26 states are suing San Francisco over an ordinance on home gun storage

Here you go, this is right in line with your dreams of gun locks being mandatory accessories to every gun sale.

San Francisco, major beneficiary of the pro-sodomy, bedroom-privacy rulings, now says that what a person does with her firearm in the privacy of her home is the city’s business.

It’s California law now that a gun needs to be locked up if a child is present in the home. SF went one step further, that it needs to be locked up even if no children are present. My mother-in-law in SF had a gun in her closet, unlocked and loaded, while babysitting my kids a few decades ago. That would get her to jail nowadays. I think a lot of people ignore laws like this and hope not to be caught, because laws like this ignore the peoples’ needs.

"because laws like this ~~ignore~~ trample upon the peoples’ ~~needs~~ Rights."

Just blame it on the auto-correct, eh?

“maybe the States’ AG, are trying to forestall, any of their own
“whacko / Moron” State legislatures from doing same.”

That is not an excuse.

#21: Balding Eagle. I think you lost some of your feathers, old bird. I never said that the weapon had to be “locked” in the home, only that a gunlock be sold with it in case the owner wanted to use it.

Nobody can make you lock your weapon and this California Marxist crap is just that, crap. I’ve been in a situation where my gunlocked weapon could not be unlocked because I couldn’t use my injured hand and because I couldn’t find the key. I decided to club my assailant but the police got him first, arrested him, and then a local asshole magistrate let him off on OR (and he came back to stay the night at the house next to me - no court warning).

He had threated to kill me and my family. The magistrate was a total prick and I ran into him in court before and even people in the dockets next to me questioned his sanity.

A few local cops didn’t like the perp and slipped me enough information for me to track him down and have him served with a lawsuit for injuries. It was enough to chase him out of the country.

The next shithead who threatened to kill me got 6 months in jail after I worked with a local police officer and the FBI to track the little shit down and have him dumped over a county line where he had already served time. They promptly extradited him to Pennsylvania to serve out another outstanding warrant/time.

He was lucky as my daughter failed to tell me in time that she saw him in DC and (with a very big friend), put their own fear of god into the jerk. My son was in the Army at that time and would have gone medieval on this guy’s ass had he been home, and I would have introduced him to a baseball bat had I been able to find him.

In the end, we didn’t have to shoot him though I kept a loaded weapon at the ready all the time, but without the gunlock on it (by then my daughter could shoot like a champ and my son was in the process of becoming a “sharpshooter” as some Fedayeen found out the hard way in Iraq.

There is nothing wrong with having a gun around the house. What is important is how it is kept out the wrong hands, esp. those of young and curious children and local burglars.

Balding Eagle: Once you get over your inanity re gunlocks, then we can have a rational discussion on gun safety. Meanwhile, don’t shoot yourself in the foot or balls.

"maybe"

I think you lost some of your feathers, old bird. I never said that the weapon had to be “locked” in the home, only that a gunlock be sold with it in case the owner wanted to use it.

I may be going bald, but I still have a lot more 'feathers' than you.

I'm not the one who claimed that mandating gunlocks be sold with every gun would somehow take the wind out of the anti-gunners efforts of depriving us of our guns.

That was you.

As far as my ' inanity', I'll just quote a very wise man: "Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice."

The second part of that same quote describes your position "And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue".

PS, your stories have the ring of ‘In fact, some of my best friends are black’.

Brown is a transplanted Texan.....

Seems like all the crazies in California originally hail from somewhere else.....

That’s what I thought

These sorts of laws are a direct attack on law-abiding citizens by the state of California. Sounds like their legislature needs a little chin music.

@ Monorprise: You're aware that there's been an attack by the state of California on the egg industry in other states, increasing the price of eggs for citizens of other states?

California needs to butt out of everyone else's business. If they can be taught that lesson by other states' AGs, then it's a beautiful thing.

We need to start treating California and its products like Chinese products, since the toxicity is very much the same.

...California law demands all suppliers in any state conform to the new stupid, ridiculous specifications for operating chicken egg farms.
*******************************
Simple solution. All egg producers in other States just stop supplying eggs to CA. Residents would rise up in short order to demand that stupid law be rescinded.

How does California attack the egg industry of every other state in California?

If California doesn’t want eggs sold in California then they don’t have to have eggs sold in California. The only right they gave up under the Federal Constitutions is the right to discriminate against our products over their own.

California has every right to be stupid and oppressive to their own people, just not our people in our states.

The new year is expected to bring rising chicken egg prices across the U.S. as California starts requiring farmers to house hens in cages with enough space to move around and stretch their wings. The new standard backed by animal rights advocates has drawn ire nationwide because farmers in Iowa, Ohio and other states who sell eggs in California have to abide by the same requirements. To comply, farmers have to put fewer hens into each cage or invest in revamped henhouses, passing along the expense to consumers shopping at grocery stores. California is the nation's largest consumer of eggs...

Get ready to shell out more money for eggs. Some Northwest stores are warning of higher egg prices as new regulations on hen houses take effect in California next month. California will now require egg producers to give their hens room to spread their wings -- literally. The law applies to all eggs sold in that state. That means egg producers nationwide are scrambling to make sure their cages comply. Jim Hermes is a poultry specialist for the Oregon State University Extension Service. He said giving the hens more room increases their appetites. "If you increase the amount of feed...

If eggs are a staple in your family’s diet and you’d like to keep it that way, now would be a good time to get a few laying hens. Next month, beginning January 1, 2015, the chicken-and-egg production in the United States is in for a big shock. That’s when California’s new regulations on egg-laying hens goes into effect. And the effects of those regs on eggs will be felt nationally, even globally. The incredible, edible, prolate spheroid-shaped poultry product, which has long been one of the most affordable sources of high-quality protein, is certain to become significantly more expensive.In...

Time for a new Boston Egg Party. See California stuff in your store, "accidentally" drop & break it.

Whoopsie! Maybe they'll get the message a few hundred million later...

Aren’t the liberals the ones that were always yelling that the government needs to get out of our bedrooms.

California may be a huge market but no non-Californian farmer is required to comply, and the rest of us can benefit from the lower prices of those who do not comply.

“Time for a new Boston Egg Party. See California stuff in your store, “accidentally” drop & break it.
Whoopsie! Maybe they’ll get the message a few hundred million later...”

That is call thief, and the local non-California store owner will unjustly suffer the consequences.

Just boycott as many California products as possible, eventually the cost of production in California will put them at a price disadvantage anyway driving out business. We know this will happen because its already happening to California business its been happening for a decade or more now.

Fewer and fewer middle class business and families can afford to live and work there in in what was once one of the greatest single breadbaskets in the U.S.

Nothing happened to the land that their state government didn’t do.

there.
