In a week full of bill signings, Governor Gavin Newsom approved several dozen that relate to guns, some of which focused on red flag laws. A red flag law gives courts the authority to temporarily take someone’s firearms if people near them — like immediate family, employers, roommates — have reason to believe that person is dangerous to themselves or others.
Newsom signed one bill which extends that red flag law to people who commit or threaten hate-based violence based on extremist ideology. Bill sponsor and Democratic Assembly member Rick Chavez Zbur told the Senate Committee on Public Safety back in June that the rising rate of hate crimes in California makes the expansion necessary.
“California courts must stay alert to the importance of considering threats of hate-based violence and threats of political violence when temporarily restricting access to guns, thereby preventing needless deaths and potentially saving innocent lives,” he said.
Newsom also signed another bill which extends red flag restrictions to people who recklessly brandish a gun or have a history of stalking or showing cruelty to animals.
Several of the newly signed bills also relate to school shootings. A couple require schools to have an active shooter safety plan in place and install interior locks. Schools will also have to provide safety information like maps with exits and first aid kit locations over an app or online, thanks to another bill Newsom approved.
Amping up the base right before voting starts.
Newsom is a skunk who is the biggest threat to the American People’s BILL OF RIGHTS. A real POS Nazi. It’s time to lock the bass turd up.
Time to red-flag pretty much all leftists, then.
Gavin (smoothing back his hair): “Lucky for me I’m covered by our California Health Plan that will help me get over this carpal tunnel from signing all those needed anti-gun documents.”
True story of Black Panther Huey P. Newton in the 60s. Newton was shot in the abdomen during a crossfire gunfight. Taken to the hospital, staff refused to work on him and had him sit in the hall , applying pressure, as a Panther rushed back to get Newton’s California Health System coverage card, without which the hospital could refuse service to anyone.
Each one deals with “shall not infringe” part ....
What a great way to seriously harass people. Don't like your neighbor, co worker or x? Just tell the cops you believe they're a danger...
Horizontal has a gun.
***showing cruelty to animals. ***
I foresee hunters in California catching hell from animal rights groups.
An azzho, far left politician just can’t have too much gun control. The hypocrite pig whines if four and above people are murdered but fights for the feminazis’ “Right” To murder thousands of infants every month. Wake up America. Newsom is the greatest threat to America’s freedom, liberty and Bill of Rights.
Newsom is just another far leftwing autocrat-wannabe
... go look at the once-great State of Californication and see just how screwed up he would make USA if he were ever to get his hands on power
So all the gangs of Cali are going to be disarmed? Yeah yeah....you can stop laughing.
Two-dozen bills to ignore.
I suppose people living near the state lines can go there to get large firearm magazines, ammo, and git their small propane bottles along with cheaper gasoline.
Wonder why the Indian Reservations don’t start selling this stuff. I would love to hear anti-gun politicians scream because “The Indians are selling guns to the Whites in California!”
LOL
Bloods and Crips will be brokenhearted. They’ll have to use chemical weapons on each other now.
“He has a Trump flag! Kill him!”
That would be fun to use against a Muslim.
“extends that red flag law to people who commit or threaten hate-based violence based on extremist ideology. “
Express the wrong thoughts and you lose your firearms. Leftists frequently assert that spoken words are literally violence.
