Gun Control III

And I predict that Push’s next post in response to mine will be an indictment of me as a Satan-worshipper. Just you watch.

Heard the one about the dyslexic agnostic Satanist?

He worshipped Santa, but wasn’t sure about the existence of dogs.

California Republicans trying to undo law that made stealing a firearm a misdemeanor.

Proposition 47 was sold as a proposal to eliminate prison sentences for non-serious crimes. It reduced from a possible felony to always a misdemeanor the possession of narcotics and the theft of property valued under $950. No prison time. Probably a wrist-slap.

Surely it was botched drafting, but that means stealing a gun worth less than $950, which practically all are, is a misdemeanor. So is knowingly possessing or selling such a stolen firearm.

Good first step on a long road…

We’re talking 3 years until it even hits SCOTUS, and if it wins there… Whoa clusterfuck of federal legislation coming down the pike then.

It’s really irrelevant for non rostered/AWB states, imo.

NY Senator Who Pushed Gun Control, Now Pushing Machete Control

At least there’s consistency in his stance. I’d take that over restrictions based on meaningless cosmetic features or number of rounds fired per trigger pull. Give me a guy that wants to ban all possible weapons over a guy that wants to incrementally erode the right to self-ownership any day. Even the dense can tell what’s going on with the former.
