Hmm... is there to be a gun banning executive order or vote tomorrow or next week?

Yes, FineSwine is due to introduce her Gun Ban, which would ban all semi-auto rifles and many semi-auto shotguns, unless they have fixed magazines of 10 or less rounds capacity, (SKS would be banned by name), 5 rounds for shotguns. (Exception for tubular magazine .22s, but that would still mean the 10/22 would be banned. I have a 25 round removable magazine for mine) In fact I don't own a rifle that would not be banned.

And this ban has teeth. While existing weapons could be kept, they would need to be registered as NFA weapons, meaning paying $200 for each weapon, maybe more if she also raises the "tax" to adjust for inflation since 1934, if she does that, it will be more like $4000. Unlike machine guns under the current NFA law, could never be transferred to anyone else, not even after the owners death, they would have to be turned in to the BATFE...

And this will end the (almost daily) shootings in Oakland how exactly?
