California governor criticizes ‘wide open’ Nevada, Arizona.

LE BOURGET, France — Gov. Jerry Brown said Saturday that “wide open” gun laws in Nevada and Arizona are a “gigantic back door through which any terrorist can walk,” while he was noncommittal on efforts to strengthen gun control measures in California.

Brown, arriving in France for climate talks after the mass shooting in San Bernardino last week, called the shooting a terrorist attack.

The guns used were purchased legally in California before being modified, authorities have said.

Asked if stricter gun control laws were warranted, as some activists have argued, the fourth-term Democrat replied, “California has some of the toughest gun control laws of any state. And Nevada and Arizona are wide open, so that’s a gigantic back door through which any terrorist can walk.”

“It’s an important topic, this is an important forumwant to make sure I did that,” Brown said. “At the same time, I don’t minimize the significance o, California has a role to play, and If this terrorist attack. … It’s a very clear indication that this is a global phenomenon and that people who are committed to this jihadist doctrine are going to be killing people in very unexpected places. So we have to be, as I said, we have to be on our guard and we have to do whatever we can do.”

Brown said terrorism is a more difficult problem to address than climate change because “we know what to do about climate change.”(continued)

A pipe full of dynamite is not a puny bomb.

So, Moonbeam, how exactly did AZ or NV’s gun law facilitate these jihadists’ purchase of firearms in CA? Or help them make pipe bombs?

[Mariner]

"Only the law abiding, who don't murder to begin with, are hindered by such laws. "

Their ultimate goal is not control or administrative law, but confiscation.

For, they know as long as Americans have these weapons, they will be powerless to effect "real change".

[RginTN]

Because europes strict gun control laws has stopped gun violence!

[Amendment10]

"What about inviting hundreds of thousands of them to live job-free in our country? Is that a “gigantic back door” ?"

I agree. Gov. Browns meaningless immigration policies are a gigantic back door for terrorists.

[unlearner]

Then secede and restrict entry of gun carriers into your state.

We want an amicable divorce from liberal states anyway. If the coming divorce is not done amicably, it will be done, but it will get nasty.

We are NOT giving up our guns.

Gun control, registration, and confiscation has killed millions more than these mass shootings have or ever will.

[pierrem15]

Who cares about the back door when Obama’s immigration policies and lack of enthusiasm in the fight against Islamic terror are the big front door.

[Scrambler Bob]

Yep.

Made my comments based on seeing elbows with two plugs, a short pipe length about 3 inches with caps, and some “T”s with plugs.

They would hurt, produce dangerous frags, but not what I would call a bomb (the Feds would).

I would start ‘bomb’ at about 8 inches of 1 to 1 1/4 inch pipe. (Theoretically speaking, for research purposes.)

[stevem]

California is a giant back door for illegal aliens and imbecile governors. Come to think of it, they compliment each other.

[Scrambler Bob]

California is a giant back door
= = =
And living here sure feels like it. Ouch.

Only problem with this “analysis” buddy boy governor Moonbeam, choom-gang-— is that the weapons were purchased for them by a “neighbor” one Enrique Marquez— who is now on the lamb, and had his garage broken into LAST night (Saturday 5th Dec) by federal agents.

Who is Enrique Marquez— is he an active part of the continuing FAST and FURIOUS, revived to do this deed? And therefore accomplish what Fast & Furious was started to do— confiscate so-called “assault weapons”-— just as obamaumao will say needs to be done? How damned neat and convenient, and FALSE FLAG using cutouts of REAL terrorists, labeled as HOMEGROWN terrorists. Can FReepers see the pattern here? Just learned they have found Marquez— checked himself in (or so they say) to a mental hospital...riiiight— soviet style.

[maxwellsmart_agent]

Excuse me Jerry Brown; which state did the radicals attack in?

[John S Mosby]

We don’ know they were purchased “legally” because the guy they bought them from, or who bought them FOR them is named Enrique Marquez and he went on the lam, and conveniently has been found self admitted to a mental hospital. Wager he was an original operative in Fast & Furious on the mexican side of the border.

[ThePatriotsFlag]

Uh, didn’t they buy those guns in California, how is this the fault of some other state?

[Parley Baer]

As others have said the back door is the Southern border with Mexico.

[bgill]

Moonbat may want to close his southern door.

[Paladin2]

Feral Gov’t immigration is the front door for Jihadis.

[No You Cant]

Went it comes time to vote for governor of CA, just remember this bumper sticker:

If It’S Brown, Flush It!

[G Larry]

Ya, Jerry, we keeping hearing your whine, but the facts tell a different story.

The guns used in SB were purchased in California, so shut up already.

[norton]

The modifications done on the weapons is illegal under Federal law, wouldn’t it seem?

Most likely not; if I read it correctly the modification had to do with replacing the Cal mandated magazine release/tool required button with an otherwise/other state standard button. They are probably illegal in California only.
