Bleak Vision of Future Gun Control Becomes Reality in California
A few years ago, some folks released a video that showed how gun control laws might operate in a fictional California of the future. The video shows how State Agency pre-authorization would have to be obtained before a handgun could be employed for self-defense in the home. Sound far-fetched? Well, it turns out that this satirical video was not that far from the truth. That disturbing vision of the future is coming to pass… at least in some parts of California.
The City of Los Angeles recently passed an municipal ordinance that would require handguns to be locked up (or otherwise disabled) when kept in the home. Modeled after a similar law in San Francisco, the Los Angeles ordinance makes it a misdemeanor to keep an unsecured handgun in a home. There are some exceptions to the locking rule (such as when the owner has the firearm in “close proxmity”), but this Los Angeles ordinance still imposes onerous burdens on citizens who might need a firearm to defend themselves in their own homes.
Under the new Los Angeles city ordinance, there is no “pre-authorization” requirement — at least not yet. But that could be the next step, as this video shows…
Think about it… how can you respond to an intruder if you have to call and ask for permission to access your own firearm. How that scenario might unfold is depicted in this video, a chilling preview of gun ownership in California. The video is a dramatization, but it shows what could happen in the Golden State in the not-too-distant future.

This is what happens when anti-gun lobbyist make it all the way into powerful government positions. Every time new laws come in, that where once a freedom, suddenly become banned or restricted. You can bet it’s some individual once an active that’s made it into a government position, and quietly passed laws that they favor. We just had all but a few of our recreational fishing zones banned, which covered the entire state. The consultation the government had with fisherman was where do you guys like to fish? Well being an honest bunch they told the government, and when the legislation came out,.. Guess what, every single place the fisherman told them about was on the government banned list.
The article’s author appears to have looked at an earlier version of the then proposed law. It was revised, PRIOR to being voted into law, to allow for “or under the owner’s control” (outside a safe or other locked container).
The wording of the amending motion, “…within close enough proximity and control that the owner can readily retrieve and use the handgun as if carried on the person,”
The NRA lost my dollars when they came down with Regan and took away my fully automatic weapons without even a whimper. They don’t have the stones to undo that garbage so until they do, Wayne and his buddies can give up the private jets and limos, fly coach, and drive rentals like the rest of us schmucks. They help out the big box stores and kill the mom and pops.
California needs a severe earthquake to ensure it all falls off into the Pacific.
This is what happens when you have 80 million gun owners and less then 5 million NRA members. People like to blame the NRA when most gun owners won’t get off their FA’s and vote. I don’t blame the NRA for not supporting states like NJ and CA when they keep electing liberal democrats
Since when doesn’t the NRA support CA? If it weren’t for the NRA and CRPA we’d be so far downstream nuclear power wouldn’t help.
