Senate bill (SB) 53, which already has passed the Senate, would require California residents to register themselves with the state, undergo a background check, get fingerprinted, and pay a state fee just to buy a box of bullets.
“SB 53 would require the purchasers of ammunition to register with the state Department of Justice (DOJ) prior to purchasing any ammunition,” a press release from the NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action noted. Purchasers would be required to pay for the fingerprinting and the background check.
The bill states, “This bill would require the Attorney General to also maintain copies of ammunition purchase permits, information about ammunition transactions, as specified, and ammunition vendor licenses, as specified, for those purposes.”
Another Assault On Gun Rights
Supporters say the purpose of the law is to prevent individuals in the DOJ’s Prohibited Persons File from buying ammunition. Prohibited persons include felons, the mentally ill, and persons with restraining orders against them. Another bill in the California state legislature, AB 1014, would allow judges to issue a gun restraining order that could effectively put any citizen in the Prohibited Persons File, as Off The Grid Newspreviously reported. That bill deals with the mentally ill.
“Under existing law, a person who is prohibited from owning or possessing a firearm is prohibited from owning, possessing, or having under his or her custody or control, any ammunition or reloaded ammunition,” the text of legislation states.
Senate Bill 53 was sponsored by state Senator Kevin de Leon (D-Los Angeles), the president pro tem.
De Leon has a long history of supporting gun control legislation. In January De Leon introduced a bill that would ban plastic “ghost guns” that cannot be picked up by metal detectors and would restrict the manufacture of homemade weapons in California.

Did I say I saw this one coming?
This is a post from Kim Delgado so I stole it———–My fellow countrymen and women. Yesterday after the Supreme Court slapped Obama in the face, his reply was to slap the American people in the face. His snide, arrogance is going to be his undoing. Remember, 65% of the American public considers themselves Conservative. 25% consider themselves Liberals and the remainder are on the fence.
Obama has declared openly , war against the American people. He is a criminal. He will go down in the history books as the biggest fraud ever perpetrated against this nation. Benedict Arnold did nothing in comparison to this total waste of humanity, Barack Obama.
He is getting tons of help from both parties in DC and the media is just as guilty in all this. They all need to be taken out and removed from their positions. There is a war happening within these borders. Oath keepers, III%, American Patriot movement, what is it going to take for you to really get some skin in the game? We need every able bodied red blooded American to answer the call. This CAN be done peacefully and without bloodshed. It only takes people in the streets standing up against it. Millions need to take a stand right now. Millions need to be a Founding Father. We need millions of George Washington’s and Thomas Payne’s, and Paul Revere’s. If George Patton were alive, he’d be out there. Bank on it. Martin Luther King would have never gone along with this sham on the American people. The time has arrived. It needs to be done peacefully. Now is the time. Lady Liberty is standing in New York harbor, wondering when we will save her. Answer the call. Save the country. There is no choice. Slavery or Freedom. They are now the only choices. Choose wisely. BUT STAND! FEEL FREE TO REPOST!
