Actually, this is the law;
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

No local or state government was supposed to get away with violating it. Those who perpetrate such violations are subject to prosecution.

Now all we need is a prosecutor who will do his/her duty.

The term “ammunition” shall also mean tear gas cartridges, chemical mace or any device or instrument which contains or emits a liquid, gas, powder or any other substance designed to incapacitate." It's stupid, but it's the law. But this is MA, so I repeat myself. MGL Ch 140 Sec 121

It’s stupid, but it’s the law. But this is MA, so I repeat myself.

I chaperoned a field trip to an Indian museum and I bought arrowheads for souvenirs for all the kids. I had to give them to the teacher to clear them with the principal before passing them out to the kids. We’re not on a slippery slope, we’ve hit rock-bottom with teaching kids hoplophobia.

I need to show my card when buying ANY componants (bullets, primers, powder, cases) for handloading. It's illigal to have posession of fired cases (even rimfire). I'm pretty sure this is a felony in Mass. Sadly the paper didn't cover this law, as its VERY dumb, and all but the most idiotic liberals would see it as irrational.
