Well, it could have been a lot worse. SB 374 was the worst of the bunch, and was vetoed. What Jerry Brown signed was bad enough, but I suspect turncoat Arnold would have signed more.

Anything that violates the Second Amendment is to much.

What about “shall not be infringed” do these people not understand?

Doesn’t matter whether they understand or not, they have an agenda. Their agenda is to do away with the constitution and interject their own rules

You’re preaching to the choir. But since I’m still living here for a while, I’ve got to deal with things as they are, not as they should be.

Yep. There are alternatives for hunting like Barnes X bullets, but not for all cartridges, and they are more expensive.

ok, so I assume that their motive in banning lead bullets is to make it more difficult to use guns (a run around of the second amendment, that, if people used parallel reasoning to get around rove v wade they would be screaming bloody murder), but what do they give publicly as their reason? surely they don’t admit to their motives?

It’s only a matter of time. CA will lose most of its 2A rights. Maybe just a few more election cycles.

“what do they give publicly as their reason?”

Phony environmentalism. Supposedly animals eat gutpiles with lead bullets and get poisoned. Lead bullets were banned for hunting in the California condor’s range for that reason years ago. This expands that to the whole state. Doesn’t effect use for other than hunting.

I’m glad he recognized that this bill affected historical guns , hunting weapons, and target weapons, because I sure didn’t.

The given reason is the same as taking the lead out of gasoline. Among other things I have heard that wild fowl were using lead shot in their gizzards and poisoning themselves, not good if we want to hunt and eat them.

I’d give California back to Mexico but then all those dirty liberals would spread out into the rest of the country.

Doesn’t the PRC have veto-proof majorities in both chambers?

If they were really concerned about the condor, otherwise known as a buzzard, they would have banned anti-freeze

This is a State totally controlled by Democrats.

Remember that when they run as pro-gun and they state they would never go after hunters, but only want to restrict those 'mean' assault weapons.

I took plenty drugs in the 70s

Never had a flashback nor crazy decision making

It was a lifestyle for 12 years when I was my only responsibility

Frankly...it was fun

But as business grew and responsibilities grew in conjunction....

And the lure of that most addictive of all drugs.....the elusive split tail....grew ever more all consuming

And subsequently 5 children later as a result of that obsession

Even moderate pot smoking was long gone

And so it goes....I do miss pot a hair....late at night with Wifey in bed watching Joan Rivers or something silly...it could be fun on occasion....with only 3 left at home now

But I do get your point ....no getting high since 83....don’t drink either

I did become my daddy...lol

Absolutely astounded that this nut job vetoed anything at all.

SB 374 would have moved me out of the state.
