Expanded California Assault Weapon Ban Leaves Thousands Of Gun Owners In Limbo « CBS San Francisco


There are thousands if not tens of thousands of legally owned ARs in California right now. Beginning January 1st 2018 an AR with a bullet button is either going to have to be modified or registered with the state to remain legal. The problem is you can’t even register an AR right now.
“They don’t know how to implement these laws,” said Craig Deluz with the Firearms Policy Coalition, a group that lobbies for gun owner rights in California.He says the new law requires the Department of Justice to come up with new regulations before it can open up an electronic registration system. But so far the agency has failed to do that. That’s leaving law abiding gun owners who want to register but can’t in a Catch 22.

And this idiotic change in law impedes criminals how? you cannot punish a criminal who fails to register a firearm he possess, that was set forth in a 1968 supreme court case which is still good case law

Also are WE just supposed to not notice that this is an example of government failing to work?

Trump is far from the only reason government is increasingly a joke.

Poor quality people, doing bad work.

bannerrhoid politicians whose motivations are dishonest
 
I still don't get how states can do such bans since the second amendment applies to states.

Was only what 6 months ago that I caught Warren AKA Pocahontas "Ya'll have no idea just how corrupt this place is!(paraphrase).

I was trying to be optimistic.

well its unsettled area of law because for 200 years and obviously since the CRUIKSHANK decision about 140 years ago, the second amendment and other parts of the BOR were held not to apply to state action though of course that changed for some parts with incorporation after passage of the post-civil war amendments. So lots of judges-especially anti gun ones, pretend that the second amendment's prohibitions really don't apply to the states or that anything short of a complete ban on all guns by a STATE government, is not an "infringement"

hopefully, Trump appointees to the federal circuit courts will start vaporizing such idiocy

its clear those laws do violate the McDonald ruling.

It's probably intentional. If you have to register your AR but there is no mechanism to register it then, by default, you are guilty of not registering. I know it sounds crazy but it's CA and they're known for crazy. They're the state that prohibits open carry but is also "may issue" for concealed carry which, effectively, bans the carry of handguns for self defense.

Ideally, supreme court rulings will bitch slap the bannerrhoid culture that infects the California legislature.

See...gun control is all about eventual mandatory registrations, despite all claims to the contrary.

Historically, what usually follows registration of weapons? (hint hint...their eventual seizure on some public safety pretext.) :ssst:

I am waiting for the biggest supporter of California idiocy to defend it

Sounds unconstitutional to me. But, i guess someone will have to run it up the judicial food chain to establish that.
 
Bigger than Pelosi?

The biggest supporter on this board. Last I checked, Pelosi doesn't post here-at least not open and notoriously
 
You said the biggest and did not mention here, so I wet to the obvious choice...:cool:

you got wet over pelosi? :mrgreen: fair enough

Wouldn't anyone with blood still flowing through their veins? All those fine wrinkles, the mildly desiccated body.

To be fair, I did make a mistake. When I thought of Pelosi it was based on the following quote: "We have federal regulations and state laws that prohibit hunting ducks with more than three rounds. And yet it's legal to hunt humans with 15-round, 30-round, even 150-round magazines." and that belongs to Dianne.

Feinswine always had a hard on for gun owners but after Harvey Milk and George Moscone got wasted (with a city issued police handgun btw) she went off the deep end. She is incapable of rational thought and has become mastered by her own mythology.
