I see no benefit in trying to preserve a union with these leftists. Let's each go our own ways and be done with it.
Are you kidding me? The 99.99% have to jump through hoops to insure an additional charge can be filed on the .01%? Why not punish the "bad guys who use a firearm" to the full extent or punish them in a manner that doesn't involve some additional form of "compliance" the rest?Antoninus said:good Lord.

Because, despite what they say, the purpose of all new gun laws is to harass and criminalize conservatives.B-1 83 said:Are you kidding me?

"See legal gun owners? We're doing this for your own good." Sound familiar?

Drop the "(unregistered)" and replace "bad guys" with "anyone" and you'd be correct...Antoninus said:good Lord. This statute is punitive, not prophylactic. No one in the California legislature expects a criminal to register his firearm.IslanderAg04 said:

I hope it does pass. Every lib out there deserves this.
Knowing the name of every law abiding gun owner and what they own accomplishes nothing as far as public safety.
If you are a conservative, move!

When I moved back to Cali in 99 I remember standing at the DMV to get my DL. The sign on the wall said in big letters, "Register your firearms blah blabeddy blah." Silently I told the state to **** right off. Guns since were stolen in a home burglary (true). State ****ed off then, they can **** off now.Antoninus said:good Lord.

Triggered much?
You think this is some ground breaking approach targeting criminals? A fine that they wont pay? There are already laws in place that do this. Don't be so naive.

So this is a $250/gun/year tax to keep your firearms off the registry.
It's a poll tax on the 2nd amendment, that becomes a defacto gun registry in its own regard.
That may work but the first thing that is dropped in criminal proceedings is the gun charge. Very few criminals get additional years for possessing an "illegal" gun.Antoninus said:good Lord.
