13. Typical response to civil disobedience from those in power.
And we have been hearing it since Gandhi. Think they could come up with something more original sometime.

MA laws do much more that prevent anonymous concealed carry. I kept my weapons at home, assembled, and secured. A handgun was loaded and accessible. Technically it was a felony. I did not care then, I do not care now. Self defense is a basic human right and I intend to be able to exercise it effectively if/when it is necessary.

In MA private ownership firearms for self defense has been a crime/act of civil disobedience dating back to the 1770s, so it should be a liberal value.
