(Groton, CT) - The Connecticut Citizens Defense League offers the following statement pertaining to the armed robbery of a Post Office in West Haven, CT earlier today.
Statement from CCDL President Scott Wilson:
"This was a brazen act by individuals who obviously had no fear of being met with any opposition from the people who work in or patronize an environment where firearms are banned by federal law. Fortunately no one was hurt in this instance, but the very fact that this happened underscores the vulnerability that every postal employee and customer faces on a daily basis.

The CCDL President Also Stated:
"If criminals will rob this post office in such a coordinated fashion, then why wouldn't they go on and rob others in a similar manner? This highlights the very real fact that criminals do not follow laws or honor so-called "gun free zones", and lawmakers should re-think their views. What happened today is a real life consequence of their decision-making".
