Most Anti-Gun, Anti- Citizens Rights States
Yes, gun makers are leaving the blue states
and all the crazy laws and taxes. Red states are inviting them in. All that
loss of revenue to the blue states is going to really hurt.
In a statement released Tuesday night, PTR Industries said it is
leaving Connecticut after the passage of Bill 1160 on April 4 due to its new
harsh gun restrictions. Other gun
manufacturers have made similar announcements in recent months.
Arms
manufacturers in at least two states with strict new gun laws are making good
on their promise to move their operations -- along with thousands of jobs and
millions in tax revenues -- to locales they deem friendlier to the
industry.
In
Connecticut, where venerable gunmakers like Colt and Sturm, Ruger & Co.
have been joined in the last decade or so by upstarts like Stag Arms and PTR,
reform of gun laws in the wake of the Sandy Hook school shootings has left the
industry feeling unwelcome. Bristol-based high-end rifle manufacturer PTR
Industries announced this month via Facebook that it would be taking its 40
jobs and $50,000 weekly payroll to an unspecified new state, widely believed to
be Texas.
HiV2
Arms announced they are leaving Colorado and several Democratic lawmakers were
ousted from office by way of citizen recalls after they voted to restrict gun
rights.
Ironically,
states and cities with the strictest gun control, like Chicago and Washington
DC, usually have high crime rates.
In an unscientific
analysis by the Poor Man Survival researchers, we’ve compiled a list of the least citizen friendly states
(cost of living, high taxes, anti-gun laws, intrusive laws, etc.). They are:
NJ, MA, CT, MD,
NJ, NY, IL, and CA and MI*
Your rights are
more respected in AZ, AK and VT
As always, we recommend citizens fight back with
their feet or wallet. The less
tax revenues unfriendly states take in, the higher the odds are they will not
be able to support and enforce their socialist laws.
*MI makes it expensive
and difficult to obtain CCW permits nor do they recognize one issued from other
states (perhaps they use a different FBI) and it has outlawed the use of
non-lethal self defense tools such as Mace and stun guns. It also ranks negatively because of its high
cost of living. It has the 2nd
highest cost of auto insurance in the nation and is among the most expensive in
terms of homeowner water rates and property taxes.
