California Legislature takes first steps toward 'ammo control'

[ProgressiveProfessor]

83. Most Americans don't believe that all laws are stupid...only the ones they disagree with

Its a strong part of who we are as a people. We tend not to believe that the government/pols are any smarter or wiser than we are. It drives the zealots nuts on both sides. Some pols deride Johnny Six Pack and flyover country, saying how they know what we really need and then wonder why our party loses elections. Poke the little people where they live and you may not like the result.

The other thing that neither side acknowledges is the slow evolution/changes in what is acceptable. Being gay was once considered a mental disease and interracial marriage, let alone gay marriage could get you sent to jail. Prior to New Town, the pendulum was swinging against gun control. More and more states were going with concealed carry and even constitutional carry. Castle Doctrine was well entrenched, and SYG was gaining. Now things seem more balanced. The DiFi bill died (smart move by the antis) in favor of a piecemeal approach.

In the end I expect a broader regulatory spread. LA politicians would love to gun laws like WashDC and Chicago and the state of CA may let them. On the other hand I expect places like Utah to get looser and more liberal with their gun laws.
