Coming to a town near you – LA attempts to ban ammo and reloading components

March 1st, 2012

City of Los Angeles Public Safety Committee Meeting
200 N. Main Street Room 315
Los Angeles, CA
Monday, December 6 10:00 AM
Ordinance Number 99-1581
Key provisions:
No person shall purchase, sell, give or otherwise transfer ownership of any firearm ammunition whether assembled cartridges or component parts of cartridges.
No person shall purchase, sell, give or otherwise transfer ownership of any firearm ammunition loading device.
The gun-grabbers have found a new way to take away your rights! These bureaucrats are trying to sneak around state and federal laws by denying YOU ammunition and reloading components.

First, you can’t get any ammunition at all. You can’t buy it, you can’t borrow it and you can’t make it. You’d better not have any reloading components, such as bullets, primers or powder in the City of Los Angeles, or you become one of the bad-guys. Yup, you could wind up in a jail cell with the real bad-guys because you overlooked that spent cartridge case under the sofa.

I am reminded of the hapless traveller who crossed the border into Mexico with a box of .22s and spents weeks in jail. How would the same traveller fare in Los Angeles? The thought is frightening. Sadly, an empty cartidge case that would cause a shrug of the shoulders south of the border, could send you to jail in Los Angeles. Is it possible, in the land of the free, to envy the rights of citizens in Mexico?

Finally, you can kiss your Dillon goodbye. Oh, they’ll let you keep it for awhile, but it won’t do much good without any reloading components. But when you run out of bullets, primers, powder and brass, don’t even consider giving it to your brother in Iowa, because that would be breaking the law. I suppose you could create a new table lamp with your Dillon, because that’s about all the law will let you do. On the one hand, a Dillon Lamp would be rather ugly, but on the other, it’s a sure bet that they won’t let you keep your Dillon around long enough for you to notice.

If this ordinance passes the “Safety Committee”, it will go to the full city council for a vote. I urge you to act now, in the name of sanity, to show these bureaucrats that responsible gun owners care about their rights (especially the right to vote).

Let your voice be heard!
