Chaingun,
You're right. I forgot about all the NRA members
out here - duoh! We could indeed generate a
lot of pressure, but I agree it will make it to
Davis' desk anyway. He's considered a "moderate"
Democrat, but will be under tremendous pressure
from the liberal faction and the media to sign
the bill. I think he will - "for the children".
Other states have gun-owner licensing, although
none impose as many requirements as AB35. I don't
know if court challenges have ever been mounted in
those states, but obviously, the schemes are still
in place. I doubt the USSC would get involved and the
CASC will be of no help either. Agree with Wallew -
we are SCREWED!
Gary H,
I'm with you. I've been buying stuff I think I
might want in the near future. Long term, the
only real solution is to give up shooting and collecting
as a hobby or leave the state.
Don "pistol-packing" Perata (or one of his ilk)
has stated publicly that we (gun ethusiasts) are
basically not wanted here. It sucks, because I love
San Diego and all my family is in southern CA (which
is the reason I'm here in the first place).
