Newsom signs California gun bill modeled after Texas abortion law

[B. Kidd]

Even the Court agrees there are limits on what arms you can purchase

You can’t buy a Sidewinder missile

But you can buy a flamethrower.

Are lefties trying to make a ludicrous claim that a gun ban in California is payback for a S.C. decision about RvW? If so, it's nuttier than I thought on the left coast.

Arms are protected in the Constitution, abortion is not. This one's going to the supremes.

Civil court issues. Funny how the Righties forget that what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

WTF are you blubbering about? Get your thoughts together and go for a nice waddle.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Not the same retard. and against federal law.

Bodeca the retard thinks that a federal law is somehow less then a state law.

States can write their own laws. If the tactic is acceptable in Texas for abortions, it's acceptable in California for guns.

States can not write laws that conflict with Federal laws. There is a Federal law that specifically states that Firearms manufacturers can not be sued for individuals using their arms for criminal acts.

And in federal court, they can't be. State court is different.

A Federal law applies even in a State.

“California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday signed a bill into law that allows private citizens to bring civil action against anyone who manufactures, distributes, transports or imports assault weapons or ghost guns, which are banned in the state.”

California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday signed a bill into law that allows private citizens to bring civil action against anyone who manufactures, distributes, transports or imports assault weapons or ghost guns, which are banned in the state.

This is likely in anticipation of the Supreme Court striking down states’ assault weapon bans.

When that happens, private citizens will continue to enforce the ban via civil suits; the Constitution, the Second Amendment, and rulings of the Supreme Court apply only to government, not private citizens.

And conservatives have only themselves to blame; it was Republican lawmakers who contrived this scheme to circumvent the right to privacy.

Sounds like I am gonna win either way.

You don't have to agree with me. The outcome is the same either way.

States can write their own laws. If the tactic is acceptable in Texas for abortions, it's acceptable in California for guns.

Federal law supersedes state law. That's why states can't make their own immigration laws or penalties. Any judge that would rule in favor of a plaintiff could be disbarred.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Once again liberals demonstrate their abject ignorance and down right stupidity. Gun ownership is a Constitutionally protected right, baby killing is not, there is no comparison. On the plus side, Newsom just ended any hopes of ever reaching the White House as anything other than Dr Jill's boy toy.

I don't think he ever stood a chance. He was elected and supported through his recall because the people of California are completely stupid, but the rest of the country is not. Because of that his head got too big.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

You'll have to ask Texas politicians why, but since they did it for abortion, and the supreme court approved the tactic, that box has been opened.

Texas didn't violate any federal law.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Good for Gov Newsom

Keeping his state safe
Given their record for mass killings, Texas should follow his lead

I say good for him too. Now only the criminals and police will have the guns. That should produce a great turnout.

Let the State decide what laws they want

That is what SCOTUS has been telling us

A state doesn't have the authority to overrule the US Constitution or federal law.

Not sure how the California law is different than Texas abortion law. Please explain the difference.

Then we will see the courts involved soon.

There is no law about abortions at the federal level there IS a law at the federal level PREVENTING firearms manufactures from being sued for such things that have no relation to the making of the firearm.

There are at least three different reasons you are wrong, but I don't really care if you personally don't understand that. Sit back and see if the California law is allowed to go into effect, and get back with me after a few months.
