I feel sorry for those who live in that state. Hawaii is gettin close. Don't let it happen here. 

"Page Not Found"

But I do not doubt any insanity from that diseased cesspool, I lived there through the decay from Reagan to what it was six years ago.  Almost all due to out of state (east coast) influx destroying the traditional values.  Boxer, Pelousy, and Feinstein are not Californians, if you did not know that.

Fixed the link. I'm not surprised. I know California's Senator Yee is a gun hating liberal.

 From the bill:

This bill would, commencing July 1, 2013, and with certain
exceptions, prohibit any person from importing, making, selling,
loaning, transferring, or possessing any conversion kit, as defined,
designed  solely and exclusively  to convert certain
firearms with a fixed magazine into firearms with the capacity to
accept a detachable magazine and other features making the firearm an
assault weapon and would make violations subject to criminal
penalties.

From the ILA article:

SB 249, as amended, would make a small but profound change to the definition of what constitutes a detachable magazine for a semiautomatic firearm.  By doing so, hundreds of thousands of semi-automatic rifles, which were legally sold in California over the last decade, would become illegal on July 1, 2013.

Am I missing something here?  What  rifles that are now legal would become illegal?

What's this "small change" they're talking about? I'm too tired to search right now...

I read the bill, and all I could find is the part above.  I'm not even sure what a "conversion kit" to change a fixed magazine rifle into one taking a detachable magazine actually is.   I didn't see any wording changing the definition of "detachable magazine", and nothing at all about changing what rifles are legal.  Not to defend the current California law, but this sounds like an attempt to make modifying a legal rifle into an illegal one illegal.

I don't get it either

crazycat, where did you get that hello kitty picture? I was thinking about putting something like that on my car because my daughter likes hello kitty.
Also thinking of one that said "Defend hello kitty"

Sorry about the broken link. The problem with the bill is that it doesn't really say what the conversion kit is supposed to be.

FAQ here.

As we know, these types of open ended laws open the door for major abuse on citizens rights. 
Practically anything could cause their already neutered 'assault weapons' to be considered confiscatable.

eye,

I seem to recall one dude who does quarterly runs of Kalashnakitty t-shirts and decals on one of the AK forums.

Those are the "authentic- looking" ones.

There are also some knockoff decals (hahaha, knockoffs of knockoffs!) floating around on militiapress.

Always amazes me that Sanrio's attorneys haven't shut this guy down for infringement, but I guess he could always assert the "parody" defense.

i saw one yesterday, i think it was from comic-con, that said "halo kitty" and had kitty-chan in a master chief suit

aloha

Dave at Mojo tactical (OGC lobby) carries some tactical hello kitty patches.

Thanks, I will check OGC.
I will check the web but any links would be much appreciated.

I suppose I could always go to a sticker maker for a basic sticker saying "defend kitty" with the kitty head

I guess it could make bullet buttons illegal? I remember seeing a YouTube video of Senator Yee saying he wanted to make those illegal.

Big time anti gun bills.
If you have friends and family in Calif. let them know.
