I am a Democratic and i am with the O man cuase he trying to make things better and it seem like there always talking about how he going to take Our guns away. BUT it's Republican that seem to be doing it. The 1968 gun control acted, the banning of a lot of the cool Assault weapons, and now this? I wanted a Streetsweeper shotgun but it a DESTRUCTIVE DEVICE so it's going to happen. I saw some of those tea party people outside my work talking about how The O is takeing away our rights and i looked them in the eye and said " like how you people took away our guns back in the 90'?"
Jamal, you're not originally from this Country are you?
i was born at the navy air station in pensacola and i have live in FL for 21 years. I am 22.
the bill restricts ammunition sales in California was signed by Governor Schwarzennegger(R).
The bill will take effect on February 1, 2011. His comments are below:
“To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am signing Assembly Bill 962.
This measure would require vendors of handgun ammunition to keep a log of information on handgun ammunition sales, store ammunition in a safe and secure manner, and require the face to-face transfer of ammunition sales.
Although I have previously vetoed legislation similar to this measure, local governments have demonstrated that requiring ammunition vendors to keep records on ammunition sales improves public safety. These records have allowed law enforcement to arrest and prosecute persons who have no business possessing firearms and ammunition: gang members, violent parolees, second and third strikers, and even people previously serving time in state prison for murder.
Utilized properly, this type of information is invaluable for keeping communities safe and preventing dangerous felons from committing crimes with firearms.
Moreover, this type of record keeping is no more intrusive for law abiding citizens than similar laws governing pawnshops or the sale of cold medicine. Unfortunately, even the most successful
local program is flawed; without a statewide law, felons can easily skirt the record keeping requirements of one city by visiting another. Assembly Bill 962 will fix this problem by
mandating that all ammunition vendors in the state keep records on ammunition sales.
As Governor, I have sought the appropriate balance between public safety and the right to keep and bear arms. I have signed important public safety measures to regulate the sale and transfer of .50 caliber rifles, instituted the California Firearms License Check program, and promoted the use of microstamping technology in handguns. I have also vetoed many pieces of legislation that sought to place unreasonable restrictions and burdens on firearms dealers and ammunition vendors.
Assembly Bill 962 reasonably regulates access to ammunition and improves public safety without placing undue burdens on consumers. For these reasons, I am pleased to sign this bill.”
Mayor Bloomberg's racist gun policies and just war on guns he is also a Republican. he has the aggressive "stop and frisk" policy.
Police have stopped and frisked more than 130,000 people in the third quarter of 2009, a 15 percent jump from the same period 2008, according to a report released by NYPD.
Over the quarter, police stopped and interrogated 137,894 people, 93 percent of whom were men, and 58 percent were black.
Hispanic men made up 31 percent of those who were stopped and frisked, and white men were stopped just 9 percent of the time, according to the report.
Under the Stop and Frisk program, officers can stop, question and pat-down people they deem suspicious.
Police also keep information about the people they frisk in a database.
Racial profiling--in New York? Hardly a surprise--racism, after all, was a prime motivating factor behind the Sullivan Act.
Like the Sullivan Act, Bloomberg's efforts to crack down on Walking While Dark-Skinned is presented as being in the interest of "public safety."
It would seem that Mayor Bloomberg is an enthusiastic advocate of a policy of "No Guns for Negroes.".
Yeah i have been Stopped and Frisk( was with some frineds and one unknow to me was steal). The found my pocket knifes(i have a outdoors life and my CRKT M16 that i both carry sometimes) but it was no probelm and they gave my stuff back. I love the cops and they have a hard job. If i lived in NYC or California i would be in jail for haveing a weaopn on me.
so yes, i see that Republican seem to be the one takeing rights away but they are away said it the Democratic that are doing it. Yeah Democratic have done some stuff but it been on both side they been up to no good.
