Conservative Veterans, Patriots, Gun Enthusiasts and Preppers See Police State Behaviors
Many Conservative veterans, American Oath Keeper Patriots, gun enthusiasts and preppers see the ammunition control and gun control in general as tyrannical police state behaviors.
Ammunition control, at least as it was attempted in left coast California, would require all ammunition to only be sold by FFL (Federal Firearms License]]es) controlled by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. It would ban all loaning or gifting of ammunition to a friend, colleague or family member. It would ban handloading of ammunition by gun enthusiasts. It would require an ammunition purchase license with mandatory background check for each purchase. It would ban all internet-based sales of ammunition. Despite passed almost unanimously in the left-wing Democrat controlled California State Legislature, it was surprisingly vetoed by elitist liberal gun collector Governor Jerry Brown in 2014. Governor Brown has a long history of voting for and supporting gun control. Governor Brown surprising said on his veto that ammunition control would not stop crime.
has always been absurd left wing "unicorn utopia" pollyanna fantasy of the Anti-self-defense movement, for the simple reason that criminals by their nature never follow laws.
