For the Times They are a-Changin'

Remember when the "gold standard" was "Vermont carry"?

After the Blue State folks have fouled their nests to the point where even they can't bear to live in them they fan out into unspoiled Red States. The problem is that they bring their half baked liberal ideas with them, like plague victims fleeing into healthy areas. And thus the Blue States become sewers and the Red States become purple.

We see a similar process here in Miami, AKA The Capital of Latin America.

VT consistently ranked as one of the safest states in the union.Nothing like screwing up a good thing but that's what progressive/socialists/communists do.

The so-called Republican governor of Vermont will sign the bills into law. They include a maximum magazine limit of 10 for rifles and 15 for handguns. Sorry Ethan Allen, your descendants have betrayed your cause.

Here are Gov. Scott's Weasel Words:

"Vermont is currently one of the healthiest and safest states in America. However, as tragedies in Florida, Las Vegas, Newtown and elsewhere—as well as the averted plot to shoot up Fair Haven High School—have demonstrated, no state is immune to the risk of extreme violence.

“As Governor, I have a moral and legal obligation and responsibility to provide for the safety of our citizens. If we are at a point when our kids are afraid to go to school and parents are afraid to put their kids on a bus, who are we?

“That’s why I put forward an action plan last month with steps to better ensure the safety and well-being of all Vermonters. My proposals included enhancing school safety, identifying and addressing root causes of violence and developing avenues for open conversations about gun safety, while preserving our Constitutional rights.

“I thank the Legislature for responding to my request to act, moving forward on bills that will help keep guns out of the hands of those who shouldn’t have them.

“As I’ve said, I strongly support the second amendment and all Constitutional rights. I support S.55, S.221 and H.422 because I believe these bills uphold these rights, while taking reasonable steps to reduce the risk of violence."
