San Francisco Disarmament Plan...?

Post by TunnelRat »

Proposition H seeks to prohibit law-abiding San Francisco residents from purchasing firearms—rifles, shotguns and handguns— for any lawful reason, whether it be for self-defense, hunting or recreational shooting. If Proposition H passes, current law-abiding gun owners would have to surrender their registered handguns to the police.

Handguns not turned in voluntarily will become contraband, to be found and collected by the police, law enforcement officers who will be diverted from their jobs of apprehending violent criminals.

San Francisco and Chicago are on the same page.... :?

You would think someone could come up with oh say maybe 10 simple rules to live by that cover everything in life and that would be it.

San Francisco has proposed a ban several times, and each time it was struck down by the state. I considered moving from the East Bay into San Francisco a couple of years ago, but the proposed gun ban is only the tip of the iceberg of red tape in that city.

Did you know that San Francisco has a law that tells you how often you have to change your dog's water? Recently San Francisco also started shipping some of its homeless to Ohio. :roll:

The odd thing is: There are plenty of gun owners in California, and the ranges around San Francisco are top-notch, well organized, and absolutely gorgeous. I still have to find a place in Ohio for shooting rifles that is quite as nice.

Hey, yeah! I think I saw that idea in a movie or sumpin'. They'd have to be simple, even though they're hard to follow--ya gotta wanna follow 'em.
