Notice I omitted the ‘gun’ word in the title? And deliberately so… here we go again! Another ill concieved, do nothing, crackpot law, proposed by a flaming liberal with NO expertise in the area of firearms or criminology. Yet, this person by virtue of her own self assured ego has the gall to propose Assembly Bill 48, which has just passed the Assembly Public Safety Committee on a 5-2 party line vote Tuesday.
The author, Ms. Skinner from Berkeley, thinks there are more regulations to purchase alcohol, cigarettes and some cold medicine than there are to buy ammunition, according to her website. (Yeah, and who gave us all those regulations?) Yet, bullets are what makes a “gun deadly.” No Ms. Skinner, for the umteenth-million time: It’s not the gun, it’s not even the bullets…it’s the person pulling the trigger that makes it deadly and your stupid bill won’t do one $#@^&* thing to punish a violent criminal. But, her proposed law will once again punish the innocent and law abiding…that’s great, just great! That’s exactly what we don’t need and worse there’s not been one ounce of evidence presented to support her theory. But, never mind things like facts and evidence - they have the votes to pass anything, anytime.
AB48 would require sellers to be licensed, buyers to present an ID, and ban kits that alter magazines to be able to fire more than 10 rounds. Purchases would need to be reported to the Department of Justice, and local law enforcement would have to be informed if someone buys 3,000 rounds of ammunition in five days, according to the bill.
Not one thing in this bill will make us safer, it’s a paper chase, another level of bearocracy and an additonal cost to taxpayers that we can’t afford.
Thanks to the gun-grabbing idiots like Skinner a box of 9 mm ammo that sold last year for about $15 now runs about $48, if you can even find a box! ( Can the revolution be that far away? )
