Center tried to claim that Barrett Firearms had sold .50 caliber sniper rifles to Usama bin
Laden. Not many in the media bought this, which was a good thing since it turned out
that those rifles had actually been sold to the United States Government.

If the democRats ever get control again, expect more anti-gun laws. Look at Kalif, they get block voted in, and then state their anti-gun agenda

Chaingun is right, the Democrats passed a bill recently to license gun owners shows that gun control is super high on their agenda. The state's finances are in disarray because of our electrical energy debacle caused by the legislature is not even a slight distraction.

California is becoming increasingly isolated from the rest of the US. Some of the laws they have passed recently are sure to run afoul of the Justice Department- as soon as they can get away from dealing with antrhax.
California is heading for a smack down in the courts rather similar to what the States of the Deep South got over segragation in the 1960's, it is so far out of step with the rest of the country.
Their popularity has been sinking as their has been a rather noticable LACK of enthusiasm for cooperating with the war effort in California amongst high profile persons living in the state (ie most of hollywood, and most UC students and professors). The National Media do them a big favor by ignoring them most of the time.
So what happens in Californias Legislature for once does NOT have the implication of being a precursor for the rest of the nation. It does have the implication for giving us the court cases that would Hang the gun control movement for good.
