Background Checks For Ammo? Could Become Law in California [View all]
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/background-checks-for-ammo-could-happen-in-californiaCalifornia voters will vote in November on whether purchasing ammunition should require a background check.
A referendum supported by California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom gained the required number of signatures to appear on the statewide ballot, according to a report from the Sacramento Bee.
“Enough massacres, death, tears, and hate – it’s time to take action and save lives,” Newsom said in a statement, according to the Bee. “The Safety for All initiative gives California voters the opportunity to keep guns and ammo out of the hands of violent, dangerous, hateful people."
The measure would also ban individuals from having magazine clips with over 10 rounds and would require ammunition dealers to be licensed.
