Which is why any ban has to be nationwide and strictly enforced.

Yep. Guns are so easy to attain, even AR-15's and handguns, that even whackos have no problem getting them and spraying their surroundings indiscriminately with lead. Ah, freedom.

Exactly why better background checks are needed.......

If this pattern keeps up it's going to force this and probably force extending it to long guns as well....

Indeed, IIRC Santa Monica is not much more than a couple hours from the Az border and maybe not even that plus, Arizona is famous how little they care about responsible gun ownership.

Awaiting spin on how registering guns all guns sold is the same or worse as taking away the rights to ownership.

Why doesn't the rest of the country see this, Fellas?

Could it be that they simply don't want to see it?

For the record, there is an agricultural inspection on CA borders.

We're stopping cows from immigrating illegally? Why would they want to come here? So they can get shot up with GMOs and growth hormones?

Nope, when entering CA there are check points at the border. They stop everyone and ask if you have fruits, vegetables and/or plants.......
