HIGH CAPACITY MAG BAN-- WHEN?

I honestly don't give a flying poop if the 2004 hi-cap law is restored or not--since I still won't be able to get a hi-cap in Kalifornia. Living in Kalifornia, it will not effect the laws here...hi-caps have been permanently banned in Kalifornia.
 
Got out-of-state friends/relatives? Sure, smuggling is illegal, but as was said somewhere else, so was dumping tea in Boston Harbor.

AFAIC, when a state outlaws non-low-flow-toilets and kangaroo-hide products, it has established itself as a joke, and defiance is mandatory.

Agreed, but I don't know anyone out of state. I guess I could always drive to NV, OR, or AZ to get hi-caps, but that would really be inconvenient.
 
I am just going to state the obvious, and I am sorry I do not have something more in depth and articulate to say: Limiting guns magazines to 10 rounds will do absolutely nothing. If a criminal is using a gun to kill someone, do you think he cares how many rounds his magazine carries? No, because 10 rounds or 100, it does not matter how many rounds their gun has, its still going to kill someone.

And trying to ban standard capacity magazines is just a transparent attempt to make it look like they are trying to do something about the so called "gun problem" in the US. They only do what they do to gain popularity, disarm us law abiding citizens, and to hide it behind "doing something for the children".

Many of you may have known that Los Angeles county banned gun shows last year. And murder is actually up something like 8%. Now how could this happen? I thought banning gun shows would stop people from getting killed. Yet another thing they did to gain popularity, and make it look like they cared, and were trying to do anything.

And, in in average in the US less then 2% of guns used in crime are purchased at gun shows. And Los Angeles knew this, yet they went ahead with the ban anyways. Because they do not care where the guns come from, they just need a someone to blame, to make it look like they have solved something.

But, in the end, the truth comes through, they have not solved anything by any of these meaningless gun laws. Every gun law out there was obviously not thought through properly, and does not do anything to stop criminals from owning guns. And hopefully, we will win it, and everyone will realize that in all those years of watching politicians "solving problems" they were watching a curtain being pulled over their eyes.

Follow this link for George W. Bush's Official views. Not a gun owner's friend.

I'll quote in part: "Supports increasing the minimum age for possession of a handgun from 18 to 21. Supports banning the importation of foreign made, "high-capacity" ammunition clips"

I guess that means that our Military will no longer be able to enlist 18-20 year olds.

God made us in his own image.
Thomas Jefferson made us free.
John Browning made us equal.

Without Browning, we might not know about the other two...
 
Bush is our only choice for any hope at this
point.
Having said that I believe with socialism
creeping in and the increased population in
15 years or less private ownership of guns will be gone.I wish I had an answer for it,
I see none,in order for us to enter the
global arena they speak of we must be beat
down to third world status. Pessimist, yep.
I will vote Bush.!!!

We'll just have to give them even more withering, relentless attacks if they don't end the ban! :D

You know what, if in 2004 they don't re-issue the hi cap ban but they put serial #'s on the post Sep 2004 magazines, we can be prosecuted if we smuggle them. If they were made after Sep 2004, Kalifornia would (see the serial #) and know there was no way we owned them prior to the 2000 ban on hi-caps. Thus, they could add a felony to our record!

"Who cares if they ban assault weapons. All I care about are my accurized bolt rifles."

"Who cares if they ban autopistols. I only like revolvers."

"Who cares if they ban new machineguns. All I want is my O/U shotgun for duck hunting."

"I don't care about hi-caps. I only shoot single-stack 1911s."

Sound familiar???
