Last week, a year after the passage of rushed and poorly drafted gun restrictions in Connecticut, the organization Connecticut Against Gun Violence issued a press release celebrating the anniversary and deriding gun owners for continuing to call for repeal of the law.
“Nonetheless, gun rights activists are holding a rally at the Capitol on April 5 to protest the law. They are demanding that the law, which they call “one of the most unconstitutional gun laws in the nation”1 be enforced or repealed, warning that “State-provoked chaos and violence will be required to enforce the anti-gun laws.”2
A coalition of state Gun Rights Prevention Groups will be holding a press conference on Thursday, April 3, at 10:00 am at the State Capitol, 3rd Floor, Old Judiciary Room. ( See logos below of participating organizations).

And in case it gets memory-holed:
Hat Tip Say Uncle
hah. classic.
So does this mean we can now call them “Rights Prevention Groups” to their faces?
You haven’t been doing that? 😀
I’ve been calling them “Anti-rights groups,” but to their faces I just call them “anti-gun.”
It works in my case because the people I call “Anti-gun” CLAIM to be pro-gun before turning around the very next sentence and saying “But I do think that all guns should be registered and confiscated and you shouldn’t have more than 5 bullets in a magazine-clip and honestly if someone breaks into your home, you should do the noble thing and stab yourself in the chest so they don’t have to. I’d never defend myself with a gun.”
Miguel which states border did you sneek across to get here?
I am tempted to wax long and poetically about a dangerous boat ride and then brave the infamy of a desert…but I just took a plane.
