California Is At It Again With More Gun Control Insanity

It's a new wrinkle on an old play out of the gun grabbers playbook. Newsom signed a new law that allows residents, the state and local governments to sue members of the firearms industry that manufacture or sell "abnormally dangerous guns." And guess what this law fails to define? Abnormally dangerous guns, of course. Yep...gotta keep that part vague as the object isn't for the plaintiff to win its lawsuit. The object is for the gov't to inflict as much financial damage on the firearm industry as possible.

But it gets better. The abnormally dangerous law expands its scope beyond California's border. The article provides the following example:
"...a Tennessee company that manufacturers guns that are legal in its state but that meet California's definition of "abnormally dangerous" could still face liability under the law even its products were shipped to nearby Arizona and used later to commit a crime in California."

U.S. District Judge Andrew Schopler, who ironically happens to be a Biden appointee, issued a preliminary injuction, barring a lawsuit. Not because it violates the 2nd Amendment, of course, but because it interferes with interstate commerce.

Why not stiffer murder laws?

@MrBrownstone Democrats are determined to reduce crime by letting criminals go, convicting them of lesser charges or convicting them of nothing at all. See: Steinle, Kate, murdered by illegal alien who gets acquitted of all charges in Democrat-owned Frisco.

@MrBrownstone Exactly. They don’t want that idea floating out there do they?
