Prohibited from Passing Down My Personal Property?

[robertkjjj]

How can this be legal?

I purchased it fair and square. Why am I unable to pass it down to my children after I have expired?

Confused...

Until an attorney or what-not can prove to me that this policy is any way remotely enforceable, my family will just ignore such silliness.

Taxation without representation.

Sound familiar? Maybe only to those over 40 that had US history classes that included stuff beyond slavery and civil rights.

there are those on here under 30 who are well informed about the issues at hand

Cache and GPS. They'll never find it.

Legal question about SB880.

I was just thinking, since long gun registration went into effect 1/1/14, Wouldn't forcing me to pay a fee to re-register an already registered long gun as an AW be unlawful? It's essentially extortion. The burden should be on them to re-register at their cost since they know which post January 1, 2014 guns people have.

On a similar note, I understand that they have defined fixed magazine. However, there are other ways of pinning a magazine, such as a prince50, a rivet, or welding. The law does not account for these and, especially in the case of a rivet or welding, there is no way magazines could be considered not fixed even if they don't meet the CA criteria for fixed magazine.

Couldn't these be grounds for lawsuit? The first point I bring up affects all post January 1, 2014 purchases so I would think it would fit the bill for a class action.

Please, serious discussion only.

This is nothing new, you know. Registration originally ended in 2000.

Or maybe the fact that they grandfathered our mags and are now stealing them without compensation.

Or the fact that a registry is against the law.

Or the fact that they exempted themselves from the law.

I don't think the legal system is really working here. That's why I am targeting the cash side of things. Money talks.

Your previously purchased long guns are not 'registered' in the way the law for 'assault weapons' requires.

CA has created the precedent with 1989 Roberti-Roos and 1999 'features' amendment registration requirements.

So the seizure of legally owned property has passed constitutional muster?

Damn...

The new reg'd AWs could be inherited/taken possession of outside CA by beneficiary.

Also, the estate administrator can take possession and move it/sell it out of state [perhaps with services of CA FFL w AW permit] to recover funds, so the question of 'takings' is somewhat mitigated.

I understand that I am free to move my property out of state.

I'm not looking for loopholes. I'm genuinely curious as to why I am not allowed to do the same within the state of California.

It simple CA is moving toward being what they think will be a gun free state and this law is just one of the ways they intend to bring that about. actually after this gun grab comes about most of the guns left will be in the hands of bad guys so look for a big rise in crime when CA gets though with this mess.
