McCarthyism Achieved..."Are You Now...Or Have You Ever Been An NRA Member...?"

[glocktogo]

Agree with OP, this is straight up McCarthyism. 14-0 and the city attorney said they're "on firm legal ground"? They are certifiably insane.

In my opinion firearms manufacturers need to stop selling guns in California period, no exceptions. They should stop selling to all government agencies or law enforcement personnel until these anti-gun policies and laws are reversed.

and NY and Illinois and Oregon and Washington a few other states
been saying this for a while

Seems like an obvious violation of the first amendment, but I'm not a lawyer. If they can discriminate on contract bidders, can I discriminate when hiring employees? Are you a member of the NRA or GOA? No? Next please..

That would solve nothing. Every officer I know already has a safe full of guns. Even if stopping every avenue of getting a new gun was physically possible, they'd just use the ones they already have. Not to mention that you'd be hurting millions of your gun owning allies and putting innocent members of the public at great risk of harm.

How about we just put a stop to ALL state laws, local ordinances, and any other government BS everywhere in the country that violate 2A and infringes on anyone's constitutionally protected birthrights?

Don't forget. This crap is coming to every state. Texas is already purple and due to the number of electoral votes and your proximity to the border, the Dems are pushing hard to gain control of YOUR state the same way they gained control of MY state. You want your local PD carrying Lorcins and Ravens when the bad guys come knocking on your door? Or your mother's door? I don't. I don't want that for you and yours, and I don't want it for me and mine because some asshole politicians are getting away with violating our Constitution.

So much this.

Besides, CA gov would probably just figure out a way to buy direct from overseas anyway if it came down to brass tacks.

The left is evolving/modifying their tactics. We better do the same. The "just move" and "don't sell" when it comes to state level BS just does not cut it anymore when the walls are closing in.

The landscape is changing, and any individual, political/gun rights group that does not recognize this needs to take a knee, drink some water and reassess.

They are in this game for the long haul.

I have a problem with the patch, as it stands today.

Having said that, I will say it very clear if we do not learn the lesson of what the socialist did to Germany under Hitler and all of us commit to doing every thing to defeat the socialist in America we all will suffer.

I can certainly understand your point of view regarding the patch, it is something I bought without really thinking about the history. I used to have that patch in a visible place in my truck, but have since removed it as I'm sure people who saw it had similar mixed emotions.

So that I understand, the issue would be that the in Germany, Jews were made to wear big yellow stars of David as identifiers. So you have a mixed message? If it were a blue Star of David (that is the color on the flag)- that would be, pardon the phrase, kosher?

A blue star would lose it's meaning, people would simply assume the person is a jewish gun owner. The yellow star implies persecution as a second class or non citizen.

But you are thinking with a clear, logical mind. Remember the demented Left believes the First Amendment only applies to those that agree with them. Christians, gun owners, Conservatives, etc... need not apply.
