Massachusetts is a VERY sad story. Google up their state constitution. You'll find that Massachusetts, the seat of the American Revolution, does NOT recognize an individual RKBA in its state constitution. In MA, the RKBA is only for the defense of the state.
I'm not certain, but I believe MA may be the only one of the original thirteen colonies to NOT recognize an individual RKBA. Not that it matters. Connecticut's constitution guarantees a RKBA ... but the nanny state won't let you do it without a permit.
