This will make law abiding citizens become unlawful citizens. If a gun is stolen and used to commit a crime is the reg. owner responsible for an ins. claim? If so, is the penalty to bar the owner from having a gun? If an intruder gets a homeowners gun and shoots the homeowner does the homeowner sue his own insurance? Does he still get barred from owning another? You should be cracking down on CRIMINALS who don't vote instead of restrictions on law abiding (and voting) citizens.
4. PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES Gun Harm Reduction Ordinance
If you can't see the irony in a gun tax, enforced by men with guns, then you fail to understand why the second amendment was written in the first place
4. PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES Gun Harm Reduction Ordinance
This ordinance is not fair to law abiding gun owners. I manage the Firearms unit in the local crime laboratory and the vast majority of all gun related crime is done by individuals who are already prohibited from owning firearms. This proposed ordinance is simply an unfair tax to some of the city's population and will do nothing safety related except drive good citizens out of our fine city of San Jose. Respectfully submitted.
