California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday signed a law that will make the state the first to allow employers, co-workers and teachers to seek gun violence restraining orders against other people.
The bill was vetoed twice by former governor Jerry Brown, a Democrat, and goes beyond a measure that he signed allowing only law enforcement officers and immediate family members to ask judges to temporarily take away peoples’ guns when they are deemed a danger to themselves or others.
They were among 15 gun-related laws Newsom approved as the state strengthens what the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence calls the nation’s toughest restrictions.
“California has outperformed the rest of the nation, because of our gun safety laws, in reducing the gun murder rate substantially compared to the national reduction,” Newsom said as he signed the measures surrounded by state lawmakers. “No state does it as well or comprehensively as the state of California, and we still have a long way to go.”
Between 1993 and 2017, the latest available, there was a 62% decline in the gun murder rate in California, nearly double the 34% nationally, he said.

This is going to be a nightmare. Anyone with an ax to grind is going to be calling in the Gestapo.

Let’s report all of Newsome’s bodyguards, drivers, and police staff on the governors mansion property.
looking to find my EX’s address and rat her out.
If you care about the right to keep and bear arms, please, I beg you, MOVE OUT OF CALIFORNIA!
coworkers and teachers???? too much power over peers and one has to be real careful at those parent teacher conferences. Wonder if that includes school administrators?????
I have found that to be a wise and effective administrative policy.
This one will go to SCOTUS and be shot down.
Too overly broad, anyone can take a job where you work specifically to turn you in.
Do these idiots know how far, how accurately, and how deadly a compound bow can shoot a broad head?
I shoot both archery and firearms and can hold my own with either but I’ll hold a tighter group with a compound bow at 60 yards than shooting a handgun off hand at the same difference.
And one of those two choices does not make any noise.
Oh they’ll catch on to that soon enough.
These idiots are relentless.
my safes and my tools are already in Oregon. We will be out of cali with all of our assets by next summer.
I’ll be changing my DMV registrations and my DL over in Dec.
Screw Cali and their anti constitution anti citizen crap.
We are done with them.
Wouldn’t bet on that.
They still have Roberts in their pocket.
Okay, but is Oregon all that much better.
That place is run by Lefties also, isn’t it?
Washington too...
What? Block commissars aren’t allowed to turn in their neighbors? This loophole must be fixed!
Not good enough. Why can’t random people or people who work for Gun Control outfits complain and get a redflag report started?
Oregon’s gun laws are a bunch better. Basically they just enforce federal laws.
No restrictions on any of the modern sporting rifles or waiting periods like cali has. No BS about building 80% rifles or handguns. No limit on what I can buy or how often I can buy that type of weapon.
Property taxes are higher but no sales tax. Auto and home insurance will go down as well.
I can walk into a gun store in oregon, put my money on the counter, do the paperwork, wait about 30 minutes for NICS to come back and walk out the door with an AR.
They don’t track ammo sales and you can still have ammo delivered to your home there.
Pretty much night and day difference between Oregon and Cali.
As it applies to weapons, it seems so.
Thanks for the mention.
