Browse? Sure. Every transaction needs a background check on the FBI system. No FFL is going to risk their business by not doing that.

I didn’t say throw them out! Lol taking words completely out of context. All I’m saying is it would do the public and our legislators a good service to better educate themselves.
Also counterpoint: NH has almost no gun laws and the lowest rate of gun crime in the nation. Correlation ≠ causation

You can mock me and downvote me if you want, but hear me out. They don’t! My point we already have an “assault weapons ban” in MA, but you can still buy a SCAR in MA, you can still by an AR15 in MA, you can still get large capacity mags as long as they were made before 1994 in MA (they’re only $40) It’s not a dismissive comment, im saying lawmakers legitimately do not understand. The laws do literally nothing!

Lol. And here’s the problem with people in our state. No one even knows what an AR is but they want to ban it. The current AWB is clearly written by someone with no understanding of guns.

I don’t think the fact that I’m not willing to overextend and jeopardize my retirement savings is the issue… supply is the issue.

For context my wife and I are $180k in HHI and we can’t afford a home where we want. 3 beds and 2 baths are $450k +. It’s insane

Totally makes sense. Why would someone want to trade a 2.5% mortgage for a 7% mortgage?

Lol obviously you’ve never gone through the woods of boxford, Topsfield, Ipswich, etc. High beams are absolutely necessary, just know when to shut them off. Also helpful in identifying the pedestrians dressed head to toe in dark clothing walking on the side of the road at night. Smh

I hope the city goes through with this. When I worked in food service it pained me that our policy was to throw everything out at the end of the day. Perfectly good food.

To be fair, Healey as Attorney General refused to prosecute these people when she absolutely could have. Don’t have a ton of reason to believe she’d follow through on this either. She could have done plenty and didn’t.
