Gun Ban Nancy Pelosi Bots Going After Ammunition Again... Gun Ban Nancy Pelosi Bots Going After Ammunition Again
SAN FRANCISCO — In taking aim at gun control in The City, one supervisor is looking into creating an ammunition registry that would make it easier to trace bullets bought and sold locally.
Supervisor Michela Alioto-Pier said she’s working with the City Attorney’s Office to craft legislation that would essentially expand on state law that monitors handgun ammunition.
“It’s to try and crack down on gun violence,” Alioto-Pier said.
She’s attempting to get around California law that currently prohibits cities from creating a gun registry. Alioto-Pier said The City could achieve the same goal with a bullet registry that’s accessible to the public.
State gun advocates say such legislation would make San Francisco a target for lawsuits — again. Last year, California passed a law intended to more closely monitor the sale of ammunition. The law prohibits ammo from being bought or sold online. And, it requires vendors to keep a log of who’s buying ammunition.
Now, the state is looking to protect those consumers with a pending bill that would keep information about ammunition sales confidential.
“San Francisco needs to look in the mirror. They like to champion themselves as civil rights advocates, but if they don’t represent what’s confirmed is a fundamental right to bear arms, they are being hypocritical,” said Chuck Michel, chief attorney for the National Rifle Association and California Rifle and Pistol Association.
San Francisco has a long history of brushing up against the NRA and gun advocates in an effort to crack down on gun control.
In 2009, The City was sued by gun advocates who challenged an ordinance that forces gun owners to either store their firearms in a locked container or disable them with trigger locks.
In 2008, the NRA and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms sued San Francisco, challenging The City’s ordinances that prohibit possession of firearms on city-controlled properties such as parks, stadiums, hospitals and recreation centers.
And in 2003, San Francisco, along with many other cities, reached a settlement with gun industry distributors and dealers to include major distribution reforms and payment.

The sad thing is, if this works in Pelosi's home district, you know she will try and get one done at the fed level.

Even when Pelosi goes, there will be a million other like her to take her place. Even if this story has any real bite to it, it is still just one of hundreds of ploys that anti-gun people will use, in the future, to try once more to enact total gun control. Sad as it my seem, I don't see them going away anytime in the near or distant future.
As long as the law-abiding 80 million and counting owners of 270 million and counting firearms in this country continue to sit on their collective arses yours is a fair assessment...
E.G.: the combined membership of the NRA, GOA, SAF and JPFO is currently less then 5 million...
WTFU SHEEPLE, its not enough that we as individuals herein are doing our respective parts; we need to educate every single existing firearm owner and potential firearm owner we come in contact with; on what our continued ignorance and neglect of the Constitution will lead to...

Yeah, I wondered how long it would take them to understand without bullets guns are paperweights.
Bottom line they can't pass a federal law faster than a few days at best. I can buy 10,000 rounds in about an hour. On second thought, maybe 20,000 would be better.

If one thinks they will buy 10-20K rds if legislation gets more serious you might reconsider your plans. Just the nobammy scare of a year ago made the shelves of ammo disappear. To farther add to that thought-when they pass their "grabber" laws ammo will be removed from all shelves overnight till store owners are allowed to sell or not sell. If you want ammo or reloading supplies you had better be busy right now building your stocks. Secondly, ammo will become one of the most sought after barterable items you can have. If you can reload and have "adequate" supplies you will be even more ahead of the game.
