AB 962 - Governor Signs the Bill.

Anthroblogogy is reporting that Governor Schwarzenegger has signed AB 962, meaning that ammunition restrictions will go into effect in 2011.

They also speculate that there may be a legal challenge to this bill under Federal preemption laws, but that remains to be seen. In any case California shooters are screwed.

Thanks Sacramento!

The federal government had legislation like this around 1968 to 1986 and it didn't work as a deterrent to law breakers. The only people who get screwed on these things are the conservative gun owners! You certainly don't see any liberals as being pro second ammendment!

Of course not. Liberals hold that guns are evil, and that there is no legitimate use for firearms.

It did not help that cities that have had similar local ordinances in place reported a number of cases where prohibited people were prevented from buy ammunition.

So, what.

All this means is that there will be a black market in ammunition. Gun owners better start storing their ammunition in their gun safes, because it is now a prime target for theft.
