Is California just gone fucking mad after newscum? What is up with all these fucked up legislations against private freedom?

    they specifically only became supportive of restrictions on personal firearms after minorities started carrying them for protection from law enforcement overreach. It was a whole thing with then-governor Ronald Reagan

    Correct. They only care about this stuff because they don't want anyone to use it on them.

    If you don't believe me, just note how basically every single weapons ban written in the US magically has an exception for law enforcement carved into it. So... We (not me, but all you Californian people) can't have, say, a butterfly knife but for some reason the cops can? What do they need it for that we don't, exactly?

    Is the last one you're referring to the age verification one? If so, you should know that was good legislation that makes it easy to block federal attempts at something far worse.
