Well...I'm guessing the Liberals would still find something to complain / cry about...!!!Maybe they should stop selling firearms to California period. Not even law enforcement agencies. Let them use Phoenix arms hp22a since it is California legal and manufactured in California.
It's their job.Well...I'm guessing the Liberals would still find something to complain / cry about...!!!
What "misuse"? The percentage of crimes committed with "black guns" is miniscule enough to be statistically insignificant. It's just their unfounded complaint du jour. In the 70's it was handguns. The problem is not the tool, and it never has been. It's the individuals wielding the tools. And those are the people that the left has deified. They actually admire criminals (see the monuments to drug addicts and thugs like George Floyd). Liberalism is a mental illness. Change my mind.No matter what we think, this leftist machine gains ground by the dark images of black guns feeding into the perception of the grabbers. Until the misuse of said weapons stops and we fix the judicial system (takes money instead of spending it on Starbucks and Roundabouts) I’m afraid that it’s even a bigger hill to climb than one party over the other. Sad indeed.
Try not to miss the narrative here… most of us on here know it is a people problem. Not just guns either. And again you are right as I was around when GCA of 68 and the infamous Saturday night special fiasco. Nothing different to see here folks, as “the misuse” comes from anything the press and grabbers want it to be.What "misuse"?

Like you are ever going to get California Asian voters to _not_ vote for the party of "more education spending." Yeah right.Let Newsome do it. Might be the best chance ever for us to get that state back.
Outside of the urban areas, illegals and homeless, there are a LOT of gun owners in the state.

Cali is how it is, because the residents _want_ it that way.
You are correct. Jim.Wasn't it Koreans who used their rifles to fend off rioters from destroying their property during the Rodney King riots?
I think Charles M. has been doing far too much Blow, for far too long of a time."...And this war won’t be only about the subjugation of Black people but also about the subjugation of all who challenge the white racist patriarchy."

I see too many uneasy parallels between what was happening nearly 200 years ago and what is happening now over abortion.www.nytimes.com
I called Gavin Newsom an ******* on Facebook, I can probably call him when here, too. Oh, wait, I just did.The State of California has problems that are usually only seen in third-world countries such as rampant disease outbreak due to human waste on the streets.
A significant percentage of this Nation's homeless population is in California.
People are leaving this State in droves, lost a seat in the US House of Representatives for the first time ever.
Crime is not only rampant, but unchecked by policies of Soros-funded prosecutors.
The Police have been vilified and de-funded.
This (words without profanity... hard to find) Governor of this state views surviving a recall as a mandate to be a dictator.
The statement below shows he is either obtuse or lying on putting women in harm's way (Texas Law does not consider a procedure to save the mother's life the same as the abortion procedures in their bill.)
This buffoon is also intentionally taking the term Swiss Army Knife out of context. The AR platform is highly versatile and gives you many options, like a Swiss Army Knife. Leftist anti-2A types don't care and push the lie. Kenosha, Duke Lacrosse, list is too long.
(Edit: US District Judge Roger Benitez used the Swiss Army Knife comparison to the AR, "Home defense and homeland defense" were also words he used in describing the AR platform.)
"But if states can now shield their laws from review by the federal courts that compare assault weapons to Swiss Army knives, then California will use that authority to protect people’s lives, where Texas used it to put women in harm’s way."
He said he has already directed his staff to work with the legislature and the attorney general to craft a bill that would allow private citizens to sue those who manufacture, distribute or sell an assault weapon or ghost gun kit.
Laws be-damned! Plus, it really looks like Ice Cream is being compared to Tuesday here. Nobody is suing anybody in the Texas bill. Oh well, who needs logic when you're a leftist-anti 2A dictator in a state that resembles a third-world country.
Gavin Newsom says he'll use Texas abortion law as model for gun-control measure
In responding to the U.S. Supreme Court decision allowing the Texas abortion ban to stay in place, California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Saturday said he plans to propose a gun control law that would be modeled on the Texas one.www.foxnews.com
Follow me now:
Abortion- not in the Constitution. States can regulate, or not.
Right to arms- actually in the Constitution. Any state law must comply with the Constitution.
Simple as that.
OK- there's a little to unpack here. Once again, the key is understanding federalism.I agree with what you are saying, but...
The Supreme Court has ruled, as I understand it, that the 2A is NOT unlimited. States can impose "reasonable" restrictions. Ergo, California can push the "reasonable" limit as far as they can. Gov Newsom isn't saying "no guns," just allowing citizens to sue otehrs over firearms limitations. No violation of 2A here as SCOTUS has allowed for "reasonable" restrictions.
The Texas law has opened the door for every fringe element to find a backdoor around limitations.
I should also remind the good readers that the 9th Amendment does allow for the existence of rights not specified to exist, upon which privacy and abortion may(?) build. Under the 9th just because it isn't specifically named doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Our founders were wise that way.
This Texas law has got to go. It undermines the idea of standing to a level that is horrific. If allowed to remain, it will set a precedent for all sorts of stupid!
