California's new "gun...But relax, Citizen! California's new "gun violence restraining orders" will prevent all gun violence, keep guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them, end mass shootings, and cease our dependence on fossil fuels in favor of rainbows and unicorn sprinkles.<br /><br />[/sarcasm]<br /><br />Yea, except when -- just like the Sutherland Springs shooter -- you have government officials who choose not to enforce parts of the law they find distasteful, difficult, or inconvenient. In Texas, you had EXACTLY the type of person the Lautenberg amendment was intended to stop, but the DOD chose not to report him to the FBI to be included in NICS.<br /><br />Here, you have EXACTLY the type of person the GVROs were intended to stop, AND he was served with one, but the responding officers chose not to actually SEIZE the firearms in question.<br /><br />But "one more gun law" will fix everything. Even in those rare cases when it's 100% appropriate to do so, they don't enforce most of the ones we have -- by choice, not even by lack of funding or manpower; <b>BY CHOICE!</b> -- but adding one (or one-hundred) more will do the trick. It's "common-sense and reasonable", you see.<br /><br />Right.Archerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09378629103793458871noreply@blogger.com
