Wake up folks, time to start sending in those letter to your reps. . . . Obviously our good Governor is looking to spend our money on court costs since he seems determined to interfere with out rights as spelled out in Heller. I just saw this in the news:
On Sunday July, 13, 2008 Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick filed a special appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008. (As of the filing of this report, the bill had not yet received a number.) Within this bill sections 24 - 27 drastically increase certain firearm licenses.
Sections 24 & 25 attack lawfully licensed firearm dealers by increasing their license fees from $100 for three years to $250. Then it adds a $100 inspection fee in years two and three of the license. This tactic would now turn a $100 three year dealer's license into a $450 three year license.
Section 26 would increase a resident License to Carry fee from $100 for six years to $200 for six years.
Section 27 would increase a non-resident License to Carry fee from $100 for one year to $250 for one year.
This is an outrages attack on our rights as defined by the US Supreme Court in the Heller Decision. This opens up our state for a costly court battle over charging unreasonable costs for something that should be free or cost only enough to cover processing. We have so many problems in this state and we go looking to make more. I can't wait to see this fool governor voted out of office. My fear is we will have an even bigger fool with the same agenda in the White House
