and tried?

That does look better. But it would tie up the courts nearly as long.
