Note that the AWB would effectively outlaw the Ruger 10-22 as well as some other mag-fed .22RF firearms.

Since the RI AFL-CIO has chosen to get involved, perhaps union members might want to send letters/e-mails to union management about this.

After that, consider resigning from your Union:  HERE  There is no reason to continue to support those working against your 2A rights.

I’m glad I leave this state in less than a month. I wish you all the best.

Fair seas to ya!

Some thoughts:

1) If the RI Mag Ban was "effective", why is an "Assault" Rifle Ban even necessary?  If the RI Mag Ban was NOT effective, then will it be repealed as being ineffective?

2) RI General laws prohibit a "Firearms Registry".  Since this AWB requires registration of some firearms, is it not illegal on its face?

3)  Article 1, Sec 22 of RI Constitution states (in full):  "The right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."   Is this proposed bill an "infringement" and thus Unconstitutional with respect to the RI Constitution?  If a legislator votes for this bill, are they not violating their oath taken as a legislator?

They don’t care.


Further more this is being promoted by the same Union that gave us the Washington Bridge fuck up.

For sure some of the Pols don't care, but some might care, especially when their Constituents bring these points (and others) to the attention of the Pols who are "on the fence".  Election time is always around the corner in RI.
