That's right--California has the right to do that--that's why I don't live there, or Chicago, or New York. I like guns, I own several.

It really works out well--the People of the State of California want to ban guns, I want to own a gun, so I don't live there. What's the problem here?

There's a real simple solution: you want to own an assault weapon? There are like 45 other states to live in.

Where is it again that the right to sell dildos exists in the Constitution?

No, it's not a different story. This is the idea of Federalism -- South Carolina isn't enslaving anyone and they haven't put up guards at the border to keep people from leaving.
So tell me again, how is their freedom affected?

You want to own or buy an 'assault weapon'?
Don't Drive to California -- they can legally prohibit them according to a lot of so-called 'conservative' FReepers.

Are you one Val?

And yet you agree that I can't own an 'assault rifle' because I live in CA. Some conservative.

I moved to CA close to 50 years ago, with a rifle that is now 'banned' because of how it looks. -- Bet me that the will of the majority now has the 'right' to ban me and my gun from the state.

You cannot see the problem in such laws? BS.
There is some other agenda in play here. Can you tell me what it is?

It is about time that government at all levels were stripped of their ability to regulate most things that aren't an immediate threat to life and limb. It is also about time that majorities were reeducated to the fact that a 10% "fringe", or even less, can make it very uncomfortable for them and that any attempts to further impose their views had better be worth it to them.
