Additional Comments: Tells Gun Owners of Vermont in 2014: "We have more important things to think about than changing the gun laws."
Then in 2015, supports S.141 “Mr. Speaker: I voted yes. I am a gun owner. For the past 30+ years as an investigator in the Public Defender system I have worked on hundreds of cases to keep Vermonters from losing their rights to possess firearms. I voted for this because it makes sense. It strongly represents states rights, it represents the wishes of a majority of Vermonters. This is not a gun control bill. This is not a background check bill. U.S. Attorney’s offices often do not prosecute firearm case due to lack of resources. This bill makes sense.”
Rep Troiano LIED to the House as prosecution of criminals for firearm offenses is NOT due to lack of resources but because the cases are plea bargained or not severe enough to clog the court system with. This was per ATF testimony in Montpelier, 2015. |
