This is what happens when you buy a gun in Los Angeles

[Melkiper]

I know its from a strange source but can you believe what this guy got in the mail. Bought a Gun, Got a Letter from the Attorney General, page 1

**** that, how is that legal?

 

[Melkiper]

I mean where does it stop? Are they gonna send us yearly reminders not to shoot anyone or use our firearms in crimes? How about monthly reminders? Weekly?

Just a whole bunch of crap

 

[slap shot]

More of a reminder of "we know where you are and that you have a gun"

I'm surprised that the letter didn't ask him to hold the gun up to his telescreen so they could verify that he still had it and hadn't transferred it to anyone.

This is no different than the pink/yellow gun safety handout most gun shops in MA give you per Martha. Some even tell you that you have to sign a form saying you received it and will comply.

 

[Kid Presentable]

letting him know that they are "allowing" him to own a firearm...unbelievable, makes me sick to my stomach

 

[MAGG]

thats some major horse s**t there

 

[falcon123]

Da love letter. When you care enough to send the very best.

 

[Cabin Fever]

Does Newton, MA still quiz license applicants on the details of MA law? I recall an applicant being asked to define a "large capacity" weapon, or something similar.

SEND IT BACK WITH THE WORDS '' BLOW ME '' WRITTEN ACROSS IT IN BLACK MARKER.

F*ck LA/California/Feinstein all of em!

 

[soloman02]

This is far worse that mentioned here. The letter was sent two days after he passed the background check. The letter explicitly states: 'Records show that you have recently purchased a firearm."

They mailed it to his ****ing house letting him know that they, the city DA knows he bought a gun.

How ****ed up is that!!!

SMH

 

[codenamepaul]

Send it back **ck you very much.

 

[WallHack]

You guys didn't get one?

 

[Dressed to Kill]

I would send it back full of bullet holes

I like this response.

Well, I agree that it is insulting, but the fact that in CA they know who what when and where is nothing new. There was an article recently about letters being sent out during waiting periods to discourage straw purchases. I think that one was different than this one, but I'm not sure.

Don't we have bigger things to be worried about and get worked up over nowadays?

I mean if I responded to everybody who insulted me on this forum.... ;-) lol

LOL That'd clearly be a threat...
...in their eyes.

I see an opportunity for Hallmark.

Yeah, but if we don't start pushing back when our rights get infringed, the beating will continue.

Yeah, but if we don't start pushing back when our rights get infringed, the beating will continue.

LOL but there must be a better way to fight back than a self-incriminating letter, privately sent, then spending time in jail and becoming a PP all at once.
