Florida: Three new Gun Control Bills. We are up to 29 now.

HB 627 – Assault Weapons and Large-Capacity Magazines
Assault Weapons and Large-Capacity Magazines: Prohibits sale, transfers, or possession of assault weapon or large-capacity ammunition magazine; provides exceptions; requires certificates of possession for assault weapons or large-capacity ammunition magazines lawfully possessed before specified date; provides conditions for continued possession of such weapons or large-capacity ammunition magazines; requires certificates of transfer for transfers of assault weapons or large-capacity magazines; provides for relinquishment of assault weapons or large-capacity magazines; provides requirements for transportation of assault weapons; provides enhanced criminal penalties for certain offenses when committed with assault weapon or large-capacity magazine.

Did an initial reading and this is pretty much Feinstein’s AWB II and AWB III. If you remember, the definition of Assault Weapons to be prohibited include pistols that have full automatic versions so Berettas, Glocks and 1911 can and bet your ass will be considered Assault Weapon. And if that is not enough, they also say that any semi automatic pistol that can accept a magazine with more than 10 rounds, is also an assault weapon. Basically over a century of semi automatic sidearms will be banned in the State of Florida. Grandfathering? But of course, but you have to register your Evil Black Rifle and Evil Black Pistol with the State. I will examine this bill with more detail later.

HB 629 – Pub. Rec./Personal Identifying Information of Assault Weapon or Large-Capacity Magazine Possession Certificateholder.
Pub. Rec./Personal Identifying Information of Assault Weapon or Large-Capacity Magazine Possession Certificateholder: Provides exemption from public records requirements for personal identifying information of person issued certificate of possession with respect to an assault weapon or large-capacity ammunition magazine; provides for access to exempt information for specified purposes; provides for future legislative review & repeal of exemption; provides statement of public necessity.

Since they are confident that we will get a Assault Weapon and Magazine Ban law passed, they are throwing a bone by promising us they will respect the privacy of those who have one of those infernal items when grandfathered and forced to register with the State.  Of course, they reserve the right to cancel the bone and reveal to the world who owns what when it comes to lawsuits and confiscation.

HB 631 – Sale, Transfer, or Storage of Firearms.
Sale, Transfer, or Storage of Firearms: Revises requirements for storage of firearms; provides criminal penalties if minor access stored firearm & uses it in specified ways; revises definition of “minor”; requires seller or transferor of firearm to provide specified information; provides immunity for certain providers of information; revises standard for adults & minors to be criminally negligent in storage of firearms in certain circumstances.

Two interesting things: It forces firearm dealers to basically give a firearm storage class every time they sell a gun to somebody including brochures and have to do it at cost. It raises the definition of minor from 16 to 18 for safety purposes and penalizes a minor who does not secure a weapon from another minor and it is used to shoot somebody, no exception if the shooting is a defensive one. If you are an adult who left the gun unsecured and was  used by a minor in self defense, you will not be penalized.

Florida: Deaths by Fentanyl v Gun Homicides.

I just bumped into this:

And because I am who I am, I went to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement UCR and checked the Firearm Homicide numbers for 2018.

That is almost three times more death by Fentanyl alone than with homicides by firearms.  Next I went to do a check in our Legislature pending bills to see if they have anything on Fentanyl seeing that we have almost three times more bodies dropping than gun and found only 7 returns to my query and all of them are just revision of the law in which the word Fentanyl appears and, Oh yes!  the darn chemical is already illegal, but somehow it kill 3 times more people than the guns Liberal and Democrats hate so much which may be is the reason we are facing 26  29 gun control bills in the legislature this year.

Gun Control is really People Control. Junkies are easy to control. Armed people? Not so much.


PS: Later that day, I found out that 3 more Gun Control bills had been filed the day before, thus the correction.

CA25 Congressional hell to get worse

To recap.  California’s 25th Congressional district had been a moderately Republican district.  Voting for Republican governors until the election of Gavin Newsom.  The district was represented by two Republican Congressmen going back to 1993.

Katie Hill was elected to represent CA25, flipping it Democrat away from Republican Steve Knight.

Hill was a Progressive darling.  Much like the Squad but less abrasive, she was being groomed by Speaker Pelosi for great things.

Then it came out that she had engaged in sexual relationships with paid subordinates in direct violation of the House rules and ethics.

Pelosi had no choice but to start an ethics investigation, prompting Hill to resign. The suddenness of her resignation suggested that she had even worse skeletons on her closet that an investigation would uncover.

Her resignation also allowed her to claim victim status, saying that she was driven out with revenge porn – or as Conservatives called it “corroborating evidence” – and misogyny.

That seat is now empty.

If you thought that this is where the drama of CA25 ended, boy were you wrong.  We are entering the second act of this shiy show.

After about a week away from the spotlight, Hill decided she’d come back into public life:

Cenk Uygur, the leader of The Young Turks, the Progressive news site has filed to run for Congress in CA25.

Uygur is a vile piece of human garbage.  He is an antisemitic, anti-Israel, radical socialist Progressive, who denies the Armenian Genocide and actually named his media outlet after the Turkish party that committed the Armenian Genocide.

So… he’ll fit right in with the Squad.

The problem with Uygur isn’t that he’s a genocide denying, Jew-hating, socialist – those are all positives for him.  The problem is that he has a twig and berries and identifies as such.

Christy Smith is a California assemblywoman who wants to level up to CA25 Congresswoman.  She decreed that a man running for CA25, which is his Constitutional right as a US citizen over the age of 25, is manspreading into her district.

Like that is her Congressional seat already.

Katie Hill decided to back up Smith.

That’s a women’s seat.  No men need apply.  Once a woman won it, it can never be represented by a Congressman ever again.

There are plenty of legitimate reasons to not vote for Cenk Uygur. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to throw Cenk Uygur out of a helicopter into the Pacific Ocean.  None of them have to do with his gender.

Brown Muslim Progressive vs. White Woman Progressive is going to be a hell of a fight to watch.

They don’t dare diverge on policy from the Progressive orthodoxy so identity politics is going to be their  battleground.

Perhaps a fire burning the district to nothing but ash is the best thing for it.

School shooting in Santa Clarita, CA. A miracle if it makes one full 24 cycle. (UPDATE)

No more explanations needed.

The shooter was indeed of Asian extraction, 15 years old, used a pistol in .45 ACP and unconfirmed it was a 1911 with the standard 7 round magazine.  Just think how many laws were broken, ignored and/or failed

And democrats decried the lack of the Federal Universal Background Checks law.

Punished for not fixing a problem the government created

I thought that vagrants dumping buckets of liquid shit on people while entitled degenerates are given a free pass to rob tax paying business of $950 worth of merchandise at a time was peak Progressivism.

I was wrong.

I forgot about this quote by Ayn Rand:

There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.

Letting the homeless former taxpayers still does not put the taxpayer sufficiently under the boot heel of government.

So what to do?

Enter Colorado:

Business Owner Livid When City Fines Him for Refusing To Clean Up Homeless People’s Feces

The government is fining a tax payer for not fixing the problem the government itself created.

As if dealing with homeless people defecating on his property wasn’t enough, a Denver businessman is now being faced with a citation from the city.

Jawaid Bazyar, the CEO of an internet service provider in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood, has been finding human feces on his property almost daily, KDVR reported Friday.

“This is a bathroom stall,” he said. “They just kinda lean up against the wall here and let it rip.”

“In downtown Denver, that’s nonstop now, just piles of poop.”

San Francisco of the Rockies.  This is why you don’t  let California Progressives colonize your Red state.

He said his employees have even been accosted and harassed.

“I’ve been chased with a 2-by-4, I’ve been chased with a knife, a pipe, and he took a rock, bashed in my whole windshield,” employee Tamara Chapman said.

And the police do nothing.  Not just is cleaning up vagrant shit a health hazard, it’s also puts workers at risk for violence.

Now, the businessman has stopped cleaning up the feces, leading to a citation from the city health department.

“It’s a biohazard. We don’t know, it could be infectious,” he said. “I didn’t hire these people to clean poop off the ground.”

The health department argued that feces removal was not its responsibility because the mess was on private property.

Does this guy really expect bureaucrats to lift a finger to help him when there is revenue to be made by fining him for not cleaning up the mess the bureaucracy created?

That’s not how the system works.

He has money which means it’s in the best interest of government to take his money, not spend money on him.

Really, the ultimate government system is to fine the business owner for not cleaning up shit and using some of that money to feed the homeless Curry and prune juice and tell them they won’t be arrested for shitting on the business owners property.  That creates an endless source of revenue for the government – until the business owner gives up and moves or the business goes under.  But there is always another business to replace that one (at least that’s the bureaucrats’ assumption).

But that response does little to help Bazyar.

“Like I’m the bad guy, right, like I’m not the one doing this,” he told KDVR.

“And they won’t do anything about the people committing crimes.

Because sending police after violent shitting vagrants is dangerous and costs money.  Fining a law abiding citizen is not dangerous and generates revenue.

Bazyar decried the government’s inaction as a political problem.

“I don’t even know what I’m supposed to do,” he said. “The government’s primary job is public safety.”

That naivete is adorable.

The Progressive defense of the Deep State has proven beyond a doubt that the purpose of government, at all levels, is to create sinecures for people too incompetent to succeed in the private sector.

College kids are coming out of school (college and public) less educated than ever before, school tuition or per student cost is at an all time high, and our schools have more non-teaching administrators making more money than ever.  This is not a coincidence, this is the system.

I almost feel bad for Bazyar.  Except he probably voted for the politicians who are doing this to him, and will still support the same political party, and will still believe in the Progressive cause.  He just never thought he’d be the victim of the policies he voted for.
