Foolish. It will drive a black market.

Have similar ID checks for Voting in elections.

There are not enough horses in all of Texas to drag me back to that God-forsaken crap hole.

What about “dem po’ folks” that are too poor or can’t get “into town” to get an I.D.? They’ll be disenfranchised! This is racism. Where the hell is Eric the Holder?! These people’s Second Amendment rights are being violated. He needs to sue the hell out of the California Nazicrats.

[Antihero101607]

Do the terms “comprehensive” and “common-sense” generate instant red flags with anybody else these days, or is it just me?

[andyk]

He said it ought not be so: "The ammunition is the fuel that feeds the violence. The gun itself, the hand gun or long gun or the high-powered weapon is the delivery device. The gas, the fuel, is the ammunition, and no one knows who buys it."

I'd say no-fault divorce, an intentional diminishment of the whole idea of shame, classism, the welfare state, and a few other things are the fuel that feeds the violence.

[ThunderSleeps]

More laws restricting law abiding citizens. And they think criminals will obey them? Why? This is foolishness. Complete idiocy. It will not impact criminals in the least.

[PDGearhead]

“Anyone can walk into any gun store, a bait and tackle store, and purchase all the ammunition they want to, no questions asked.” ...... I thought there was an age restriction i.e. 18 yrs or older.

Anyone who lived in California back in the 60’s and 70’s knows that many people moved there from other states to escape what they saw as stodgy, oppressive Nanny State laws.

California was then the wide open state where freedom from government control and domination was a big attraction.

Now California has turned into one of the most oppresive, Big Government, Nanny States in the union.

[Gay State Conservative]

While they're at it they should enact “comprehensive” ID checks when registering to vote *and* at the polling place.

[Washi]

I need to set up an ammo shop on the border in Nevada.

[plainshame]

Can Ca.please fall into the ocean and vanish!

[Lazamataz]

But, of course, this will not be enough.

They will need to enact:

1. Storage requirements. A gun safe must be purchased that has a minimum of 3 inch tempered steel walls.
2. Ammo taxes of 200% of the price of the ammunition must be levied, to give to programs that preach that guns are evil.
3. Transportation of any firearm, to the range, for conceal carry, for repair -- for any reason -- must be done by application, 3 to 7 months prior to the proposed transportation. Environmental Impact Statements must be filed, and approved by, the EPA in Washington DC. If granted, the permit to transport (with all accompanying information) must be filed with each law enforcement agency through which territory the firearm will be passing through, at the city, state, and federal level.
4. Biometric firearms are now required. Three successful fingerprint swipes in a row, with a subsequent retinal scan, followed by a password, must be entered into any firearm before it can be activated.
5. No bullets may be made out lead, because it pollutes the environment; nor any other metal, because it defeats ballistic vests. Wood may not be used, either, due to the concerns of preserving woodstands. Plastic causes pollution on a global scale. Cotton is not allowed, due to racial overtones. Tissue paper bullets may be considered, but only after a 3-panel commission meets and approves the concept.
6. No firearm may be possessed by any person who has been charged with, or convicted of, any crime whatsoever -- including traffic and parking tickets. If we cannot trust you with a car, what makes you think we can trust you with a GUN?

Obviously, this is only a common-sense start. Many more regulations will be forthcoming.

[OldPossum]

I couldn’t help but notice the concern about no one knowing who buys ammunition. Well, we can’t have that; it’s important that the “authorities” know who’s doing what. Nothing should escape their purview, nothing.

What a bunch of control freaks!

[Paladin2]

CA has ammo on the shelves?

[struggle]

All you have to do is the same thing as fireworks, guns, cigarettes - drive to Nevada or Arizona, buy what you want, and bring it back home.

[BenLurkin]

"Anyone can walk into any gun store, a bait and tackle store, and purchase all the ammunition they want to, no questions asked."

Yes. It's call Liberty.

[Mastador1]

Exactly! You will see garage reloaders supplying the illegal gun owners and criminals. it will be as effective as the excessive cigarette taxes on the east coast, and by effective I mean driving even more illegal trade.

[Amendment10]

But why don't California Democrats first establish background checks for swimming pool and hot tub owners since such things are evidently more lethal to kids than guns are?

FR: Swimming Pools Six Times as Deadly for Kids as Guns

[Beagle8U]

The CA lead ammo ban was just the first step in their goal to make ammo and guns illegal. They won’t stop as long as the idiots keep electing them.

I have a feeling the Colorado liberals are going to be taught a lesson in Nov, but it will take a lot more for CA voters to push back.

[barefoot_hiker]

Come on, quite messing around, Democrats. It’s finally time to make it illegal to use a gun when committing a rape, robbery or murder. What are you waiting for? You have the votes to pass such a ground-breaking measure.
