The CCDL President also stated that other elected officials who went along with the Senate leader and voted in favor of the gun control law could expect the same from the organization.
I would expand on the CDDL President's position to include any candidate who would stand with an anti-gunner like McKinney not being worthy of my support or my vote either.
Plaintiffs and Request for Injunctive Relief: As you know, our legal team filed the lawsuit, Shew, et al. v. Malloy, et al., on May 22, 2013 in federal court in Connecticut. The plaintiffs are: June Shew, Stephanie Cypher, Brian McClain, Andrew Mueller, Mitchell Rocklin, Peter Owens, Hiller Sports, LLC, MD Shooting Sports, LLC., the Connecticut Citizen’s Defense League (“CCDL”), and the Coalition of Connecticut Sportsmen (“CCS”). Shortly after filing suit, we filed a request for immediate temporary injunctive relief, asking the court to stop the implementation and enforcement of the new law. In support of our request for injunctive relief, our legal team filed expert reports demonstrating that the law not only fails to make Connecticut citizens more safe – perversely, it actually makes Connecticut citizens less safe.
Obamacare is a disaster that gets worse everyday.
It will make healthcare worse for every American (except the rich). Just wait, this is never ending train wreck.
I never underestimate our state Republican party's ability to do the wrong thing. I have no doubt they will likely give McKinney their nomination even though he sold us down the river. I have spoken to quite a few Republicans who are pledging that if McKinney is the candidate for governor they are promising to either vote for Malloy, a 3rd party candidate or not vote at all for that office to send a strong message to our party that we don't accept anti-gun McKinney. The Republican's chances of winning are already a long shot with the entire party united, so how can they possibly think they will win with a candidate that so many Republicans will not support, or are they counting on getting a portion of the Democrat votes because of his liberal positions?
Move to another state if you idiots cannot get over the fact that CT is bluer than blue! The federal government will never pass legislation that bans what CT did so move to a more friendly state as there is no help here!
Why do you think so many people are fleeing Connecticut that we lost a Congressional district due to our dwindling population, because Connecticut is so wonderful that people are flocking here to be ruled by communists?
As far as McKinney goes, Republicans should "just say NO!"
The question is whether the NRA or CT's Working Families Party will turn out more people?
What a disaster! The republican base doesn't seem happy and the Working Families Commie buddies are protesting too!!!
If Mr. McKinney actually cared about doing something to prevent future gun violence, he would have voted against the legislation and offered his own bill that would actually deal with the REAL PROBLEM: Crazy people who cause mayhem and murder by breaking our existing laws. (Adam Lanza broke at least a 1/2-dozen state and federal laws and none of the elements of the new law would have prevented him from committing either the Sandy Hook murders or anything similar.)
Sen. McKinney: Stop being disingenuous and start owning up to your own hypocrisy. Propose and pass meaningful legislation instead of piggybacking on useless laws that capitalize on the pain and suffering of innocents and play into the objectives of a President Hell-bent on eliminating the 2nd Amendment.
Sounds like just about nobody is happy with the bozo coming to town. Why would any candidate want to put their campaign in such a position?
John McKinney, Republican State Senator from Newtown, has sold out the Constitution yet again.
He led the charge to pass the recent gun bill in CT.
The bill was passed out hours before the vote.
The bill was passed before the final report on Newtown.
Just on these two items alone, anyone who voted for this should be permanently disqualified from running for office.
This does not even get into the unconstitutionality of the bill, both at the state and federal level, as well as the fact it does not address the problems associated with school shootings: Gun Free Zones.
You all can be as unhappy with McKinney as you wish and blame your dislike for him on Erin Stewart. On the other hand most all of you don't min d O'Brien spending $100K of taxpayer funds on Roy "Big Eyes" Occhiogrosso for nothing at all; you don't mind O'Brien spending $%0 or $60K on has been State Rep. Pudlin to help him out for finding a questionable development firm to plan a new, possible housing slum at the upper part of Main St.; you don't mind spending $46 K to hire the wife of Alderman Rha Sheen Browm to be a community organizer (have the Browns paid their back taxes yet?); you don't mind O'Brien hiring two carpetbaggers(one from Berlin and one from Hartford) as aides and spending over $100 thousand dollars plus benefits of taxpayer funds to do so, but let the GOP candidate for Mayor of NB accept an appearance at a fundraiser from someone you don't like and you go bananas. Typical leftwing B.S.
Thank you Frank for bringing this to the public's attention. I was going to support Erin and had planned on sending in a donation to her campaign. I am sorry to say that as a result of learning about this event I can not support her because I can not bring myself to support any candidate for any office that would apparently idolize a gun banner like McKinney to the point that they would invite him to be their guest of honor at a fundraising event. We all have choices to make and I will choose to send my campaign donations to candidates who stand for supporting the Constitutions of the state and the nation--both of which protect a citizen's right to bear arms. I believe enough Republicans share my views that McKinney will be unlikely to win a primary and therefore is very unlikely to be the endorsed candidate for governor, but either way I will not support him because I believe he screwed over 200,000 law abiding citizens with his liberal gun banning legislation that has no chance of protecting anyone and does more harm than good by making criminals out of law abiding citizens.
Gun advocates have designated Aug. 9 as “Starbucks Appreciation Day” and planned gatherings in coffee shops across the country, including Newtown. Starbucks does not prohibit customers from entering its stores with firearms in states that have open-carry laws.
How could this guy have 12 loaded magazines? You mean he didn't run in and register them as required by McKinney's new law which supposedly would prevent this from ever happening???????
OLD LYME — A 46-year-old man allegedly commandeered a boat and inspected boaters' registrations in the Point O' Woods area while impersonating a police and U.S. Coast Guard official on Thursday, state police said.
He wore military fatigue pants. He admitted to walking on Sea View Drive wearing a black gun belt with a loaded 9mm pistol in a holster, police said.
Troopers found three loaded 9mm handguns, a black nylon duty belt with two sets of handcuffs, an expandable baton and 12 fully loaded magazines with a total of 101 hollow point and 102 ball 9mm bullets in Browne's vehicle.
Lets all get together and vote for McKinney in the primary so we can absolutely guarantee Malloy 4 more years!
