Looks like we'll be breaking the law in Oregon, too. "Private transfer gun owner registration bill fast-tracked in Oregon."

The Bill in question is Senate Bill 941, being represented by proponents as merely a “background check” measure. That OFF responds by calling it a registration bill is hardly hyperbole. No less an authority than the U.S. Department of Justice, in a 2013 National Institute of Justice summary report on firearms violence prevention strategies, noted “Universal background checks ... Effectiveness depends on the ability to reduce straw purchasing, requiring gun registration...”

Oregon. Ain't that the state where you can do jail time for collecting rain water on your porch?

The underground gun economy is going strong here behind enemy lines in Kommiecticut. Sales between individuals using cash with no state paperwork are happening pretty regular. Especially one I found out about yesterday that took me by surprise, because of the individual involved as the buyer for a Yugoslavian SKS. The transaction as well as the rifle are absolutely verboten here.

SUCK IT, MALLOY, LAWLOR, JEPSEN, and BLOOMBERG!!!

Might as well make the West Coast you second home.
Actually the economy is stronger and all is well here. Except for gun liberties, I guess. Oh, well...
