All crimes are commited with legally obtained guns, in the hands of thier legal owners... ::)
I'm so glad I bought some land out of state and will be leaving CA with in a year or 2.

I've read several reports on this bill as it was working its way around and think I understand how it works for sales. However, a question I have is how does this new law affect guns brought into the state for competition purposes? Can a poor dumb hick from Minnesota bring his non-California guns in for a week of play and leave, or do I need to boycot the state since I can't afford a special set just for playing around fruits and nuts?

OK this idiot bill passed. It is NOW time for the gun manufacturers to boycott CA. No guns for ANY reason sold to anyone (especially police) in CA.
Ronnie Barrret set the standard!
We have supported the MFGs with our money for years. It is now time for them to support us by boycotting CA starting NOW, no excuses about "we are trying to work with CA to get the bill modified..."etc. STOP selling in CA now.
Michael, as you are high profile and have many of the MFGs ears you should spread the word.
(In case you hadn't noticed I'm POd about this!)

PO'd - as well we all should be. Sadly, the gun grabbers (GGs) have some smarts, my guess is they have excluded the police forces from this egregious bill. Thus, it will be difficult for any company to turn down a contract with a force.
BUT, having said that, a boycott of selling anything gun-related to the PDs of California is an excellent idea - when even they can't find ammo or new weapons to replace the worn ones, things would change very quickly - if you could get dealers to comply.
Also, it could be turned against us - "those mean old gun owners are putting our police at risk" is one way the GGs could twist this. So perhaps work uietly with the polic unions to work with them to say "back repeal and this boycott will end" sort of conversations.
Sadly, nothing in life is quite as simple as painted here, but a boycot is an interesting suggestion.

Path,
The 50 cal ban doesn't cover cops and Ronnie still won't sell to them.
We gotta make a stand!

This will give momentum to other Peoples Republic states to pass similar legislation. With a big Dem victory possible in '08 we are going to have a long four years. Make sure all your buddies are NRA members and start preaching to the doubters.

It literally turned my stomach to know Arnie signed this stupid bill. >:(
I'd love to stay and fight/educate the shee'ple of Kalifornia - not that I'm STUBBORN about it or anything. Maybe it's time to get serious about finding a place in a more gun-friendly state.
...ummm, maybe I could get a .50 Cal bmg...or the MP5...or...ooo, I should stop now
-
F^$K California, and F*$K Arnold. Anything less that a universal boycott as mentioned above represents complete capitulation and surrender on our part, and as such, is completely unacceptable.
PO'd doesn't even begin to describe it right now...

If the Supremes decide on Parker and it goes our way, what are the chances we could start unraveling more infringements like these? It made me sick when I heard the news about this. I am making my escape plans as well. Where is the best place to go in the U.S. any more? I prefer low taxes and no or few 2nd amendment hassles. Any ideas? Weather is negotiable...
-
This bill is obviously the work of the gun grabber and Arney should not have let it pass under any circumstanced I do not believe that the slogan on LAPD's cars "To protect and serve"is provided to the non-rich. >:(
-
That is why I thought the side of Barricade in the movie Transformers which read "To Punish and Enslave" where you would normally see to protect and serve was so fitting...
