That would be unconstitutional. The Supreme Court of the United States already decided this in the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v Bruen case where it stated that laws cannot be created to include “sensitive places” that prohibit the possession of firearms unless there is a basis for it in the text, history, and the tradition of the 2nd Amendment when it was ratified in 1791.
In fact, most of Californias repressive gun laws will soon tumble due to this ruling.
When will you people learn that gun control laws don’t stop murders? Studies asserting this fallacy were fully debunked by a recent study done by the US DOJ.
People kill people. Guns don’t kill people. In fact, guns never go off unless a human causes them to.

So, you would like to return to the requirements for all citizens to report every month for militia training, as well? If so, I might support that.

Never go to sketchy venues hosted by fake companies with fake money.
My deepest condolences to the young man who lost his life.
Aunt Don says
Its not a sketchy venue Xalisco has been around for years. The crowd was sketchy.
