Glad I don't live in CA. I may have been born there but I chose to live in Nevada.

great example:
so often it's not necessarily the bill, or idea behind it, it's the way it's written. Logic and clear thought seem, often, to escape legislators.

AHA! Now I KNOW you've read the Congressional Record.

Showing a photo of a handgun with a magazine.

And this is the source of information?

It got worse.

Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...
Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants;
they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

It is irrelevant whether criminals are armed or not.

If Jesus Christ had miracled his ass an M-60, there would have been no crucifixion, jews wouldn't have been used as human lamp oil or cat food by the Romans, no inquisition, no crusades, no holy wars. Dirty fucking hippie. Jesus is the King of the Trustafarians.
