JERRY BROWN SWINGS BOTH WAYS

By Bob Walsh

The ever-unpredictable Governor Moonbeam again demonstrated his unpredictability today with two executive actions.

He vetoed the parole of Leslie Van Houten, one of the infamous Manson Family Girls, who has been doing life for the murder of the La Bianca’s in 1969. She was 19 when she took part in the butchery of Leno and Rosemary La Bianca.

He also signed yet another anti-gun bill. This bill requires that virtually all firearms physically located in the formerly great state of California be serially numbered. A lot of older guns, sold before the Gun Control Act of 1968, were not numbered. I own one such gun, a Winchester single shot 22 rifle. It has no great collector’s value, numbering it would not destroy any collectors value. Nevertheless I resent it.

I wonder how long it will take the DOJ to establish a system for doing this. I am fairly sure to find out.
