Gun Control at it's finest.

Schwarzenegger Signs Bill on Gun Limits
By TOM CHORNEAU, AP

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (Sept. 14) - Enhancing his standing as a moderate within the
Republican Party, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed laws outlawing the sale of
a high-powered rifle and requiring health insurance policies to offer equal
coverage to registered domestic partners.

The weapons law, signed Monday, bans the sale of .50-caliber BMG rifles, a move
that stands in contrast to the decision of Republican leaders in Congress not
to renew a 10-year-old federal ban on assault weapons that expired the same
day.

Gun control advocates say the measure makes California a national leader in
improving public safety.

"California has once again confirmed its status as a bellwether state in
preventing gun violence," Tom Diaz of the Violence Policy Center in Washington
said Tuesday. "Today's action not only protects the police and public, but
stops the sale of a confirmed tool of terrorists."

Studies by the Violence Policy Center have shown that the rifles can pierce
many types of protective armor and are accurate from more than a mile away. The
weapon, which can weigh up to 28 pounds, fires a bullet about 6 inches long and
is typically used by game hunters and target shooters.

Assemblyman Paul Koretz, a Democrat, sought regulation of the weapon after
learning of its destructive capability.

Opponents of the law said there was no evidence the guns have been used in
criminal activity.

====================================

The Terminator has just spent a few million dollars of the tax payer's money
(so far) to ban a weapon that has a low end cost of $2500 dollars (for a bolt
action) and a high end cost of 14 -Grand-.

They're 5 feet long and weight almost 30 pounds.

The low end ammo is three bucks a cartridge.

The perfect concealability/drive-by weapon for the local gang banger.

I'm glad Tom Diaz of the "Violence Policy Center" thinks that Osama bops down
to Walmart to get these.

All you Libertarians don't all clamor up at once.

These weapons have *never* been used to commit a single criminal act.

Diaz is a bald faced liar and moron of galactic proportion.

The liberals deserve him.

Ahrnohld is a pussy who made his living glorifying the guns he now
wants to ban. Just like so many Hollywierd types.

I know of a person who shall go unnamed who blew a wad of money on a
Barret and 300 rounds last week. He knew what was coming. He also
owns several "illegal" assault weapons.

Thats the typical lame "argument".

Why not?

If it is not being used for criminal acts, it is none of your business what
I or anyone else does or doesnt have, own or want.

What do you drive?

Waskelly Wabits?

I dunno, why does Ahhnold need 7 fuckin Hummers?

Why does Feinstein have a pistol permit, when she says you can't?

I don't need a .50. but, if -you- can decide what -I- can and can't have,
then -I- can decide what -you- can and can't have, right?

exactly....For real fun, try hitting an "empty" acetylene cylinder with
one. (at about 200 yds).
