How is Massachusetts Like Jolly Old England?

Aside from the miserable wet winters, the home of John "They Just Didn't Get My Mixed Messages" Kerry and Teddy "Hop in the Car; I'll Drive!" Kennedy will put your butt in jail for defending yourself with a firearm:
A would-be robber became a victim of his own crime last week after he was shot in the stomach by a Brighton man he was trying to rob, police said.

Police arrested Sean E. Roisten, 29, of 833 Jette Court, and charged him with unlawful possession of a firearm and assault and battery with a deadly weapon on a robber who was holding Roisten's wife at gunpoint.
I have a good friend, an IPSC shooter, who swears Messychewshit is a great place to live. I'm thinking we sell it to England for maybe $185 and some tea and call it a wash! Still, this is one of those stories that bears watching.
