I suppose Montville citizens would have to use their guns to bludgeon their attackers instead of shooting them.

I guess the Montville, Connecticut police department can't ever use their firearms either?

The ensuing lawsuits from victim's families will bankrupt both the town and it's officials I'm sure...
Looks like they didn't think about that...

You could ram your holstered hip into them over and over until they stop attacking you.

There would likely be an exception for a justified shooting. In my state, with certain exceptions you cannot fire a gun within the boundaries of a municipality. Nonetheless, justified self defense still reigns supreme. This to me shows the problem of letting municipalities make gun laws.
