Glock & Remington File Suit

Healey's Powergrab Explained With Sports Cars
With Attorney General Healey in power your vote as a resident of Massachusetts no longer matters.
We are still hearing from people who don’t grasp what AG Healey did and why it is so egregious. It can be easily explained using cars.
Let’s use sports cars
Let’s say that the federal government defined any sports car with a V8, mag wheels and ground effects “assault cars” and made them illegal to own or possess.
Now, let’s say that the state of MA adopted the same law.
For 20 years nobody could own a sports car configured this way. You could have them with a V6 and regular wheels, but the V8, etc. would get you arrested.
