I have a different memory of these events. AG Dan Lungren silently refused to enforce this law and self registration was completely ignored by the gun owners of Cal. It had the state Dems in an uproar for years. Dan held up his hands, shrugged, and stonewalled....
Dan Lungren later became a US Rep, one of the House’s more Conservative members. He became a thorn in the Dem’s side especially Pelosi’s.... She targeted Dan’s seat, along with 9 other seats held by Conservatives for defeat by lefty losers and the Dems spent huge amounts of money trying to turn the district.
After 6 years of trying with no success, Dan’s district was redistricted and he lost to a crackpot Democrat far lefty named Amni Bera, who had been hand picked by Pelosi 4 years ago, losing his first attempt in 2010. No problem a little redistricting and voter fraud solved that!
No wonder we continuely lose we keep eating our own.....I know about me..... but are you sure you’re a Conservative?????
I’m about as far right as right gets and I do remember Lundgren publicly saying the confiscation was off the table during his effort to get the other legislators and the public to go along with the plan to register all SKSs. I’m not exactly sure of the time frame from when registration was implemented to the time Lungren informed the state that all SKS rifles had to be turned in to local PDs and what the consequences would be if one was found to have one in their possession. With that, are you saying that the SKS confiscation by the state of CA did not happen nor that AG Dan Lungren was not involved in orchestrating and carrying out the plan that resulted in the confiscation of those weapons? Admittedly, that was a long time ago and I don’t recall the minute details but I do recall clearly the out come and it happened under Wilson’s and Lungren’s watch. Any perceived resistance to it by Lungren was a joke but it sure shed light on the kind of person he is. How far do you think you can toss ole Dan boy?
