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.

@BizSuitStacy Nah, my mum didn't drink when she was pregnant with me.
@BritishFailedAesthetic so you're a dim bulb naturally. Got it.
@BizSuitStacy More faith than brain cells as you put it, and I'm happy to stick to that label.

I find the NRA to be one of the weaker pro-gun groups, but in all the cases you will find gun owners are better neighbors than you deserve.

@IronHamster Are you a member of the Virginia Citizens Defense League?

@BritishFailedAesthetic I'm nowhere near there. As a British slave, you are probably as close to Virginia as I am.

@BritishFailedAesthetic Is Britain still working on knife control and stopping acid attacks? Dangerous place now, the UK.

asti.or.uk -
How many acid attacks in the UK per year?
United Kingdom

The UK now has the highest number of recorded attacks in the world, with a 69% rise in the number of attacks in 2022. Acid attacks peaked in 2017, with 941 recorded cases.
@graphite Ofcourse we are.
