Just because Calguns.net is down doesn't mean we stop calling!!
We have the info right here!
URGENT!!!
CALL, FAX or EMAIL GOV.BROWN TODAY!!
Below is a complete list of the bills passed today [6/30], Governor Brown has said he will look at and sign or veto them TOMORROW!
Call, fax and email him TODAY and urge him to VETO ALL OF THEM!!
AB 1664 (Levine & Ting): AB 1664 would extend the definition of an assault weapon to include all semi-automatic rifles and pistols with a removable magazine and that use “bullet button”. For example, an AR-15 would be included in this.
AB 1673 (Gipson): AB 1673 would take the definition of a firearm and extend to it include any unfinished frames or receivers that can be converted into a weapon. This bill could make any object that is associated with a firearm subject to the same regulations that apply to firearms.
AB 1674 (Santiago): AB 1674 would add to the current restrictions that are placed on an individual in regards to how many firearms they can purchase in a 30 day period. Current law states that only one handgun can be purchased in this time period but if this legislation is passed, long guns would fall under this restriction as well.
AB 1695 (Bonta): AB 1695 would require the Attorney General to send individuals a pamphlet regarding all firearm laws, how to safely store your weapon, and gun trafficking. This measure would result in wasteful government spending as criminals will not be receiving these pamphlets, only law-abiding gun owners who are already aware of this information.
AB 2607 (Ting): AB 2607 would allow an employer, coworker or mental health worker to file a restraining order on an individual to keep them from owning a gun. This individual would not be allowed to defend themselves until 21 days later. In this time, they would have their right to bear arms stripped from them, regardless if the claims were true or not..
SB 1235 (De León): SB 1235 requires background checks for ammunition purchasers, licenses to sell ammunition, and collection of sale information. Restrictions on ammunition purchases, creates a DOJ database of ammunition owners. Bans internet / out of state ammunition purchase.
SB 880 (Hall, Glazer): SB 880 redefines assault weapons to encompass specified guns capable of accepting any type of detachable magazine. Bans common and constitutionally protected firearms that have magazine locking devices.
SB 1446 (Hancock): SB 1446 prohibits the possession of magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. Confiscation of lawfully acquired, standard capacity magazines that can hold over 10 rounds.
SB 894 (Jackson): SB 894 requires the reporting of a lost or stolen gun within 5 days of when a person knows or reasonably should have known of the theft or loss. Victimizes victims by criminalizing the failure to report lost and stolen firearms.

I just sent him an email (I wrote it hastily, but hopefully I said everything I needed to say)
Governor Brown,
I am writing you to urge you to veto all gun control legislation that has reached your office. Law abiding gun owners are already being punished enough with arbitrary legislation designed with a bias against people who enjoy this hobby/right. As a law-abiding citizen, it is becoming increasingly difficult to continue following these nonsensical laws, and every time similar legislation gets signed into law I become a criminal if I don't change my ways to fit the gun-control-zealots' agenda. Please consider a veto on all gun control legislation currently under your consideration. Thank you.

Just sent the email via his site. Constant busy signal on the phone (no surprise there).

Apparently JB already says he's planning to sign some and veto some. Typical Jerry. Spin the roulette wheel, red = veto, black = sign.
