Sorry, all the protests in the world will change nothing. These restrictions will pass with ease, the freedom loving people still living in California are badly outnumbered. You have my sympathy.
Obama wants to be the next Castro!
Notice that NOT ONE of those cops are armed!
Wow, I was born in Urbana, and lived in Champaign. My parents moved us to Michigan shortly after. Creepy lol

Just imagine a world where there were no guns.
It was called the Medieval Era.

The morning after the government took their guns….
Additionally, if you do have to report on a shooting involving two criminals, please refer to the most seriously-injured as “just turning his (or her) life around”. The number and type of prior convictions is irrelevant. Additionally, do not address whether current firearms laws made it illegal either for the gun to be in the area where the shooting occurred or if the people involved could legally possess firearms. Mentioning any of these issues might plant some doubt in the mind of the audience about the efficacy of gun laws.
Even if you took a statistics class in your education, never comment on the statistical validity or study design of any study which supports gun control. Studies supporting the safe, defensive use of firearms are probably just written by gun nuts who can barely count, so no need in citing them.
Good for Alabama and I hope this serves as a model for many others. Not only for the specific points made but in the general principle that the usual menage of laws being overhauled for clarity and logic. It’s not perfect but you do what you can and far ahead of us in the occupied, Constitution Free zones.
I won’t bore everybody with a repost of my proposed “Bill of Rights” for gunowners but I see one being formed before my very eyes. God Save the South!
Don’t forget to click on the link for: “weapon of choice” 🙂
Hey come on, April fools is over, right??
Losers always have to have somebody to blame their own failings on. Blacks, Jews, Gun Owners. We all take our turn in the barrel.
Which is why I say we gun owneras need unity. Our race, gender or which god we choose to believe in or not to believe in should be secondary to our just cause of keeping gun ownership alive.
I agree, but I take that philosophy beyond the 2A. I hope that most of the commenters here are pro-individual liberty and not just pro gun.
BOTH parties have become tax-fattened!
Until we have an educated electorate, term limits, clear campaign finance and masses voting third party, there will be no change for good in this government.
Don’t blame the repubs or dems, it’s our fault for electing this liberty destroying mob.
Ammo shelves at Walmart are still empty.
The only stores that have stock are the ones that are price gauging.

Should parents ask if there’s a gay male in a household prior to allowing a playdate?
Because some parents have an irrational fear of gays, and believe (rightly or wrongly) that gay men are more likely to be pedophiles. Should those fears (whether they are rational or irrational) be accomodated?
The logic of gun control justifies some of the most vile bigotry imagineable.
