"The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
- Thomas Jefferson

*Sarcasm* Wow finally the law passed and already criminals (robbers, rapist, gangsters, mass shooters, mentally ill) are lining up at the police department to turn in their standard capacity magazines.

Wow the liberal logic law is so effective.......

I think they should ban drugs ....... That should work...... and must turn them in to Santa Ana police department who would be happy to smoke your pot and eat your edibles.

Every day the draw to get out of this stupid state grows more.

they already voted on it backdoor status, and threw this circus show to pretend to care about opinions from the pro-gun side.

[sarcasm] i am so glad this was supported by LEO's [/sarcasm]

should be an amendment to get rid of any type of LEO exemptions

I wonder how many potential criminals will be purchasing these magazines from law abiding people who just wish to get rid of them without having to go the police station and feel like they are now on radar.

Just seems like this ban will help supply criminals with the magazines the government wants to get off the streets. These common sense gun laws make absolutely no sense

****ing **** *** ****...
I used to love LA, now... I can't tell who's the greater evil, the law-makers or the law-breakers.

so, this stupid law was passed on July 28.
It goes into effect September 19.
60 days to comply, so that's today November 17.

anyone feel a cold chill up your spine?

*ahem* let me clear my throat...

Hi everybody! If there is anyone in LA who still hasn't complied with this law, I will be more than happy to help you remain a law abiding citizen. I am the great magician, King! If you would kindly give me all your standard capacity magazines, I will magically make them disappear right before your very eyes! And, as a special bonus, I'll throw in "making you feel safe" hypnosis for free! So come on down, I'm located at Edgemont & Sunset, in the alley behind Burger King & Kaiser Pharmacy, with three points of entry/exit. You feel glad you did!

LA D-Day is actually 11/19, and the last day to lawfully possess them in the city is tomorrow 11/18.

Yea, my bad.
Got thrown off by readysetgo's post, lol
Didn't find out until I read the NRA's Mag Ban Guide
