Sounds like someone who is dying to walk into a bullet from a homeowner defending the sanctity of their locked home.

Actually she's looking for the police to kick in your door and kill you if you resist while she sits in cowardly splendor in her taxpayer funded office.

""Just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn't mean that we're not going to walk into that home and check to see if you're being responsible and safe in the way that you conduct your affairs," District Attorney Kamala Harris said."

That is just stunning. The nanny government is going to come into your home from time to time to make sure you're being a good boy. If they announced they were going to "walk into your home" whenever they want to check for drugs or porn, that city would erupt.

"I say let SF continue this nonsense, while productive citizens continue to leave town. It will be intersting to see how an entire society of “useless eaters” prevails on their own."

Sounds good, but it's a flawed ideal, unfortunately. SF will just ask for, and get, Federal money to make up the revenues. We can't abandon our "great cities" after all. *insert sarcastic face here*

This sounds like something that might have been said in Nazi Germany. Is this person familiar with the fourth amendment?

The ultimate goal of leftists is to seize all guns from honest, law-abiding citizens and intentionally leave them in the hands of criminals who prey upon the law-abiding citizens.

You are not kidding. When we want to take the most basic steps to ensure that unborn children are not tortured and mutilated, then we are not respecting people making a "sacred choice between the woman and her doctor".

But when we want to own a firearm to protect our children, they have no problem violating that sacred choice of home protection by trampling on our actually existing and enumerated Constitutional rights. They are truly pathetic and must be stopped.

Sounds like Rudy Giuliani.

And acts like him as well.

I recently read that while Rudy was mayor approximately 100,000 applications for NYC gun purchase permits were either arbitrarily denied or were dragged out by the people in charge of that department for such a long period of time by requiring repeat applications due to what were claimed to be reasons such as incomplete or improperly filled out applications, lack of proper documentation, failure to timely respond to requests for more information, failure to appear for personal interviews, blah, blah, blah, that the applicants just gave up in frustration and presumably forgot about buying a gun, or at least buying one legally.

The vast majority of those unsuccessful applicants were no doubt honest, law abiding NYC residents who wanted a gun for home protection, because criminals and prospective criminals don't even attempt going through the lengthy, complicated, and expensive ordeal of obtaining a NYC permit to buy a gun. They simply make contact with one of the many illegal sources for guns that exist in every city in the US and pay the higher price for a gun that is theirs without any paperwork or delays the moment they lay down the cash.

Now Rudy's annointed successor Bloomie is showboating for his liberal elitist supporters by sending his undercover agents into southern states, where they have no authority btw, to attempt to entrap unwary legal gun dealers in those states by buying guns using fake ID and giving false information on the required purchase forms. The federal BATF has protested Bloomie's tactic and the state of VA just enacted a law which now makes those agents criminals if convicted of attempting that kind of entrapment ruse in VA, and Bloomie has agreed to stop the illegal incursions, at least in VA.

No matter what Rudy says about the issue on the stump now, his record on the gun issue is very clear and very frightening. Any gun owner, or anyone who believes in constitutional government for that matter, who votes for Rudy is voting to nullify the protection that the 2nd Amendment was expressly written to provide for the basic human right to keep and bear arms for any and all lawful purposes. Rudy's advocates tell us that a president, even an ex-NYC mayor president, can't just arbitrarily outlaw gun possession by executive order except possibly during a declared state of emergency, and I think there is considerable doubt about that authority. But he or she does have the power to either veto or sign Congress's bills into federal laws that would do the same thing, and he/she does appoint federal judges and USSC Justices who can achieve the same effect simply by rendering an unconstitutional decision on the issue when a suitable case comes before his or her court.

Gun owners should also keep in mind that although Rudy now says on the stump that he understands the 2nd Amendment and is willing to leave the issue up to the states, he admits that he still believes that registering guns and licensing gun owners is constitutional, and is a good and proper act for state governments to take. The bottom line is that any gun owner who is even vaguely aware of the role that gun registration and licensing has played in other nations in the disarming of the people in preparation for a murderous dictatorship such as Hitler's or Stalin's will not be deceived by Rudy's seemingly benign current attitude toward guns and gun owners' rights.

Criminals check in with the Police? What a good idea.
That should stop the problem.
Maybe taking a peek at Chief Heather, who is Hillary Yoog-lee will cause a drop in crime.

Yep. And as I pointed out in my earlier post, this neo-Stalinist bitch wouldn't care if some cops got killed at the same time. She was in the news a couple of years ago, when a young gang-banger deliberately ambushed and killed a cop as part of a gang initiation. She refused to ask for the death penality, despite the clear special circumstances, because she opposes the death penalty. Even Diane Feinstein couldn't stomach that and criticized her for it. I can assure you, the SFPD hates this woman, and has no desire to raid peoples' homes on her behalf.

But they will if so ordered - zu befehl! She sounds like the type of person the second amendment was written for

Mayor Newsom hopes to extend the ban to public housing complexes

Good luck enforcing that. I lived about half a mile from one in the early 90s. Walked by it from the nearest BART station, unless it was dark. I could hear gunfire from "The Project" most nights from my balcony.

Good morning.

I cross the Golden gate only when I absolutely have to and I leave the city as soon as I can, but I won’t leave California without a fight.

That will be a metaphorical fight, of course, until the true purpose of the 2nd Amendment makes a real fight necessary.

Leave if you feel that you must, but know that what they are doing in San Francisco today is coming to every state in the Union.

I suppose dead officers would be defacto evidence that you weren’t storing your weapons properly.

Does that go for condoms too, District Attorney?

I don't think so. Much of the country is moving in the opposite direction with respect to gun ownership

Or evidence that you were. It depends on your point of view.

Without the second amendment

"Alle Ausgänge besetzen!"

"Das ganze Haus durchsuchen! Keinen Winkel auslassen, verstanden? Beeilung!"

"Alle aufstellen! Gesicht zur Wand, Hände hinter den Kopf!"

"Los, auf den Lastwagen! Das geht auch schneller!"

"Wer zu flüchten versucht, wird ohne Warnung erschossen."

"Alle abführen!"

With the second amendment

"Gruppe eins übernimmt das Erdgeschoss, Gruppe zwei die oberen Räume!"

This side toward enemy - Bang
