WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING..

Not at all surprised.
Next muzzle loaders and pneumatic guns will be on the list.

...then knives, clubs, sharpened sticks, rocks, fists....

You will be made compliant.

Just like Jersey-you do not have the right to defend yourself...

How about this little gem:

SB-755 Firearms: prohibited persons – PASSED - “This bill would add to the list of misdemeanors, the conviction for which is subject to those prohibitions, misdemeanor offenses of violating the above provisions as well as threatening a peace officer, removing a weapon from the person of a peace officer, hazing, transferring a firearm without completing the transaction through a licensed firearms dealer, furnishing ammunition to a minor, possession of ammunition by a person prohibited from having a firearm, furnishing ammunition to a person prohibited from possessing ammunition, carrying ammunition onto school grounds, carrying a loaded or concealed weapon if the person has been previously convicted of a crime against a person or property, or of a narcotics or dangerous drug violation, or if the firearm is not registered, participation in any criminal street gang, and a public offense committed for the benefit of a criminal street gang.


So conviction of ANY crime prevents you from owning or carrying a gun

Before you know it they'll pass enough bills to make anybody and everybody criminals in one form or another.

that stage was passed long ago.

so CA now has:
banned all semi auto long guns
instituted a license to own/posses/borrow a gun (training cert)
greatly expanded the prohibited person list
license to sell ammunition and record keeping (how did I forget this one!)

on top of all the other crap they already had.

What was with the redefinition of shotgun? what got banned/regulated there?

Welcome to the future, aint it grand.

Funny, even before this I had never even entertained the thought of moving to CA but as the exodus from there to CO continues, I would not be surprised if CO became just another carbon copy.

No, carrying a concealed weapon (got a pocket knife?) after conviction of any crime gets you on The List.

Like others have said, the state is well on its way to doing just that.

Good thing i know how to make potato guns....now if i could make a semi or full auto one

Sometimes we even lead the way for California. As far as I know they still haven't legalized marijuana for recreational use and don't recognize same sex marriage.

Uh, you are a bit behind on news ...
