It's all BS, just pablum to Maura's followers. Maura knows the "guidance" is illegal and would never fly. Even thou she would have no problem spending the Ma. budget surplus on lawyers to defend new firearm laws she knows the Courts would eventually slap her down along with NY/NJ/CA. I believe Maura plays the long game.
looks like, according to the fram very cordial gestapo enforcer - it does do fly very much. like not getting your ltc much.

Strengthening and Enforcing Gun Laws - Andrea Campbell
Every Massachusetts resident has the right to feel safe in their homes, schools, and grocery stores, but the Supreme Court’s recent decision to expand gun rights has very serious implications that will undermine or eliminate the very laws that keep us safe. Those disproportionately harmed or...www.andreacampbell.org
Bolster gun safety training requirements:
I have no idea what the incoming governor may have up her sleeve but it's probably not going to be pretty.
- Work with state police on an enhanced gun safety curriculum for new gun owners, focusing on safe handling, safe storage, and the risks of unsecured guns.
- Advocate to the Massachusetts Legislature to require regular range certification, safety, training and a written safety test as a prerequisite for obtaining a gun license.
The legislature has a number of gun control laws in the pipeline as well.
One of the incoming attorney general's more bizarre proposals is this:
This absolutely flies in the face of our "one strike and you're out"policy when it comes to being classified as a "prohibited person".
- Address disparities in legal gun ownership that all too often criminalize individuals in communities of color and create a program to expunge the records of those who demonstrate responsible behavior after a charge of illegal possession.
It sounds like if you're a white guy at Harvard Sportsmens Club who gets caught with a 30-round post-ban magazine its game over but a black teenager scootering around Dorchester with a Taurus G3C in his hoodie pocket is going to get a second chance.
Like I said I'd like to know where the LT's "guidance" came from?
I would think any competent Attorney willing to take the case would have field day with the LT's excuse.ain`t we all... i mean, would like to know.
but it is a surprise, baby.

The bullshit laws were written months ago. They are just waiting for tall Devol to leave
Baker started this in August.
Whatever these tyrants want it to be.
They want police to make unannounced visits for "safety" inspections
That’ll be fun.
I'm in Framingham too. If your friend contacts @Comm2A I will happily chip in for the lawsuit. Chief needs to be slapped down hard by the courts if he's really refusing to accept applications.
I have in the past had to set my LO in my town straight regarding what the law ACTUALLY states. They work for you, not the Governor or AG.
He’s pretty bummed. And a younger guy just getting started. Not wealthy. I don’t have any connections at comm2a but I gave him thier email. He is going to write a letter explaining the situation and see what happens.
Is there such a thing as a not corrupt police department?
It's just ONE with lots of spare parts to insure that you can keep it running.
How about 1.
They already did that in the late 1700s!
You don't need "connections" with Comm2A and an Email would be a lot faster to action than a letter. There is no office staff and no office for Comm2A, all 3 are volunteers with real jobs.
What you propose wouldn't be legal in MA and really isn't necessary. The form isn't complicated unless one has a record and then only an attorney can really help stage the application. For the rest of us, just follow the instructions and don't volunteer anything not asked for. If the PD isn't receptive, there is a process and that is contacting the chief, then selectmen/mayor if no response, further the state rep or state sen if still no response. One of these almost always get the PD working again. Being polite always helps, but sitting back defeated won't get any results.
It took me a second, but I think that was meant as a facetious description of graft, as seen in NYC.
Some definitely try harder than others.
Me too and I'm NOT in Framingham.
