On April 19, a bill that could literally ban all Federal Firearm License holders (FFLs) from doing business in the state of California goes before the State Assembly Committee on Privacy and Consumer Protection.
The bill–Assembly Bill 2459–is sponsored by Assembly Member Kevin McCarty (D-Sacramento). If passed, it would shackle FFLs with four new requirements, the totality of which could simply force gun stores to close their doors.
The NRA-ILA reported the four proposed requirements:
A prohibition on licensee business premises being on a residential property.
A clear statement that localities may impose more restrictive requirements on licensees than those imposed by state law.
A requirement that licensees maintain full color video surveillance that is of sufficient quality to provide for facial recognition and records all firearm transactions on the premises, all locations where firearms and ammunition are stored, the immediate exterior of the licensed premises, and all parking facilities owned by the licensee. The video equipment would be required to run during all business hours and be set to begin recording when motion is detected at all other times. The licensee would have to certify to having compliant video equipment at least yearly and make any needed repairs to the equipment within 15 days of any damage. The footage would need to be stored on the premises for at least five years, but that could be extended if the footage may be part of a law enforcement investigation. Licensees would also be required to post a prominent sign indicating that customers are being recorded.
All licensees would be required to have a liability policy of a minimum of $1M per incident to cover liability arising from “theft, sale, lease or transfer or offering for sale, lease or transfer of a firearm or ammunition, or any other operations of

They know the Ninth Circuit will rubberstamp it, and they’re assuming that by the time it reaches the USSC, a new majority of Liberals will gladly declare the 2nd Amendment Null & Void.
Well that would certainly be a bonus for dealers in adjacent states. Like the Illinois restrictions generate big sales just across the Indiana line.
Just another reason not to live in California.
Wouldn't it be easier to just cede California to Mexico?
That’s a HUGE risk if Hillary wins, the Dems take the Senate, and SCOTUS is packed with liberals for decades to come. All of which are well within possibility.
I can see the sign now:
WELCOME TO CALIFORNIA DRUG DEALERS, PEDOPHILES, THIEVES, THUGS, AND RAPISTS.
THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND!
If I was offered a job that paid ten times as much, for one-tenth the work, and it was situated in Kalifornistan, I would turn the offer down.
Another sign:
CALIFORNIA WELCOMES ALL MASS KILLERS. THIS WHOLE STATE IS A GUN FREE ZONE.
“SHOOT ‘EM UP!”
That’s why null and void left California...
Guarentee you the next headline will read “California bans all guns, ammunition, and accessories.”
“THIS LAND WAS YOUR LAND!”
The 9th Circus will rule them to be “reasonable restrictions” even if they outright ban guns in the state.
what Illinois restrictions on gun dealers ?
They’ve got about an 8 year window before 3D printer technology makes all of this crap null and void...
In the not too distant future, software and a 3D printer will be making our firearms and ammunition.
wouldn’t it be nice if we could resurrect the US Constitution?
there’s an entire generation now which has no real idea what the word “liberty” is all about...
Another state that deserves what they voted for. Some day it will just slide off into the Pacific.

Anyone remember when California tried to ban handguns back in 1982 with Prop 15?
https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_15,_Handgun_Registration_Initiative_%281982%29
It was guaranteed to pass!
Handgun Control Inc. (HCI now the Brady Center) was already popping Champagne corks for the coming victory!
CBS even had an hour special the night before in an attempt to get out the anti-gun vote!
It went down in a humiliating defeat as the citizens of California rejected it.
Since that day, the politicians of Cali have been trying to find ways around the will of the voters one nibble at a time.
