- These are the moments that must make the founding fathers,
many from Massachusetts spin in their graves.
-
- As many on here know I am a cop in Mass. and a boss at
that. That being said I was over at the AG's office on Friday speaking
with a couple of AG's investigators who I know from my time on the job,
on another matter, when the topic turned to the murder trial of Wellesley
Allergist Doctor Dirk Greineder, (these cops know I am in PA school and
will be leaving police work very shortly and were kidding if there is a
kill your wife course in medical studies due to the fact we have had four
MD's in Massachusetts involved in homicides or serial rapes).
-
- Anyway, they get around to the talk in their office of
what the AG Tom Reilly, has up his sleeve reeling from his latest victory
in Federal Court on setting standards and regulating at his discretion
for firearms and purchases of same, under consumer protection authority.
Reilly is a truly anti-gun, anti-citizens rights etc, DEMOCRAT , anybody
from Mass knows his MO.
-
- The AG wants to set a whole new standard in Massachusetts,
and he has laid the foundation for it. In the Murder case I mentioned above
the weapon of choice was not a firearm, but a claw hammer. FYI a large
number of biker gangs and criminals carry these, as there is no provisions
in the MGL (Mass General Law? -ed) that these are Dangerous Weapons, to
inflict injury.
-
- The AG has a great plan: controlled sales of these items.
"Huh?" I shook my head, but oh no. Here in Massachusetts our
knee jerk reactions are legendary. So, the word is that in 2002, to buy
this type of Industrial Tool, one must be a licensed contractor, builder,
electrician or tradesman. Any Industrial tool capable of delivering a directed
blunt force to specific area at the discretion of the operator, shall have
warnings attached with it.
-
- Further all sales of said items shall be recorded in
a prescribed manner as set forth by the AG, to include the pedigree of
purchaser and any license number, all retailers that sell these items shall
record such information, and forward copies to the Mass. Dept. of Public
Safety, the AG's office and the Mass. Div. of Information and Technology,
who shall compile such information of sales, including date and place of
purchase, and serial number of said tool into a data base that will be
accessible through the BOP records and LEAPS.
-
- Notwithstanding of any legislation to the contrary, all
purchasers must posess the required tradesmans license and must state the
purpose and intent of the purchase, further any retailer who fails to record
such purchases, or who sells said Industrial Tools to a non licensed person,
can face fines or imprisonment and loss of licenses and permits to conduct
trade in Masssachusetts.
-
- I though they were BSing me but then they showed me the
draft copy of the regulation.
-
- This will deter people from killing...
