BREAKING NEWS...On Saturday, October 13, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger sided with over 65 police chiefs, sheriffs and police organizations - representing cities and towns across the state of California - and signed the Crime Gun Identification Act of 2007 AB-1471 (HTML or PDF) into law. This bill requires that, by 2010, all semi-automatic handguns sold in the state of California be fitted with a technology to help police officers solve gun crimes faster -- even when the gun is unavailable.

State of California Bans The .50 Caliber BMG Cartridge

SCOTT ADKINS Contributes...Well I 've seen where they outlawed the 50 bmg in the state of California. I have to wonder what the legislatures in these states that pass these types of laws, really think about what they are doing, or if they think at all.  And how many of you think about the effects of the laws they pass? Do you realize you would have a better chance of winning the lottery than being harmed by a 50 bmg. Does anybody really know how many innocent people have been killed by the 50 bmg? Some legislatures argue that if terrorist get these weapons, they will use them to terrorize us, citizens of the U.S.  But the truth is, terrorist don't want big guns like the 50 at all, they've shown us exactly what kind of weapons they prefer to use against us, which are car bombs, and other cowardly acts, such as taking over airplanes with box cutters as they showed us on 9/11. I will agree that the 50 bmg really serves no purpose rather than target practice, but if target practice is what you like and you can afford to shoot such a gun, and  you are responsible, and as a free citizen, you should have that right. And I really don't think that the legislatures actually protected any of it's citizens by passing the law.

      The second amendment allows all of the U.S., citizens to keep and bare arms, yet they're are legislatures and even other countries that seem to have some interest in disarming us the american citizens. They have all kind of arguments as to why, but when I review history and see that a man like Hitler preached gun control, like he was doing it for the people of germany, I have to wonder what their motives actually are, and if gun control laws weren't passed in germany and the people disarmed, would Hitler have been able to do all the damage he done? And when  you look thru history, hitler is not the only one that used these types of controlling tactics. I am not saying all politicians who say gun control are like Hitler, I;m sure there are some of them that are mislead, and don't know any better. When looking back thru the history of humanity, (it would be nice to be able to live in peace and harmony with no violence), history seems to repeat it'self over and over and what it says is, when there is a balance of power between the citizens and their government or even governments of different nations the times will be most peaceful because of the respect for one another, but when the scales are tipped, and the government has all the power corruption will surely take over when their only threat is no more than the voice of the people.

         Gun control is not a solution for violence in a free nation, it will only be a problem. If you feel the same as I do after reading this article, then take the time to call or write your state legislatures and TELL THEM WHAT TO DO,

remember your legislatures are supposed to work for you, not the other way around!!
