Welcome to the USSA, comrades.

Of course, some animals are more equal.

we can be right back where we were when we demanded Independence

Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it. Check.

When a long train of abuses . . . evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty to throw off such Government. Check.

He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance . . . Check.

He has obstructed the administration of justice. Check.

He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. Check.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislatures. (Officers of regulatory agencies pack heat. Just in case a citizen gets uppity.) Check

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution and unacknowledged by our laws, giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation. (UN) Check.

For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments; (State government subservient in all ways to national) Check.

For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. (EPA, Dept of Education . . . )Check.

He has excited domestic insurrection among us. (Open door to illegals) Check.

But hey, what do I know?

Kalifornians that wish to leave the state should be quarantined for 2 years before permitted to reside in another state.

You're quite right how the Democrats [with Republican help] have largely rebuilt Imperial England. Laws for us and privileges for them.

Don't recall exactly how the language was worded in England but essentially.....

People were allowed to own weapons for their defense and other lawful purposes as was suitable to their status, class and as permitted by law.

Many of our elected officials truly believe that they are royalty.

If they're mentally diseased liberals, yes, most definitely.

We should help conservatives leave.

California. Liberalism showcase.

Conservatives are at least carriers. If they haven’t left by now they are infected.

Ever meet one that has moved away that hasn’t tried to change his new home town to be like where he just moved from?

We don’t give a damn how you did it in KA!

Quarantine. 2 years.

Sorry. Wasn't trying to imply this was bogus info just that nobody else was certainly covering it.

Here is a list of all bills under consideration of the CA Senate.

I looked thru a few but my eyes glazed over this late at night. Have at it if anyone wants to find the bill particulars.

Okay. I found it (thank you for the reference page). This is SB 610.

“The bill would also require that the good cause
requirement be deemed met for any applicant who is a member of Congress, a statewide elected official, or a Member of the Legislature, for purposes of protection or self-defense.”

http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/sen/sb_0601-0650/sb_610_bill_20110413_amended_sen_v97.html


One can see from the Text that this section has been struck/lined through in two separate areas. I don’t know if this is the final version, but if one resides in California - call your Legislator and ask for a email text copy of the version voted on to find out.

I see that. Interestingly, I found another bill that appears to be waiting in the wings in case this one fails. See SB 465 below.

=====================
sb 465
INTRODUCED BY Senator Wright

Firearms:
concealed firearm license.

Existing law provides that when a person applies for a license to carry a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person, the sheriff of a county or the chief or other head of a municipal police department of any city or city and county may issue a license to that person upon proof of certain requirements, including that good cause exists for the issuance of the license.

This bill would provide that the good cause requirement would be deemed met for any applicant who is a member of Congress, a statewide elected official, or a Member of the Legislature, for purposes of protection or self-defense, and that those persons would be required to comply with all other requirements for obtaining or renewing the license, as specified.

===================
BB guns are currently exempt from the list of what qualifies as an imitation firearm. This bill will include BB guns as imitation firearms thus making people dealing with BB guns subject to the penalties listed below.

SB 798
INTRODUCED BY Senator De León

This bill would make the provision imposing a civil fine on the sale, manufacture, transportation, receipt, or distribution of imitation firearms for commercial purposes applicable to BB devices.

=================
A bill to fund California's firearm registration database

SB 819

INTRODUCED BY Senator Leno

28225. (a) The Department of Justice may require the dealer to charge each firearm purchaser a fee not to exceed fourteen dollars ($14), except that the fee may be increased at a rate not to exceed any increase in the California Consumer Price Index as compiled and reported by the Department of Industrial Relations.

Its called residency requirements, and your right for Californians immigrating to other more freedom loving states they should perhaps be at least 2 years.
