Hi. Newbie from Mass, but no longer there.
The new USC regarding everything related to firearms, as per Hoo.
This new law trumps all states' laws, is valid 24/7 in all 50 states+DC, and is permanent, cannot be revoked, repealed, voted upon, denied, etc etc etc.
Section 999.
1. All firearms are legal.
a) Paragraph 1 (one) shall not apply to nuclear weapons shaped in the form of a firearm.
2. All legal citizens of the USA may possess, openly or concealed, any firearm.
3. Paragraphs 1 (one) and 2 (two) shall apply in all 50 states and the Disctrict of Columbia.
4. The provisions of Section 999, as listed above, shall mean that if you or another innocent human being is threatened, you may use a firearm to deter said threat in whatever manner is sensical. I.E., if someone approaches you and demands your money/jewelry et al, and you pull out a firearm to deter said threat, and the aggressor does not back down, you may deter said aggressor by discharging firearm at aggressor, mindful of the three basic firearm safety rules. This is defined as lawful self-defense.
The end.
Make it so.
