California State Legislators are at it again

The knuckleheaded do-gooders in the California State Legislature are at it again, trying to pass more "good intention" bills, which will have dire consequences on that state's economy, and in other areas, if passed. Oh, and it wouldn't surprise me one bit if the knuckleheaded do-gooder legislators in Washington State will soon try to follow suit and try to enact similar legislation.

In this article in the Washington Times, we learn that the California State Legislature is trying to pass a couple of bills requiring gun and ammunition manufacturers to laser-imprint their products with tracking numbers to "assist" local law enforcement to track down guns used in crimes, and their owners. This is just wrong, wrong, wrong knuckleheadedness.

As stated in the article, enacting this legislation will do the following -

• Destroy the ammunition manufacturing industry in California, costing lost jobs and tax revenues;
• Cause normally law-abiding people who want to legally purchase guns and ammunition to do so out of state, also resulting in lost jobs and tax revenues;
• Cost both the State and Federal governments money so that civilian police departments and the military can practice shooting - something inherently vital to the protection of the citizenry. What good are cops and/or soldiers who can't hit what they're shooting at?

What it won't do is keep criminals from obtaining guns and ammunition, contrary to what Sen. Diane Feinstein says.
