The most idiotic one is the law that prohibits the sale of guns that
haven't passed California's special safety test. A couple of years
ago I was in a gun store where they were selling a batch of beautiful,
expensive revolvers for 30% off before the ban went into effect.

Bzzzzt! In context, you had it right the _first_ time. tolss based on
"how much" (the 'metric') of an ass they are. The syllable break is
after the 'y', in your original spelling

Let's see:

"Assault weapon" ban, 10 day waiting periods, no "must issue" concealed carry,
"unsafe" weapons restrictions...etc.

Get a copy of ATF P 5300.5. It's a summary of state gun laws published by ATF.
The 2003 edition 69 pages of California's laws versus 3 pages for Kentucky and
2 for Vermont.

I had a FFL in California and wholesale sold guns for ten years. I'm not up
to
speed on the current laws. What do you find idiotic?

I think Disney, Unversal Studios, and Marine world will complain, the
tourists will go else where rather than pay $45.00 to vacation there

I thought they were all coming to Arizona! I hope the heat drives out
the delusional tendencies (like, California is normal and the rest of
the country has it wrong). ;-)
