My cousin, a California native who still lives there, sent me these new proposed and recently enacted laws for the state. Don't they make you want to pick-up and move to the state because you will be so safe with all of the these type of laws so everyone can walk around freely with $100 bills sticking out of each pocket!

Proposed Laws:

AB 156- (McCarty) Ammunition Regulation. Requires background checks for ammunition purchasers, licenses to sell ammunition, and collection of sale information. Restrictions on ammunition purchases, creates a DOJ database of ammunition owners. Bans internet / out of state ammunition purchase.

AB 857- (Cooper) Ghost Gun Registration. Requires a person to get a serial number from DOJ before making or assembling a gun. Retroactively requires serial numbers to be placed on (some or numbers of) firearms dating back to 1899.

AB 1135- (Levine, Ting) Bullet Buttons. Redefines assault weapons to encompass specified guns capable of accepting any type of detachable magazine. Bans common and constitutionally protected firearms that have magazine locking devices. (Update 7/8/16: Signed by governor.)

AB 1511- (Santiago) Gun Lending. Limits infrequent lending of guns to specified family members. Formerly dealt with energy conservation, but now criminalizes loaning of firearms between personally known, law-abiding adults, including sportsmen and women. (Update 7/8/16: Signed by governor.)

AB 1664- (Levine-D) Firearms: Assault Weapons. This bill would define "detachable magazine" to mean an ammunition feeding device that can be removed readily from the firearm without disassembly of the firearm action, including an ammunition feeding device that can be removed readily from the firearm with the use of a tool.

AB 1673- (Gipson-D) Firearms: Unfinished Frame or Receiver. This bill would expand the definition of "firearm" for other purposes to include an unfinished frame or receiver that can be readily converted to the functional condition of a finished frame or receiver. (Update 7/8/16: Vetoed by governor.)

AB 1674- (Santiago-D) Firearms: Waiting Period. This bill would make the current 30-day prohibition on handguns applicable to all types of firearms. (Update 7/8/16: Vetoed by governor.)

AB 1695- (Bonta-D) Firearms: Notice to Purchasers: False Reports of Stolen Firearms. This bill would make it a misdemeanor to report to a local law enforcement agency that a firearm has been lost or stolen, knowing that report to be false. (Update 7/8/16: Signed by governor.)

California is one of the prettiest places on the planet, minus the people. Too bad. I moved there in 1990 and actually enjoyed it. By the late 90s it was degrading so fast I felt trapped and broke. Finally got to the point that I left. Haven't looked back. When my travels take me through there, it usually takes all of about 24hours to remind me why I left.
 
Kali: Im not ""really"" promoting breaking (VERY stupid) laws but--if most LEs dont enforce it? the inmates in charge will never know whats going on? The wise ones who live there SHOULD do a friendly show of force to maybe-just maybe, show the idiots in charge they are sick of their freedoms being infringed upon. We did that here in Texas-and guess what? partly coming from that--we have open carry.

If the residents in Kali dont want to stand up and do something about stopping that insanity? all I can say is--tough noodles to them for not doing anything.
 
One of my sons moved to California as he is the owner of a coral importing firm. I wonder just where I failed as a father?

I once gave my son my .243 Sako Forrester and a Mossberg slug gun with which he took a beautiful 8 point whitetail. Those guns are in my safe here on the east coast rather than have the hassle of shipping them to the land of fruits, nuts and flakes. Problem is, NYS is slowly playing catch-up and soon, I'll have to remove all my guns from the New York State of Insanity.
 
Sounds like a whole lot of lemons and the nuts are making fruitcakes.

I would like to hear just how any of these laws will actually reduce gun crimes. If somebody in government there believes this I have a method to convert lead into 14k gold and they can have first dibbs on the idea for just 100 million.

...gun laws have nothing to do with crime or safety...they are punishment inflicted on political rivals...no more...no less...
 
Beautiful state. I think they are the largest producer of produce in the nation. That's something to be proud off. But me live there heck to the no!!! My biggest concern is how far away are we from becoming like them? I mean with the upcoming elections.
 
The late Chicago Times syndicated columnist Mike Royko said it best:

"We should make California into it's own country. Put up a big wall around it and put psychiatrists at the gates. We could still have trade with them, we could buy their wine and sell them strait jackets."
