Mr. Dicken passed background checks and purchased several handguns before Aug. 24, when state police called saying they needed to visit to verify serial numbers of his guns before they approved his pending purchase. Two troopers arrived at Mr. Dicken's house in an unmarked car, Mr. Dicken presented the guns, and the troopers told him they had been ordered to seize all his firearms.

This really ticks me off reading this story. I would rather die than have my guns confiscated.

One gun owner had a 1983 conviction come back to haunt him. Maryland State Police seized firearms from Larry L. Dicken's home outside Cumberland in August, even taking with them his hunting rifle.

And before they're done out here in California, they'll be seizing guns if you have so much as a parking ticket. All except those beloning to Diane Feinstein, of course.

I just did a private party transfer with a handgun for a friend. They put you through so much garbage!

My friend had to have a valid handgun certificate, valid drivers license, $30 for the transfer tax, $15 for a trigger lock, and now he has to wait 11 days to get the gun. In 2003 California is even putting more anti Constitutional restrictions on handguns. This state is so socialist/communist it make me sick. I am so glad that I am moving out of California in March 2002 .

And nobody does anything about it. Not the NRA. Not the CRPA. Nobody.

But just you so much as suggest that illegal aliens are not entitled to in-state tuition at the University of California and the ACLU will be all over you like a bad smell.

What can these organizations do about it? Most Californians delight in the more gun control and the Senators keep chipping the right to bear arms away. If most people in California want no guns, that's what they are going to get.

They will get rid of all the legal guns in California anyway. The crime rate will skyrocket in California then.
