Candidate Articles:
Article #1:
Proposed H.124 (firearms regulation - illegal under the Vermont Constitution):
1.) Ban on magazines with the capacity for more than 10 rounds (would outlaw almost all semi-auto PISTOLS as well)
2.) Require NIC check at gun shows (already being done voluntarily)
3.) Allow Vermont officers to enforce Federal law.
4.) Require registration and training for 'concealed carry'.
5.) Require all mental health professionals to report to NIC.
6.) Repeal prohibition on sale or use of silencers (threw us a bone on that one).
Article #2:
Proposed H.243 (firearms regulation - illegal under the Vermont Constitution):
This bill proposes to make it a crime for a person to negligently leave a firearm accessible to a child (Even if no harm is done! - This can be enforced how? Illegal search.
Article #3:
Proposed H.735 (firearms regulation - illegal under the Vermont Constitution):
This massive piece of gun control legislation was attached inside a 'fee' bill to slide it through Montpelier without anyone noticing.
Gun Owners of Vermont not only noticed, but fought it all the way to the end.
If you haven't followed the history and sordid past of this bill, visit the Gun Owners of Vermont Facebook page and jump over to the FILE section. Many downloadable documents outlining this unconstitutional bill will give you the details.
As of May 10, 2014 Act 191 is LAW.
Anyone ACCUSED of 'domestic violence' under a temporary Relief from Abuse Order (unadjudicated - Violation of Article 10), can now have the their house illegally searched without a warrant (violation of Article 11), ALL items that can be deemed 'weapons' (guns, ammunition, knives, baseball bats, bows, axes, etc) will be confiscated by Law Enforcement (violation again of Article 11) and held at the ACCUSED's repayment of fines when a permanent order is lifted.
Article #4:
Letter from Cindy Ellen Hill, Esq.:
Why H.735 is unconstitutional and yet it still passed by the incumbents in Montpelier.
H.735 opens up the Pandora's Box on Illegal Search and Seizure.
