The new year brings scores of new laws reaching into the office, car and home, regulating the work and play of everyday Californians regardless of age.

Ban supporters argued that the weapons, capable of hitting hovering helicopters, could be used by terrorists. AB 50 by Assemblyman Paul Koretz (D-West Hollywood). Yes, terrorists are such sticklers for obeying laws. This idiot should have just passed a law banning terrorism.

.50-caliber rifles: Sale of the heavy, long-range weapons, used mostly by target shooters, is banned in California. Ban supporters argued that the weapons, capable of hitting hovering helicopters, could be used by terrorists. AB 50 by Assemblyman Paul Koretz (D-West Hollywood).
I believe a potato gun can hit a hovering helicopter if it is 50 feet off the ground. I can just see where this legislation is going to lead.

On the bright side, thanks to the
Alliance Defense Fund, the "Domestic Partners Rights and Responsibilities Act" (signed into law by Gray Davis) that was to take effect on January 1st has been stayed, due to a judge's ruling that it appears to violate Proposition 22 (limits marriage to one man and one woman).

Kalifornia has become a silly place with a bunch of silly lawmakers.

It is illegal to run a boat engine while someone hangs from the stern's swim ladder or platform. Starting in May 2005... Not that you don't have to use common sense about this, but the person who wrote this is obviously not a water skier.

"Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed 311 bills and signed 959 last year."
Well, I'd say that's actually pretty good, he vetoed one quarter of the bills in front of him.
Of course, he probably should have vetoed 90%, judging from the bills that passed, but I bet Gray wouldn't have vetoed any of them.

And at the end of 2005, they will say, "See, no hovering helicoters were hit this year with this rifle, so this law must be working." I can't wait.

Many black powder rifles are .50 caliber or slightly larger. Was the legislation crafted to just attack the 50 BMG or did it manage to emcompass black powder rifles via vague wording?
