'There is no principle way the US Supreme Court cannot uphold this California law... it is quite literally modeled after the law they just upheld in Texas,' Newsom said.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A new bill in California would allow private citizens go after gun makers in the same way Texas lets them target abortion providers.

"If Texas can use a law to ban a woman's right to choose and to put her health at risk, we will use that same law to save lives and improve the health and safety of the people in the state of California," Newsom said at a news conference Friday.Texas and other conservative-led states have tried for years to ban abortions once a heartbeat is detected, at around six weeks of pregnancy, which is sometimes before the person knows they are pregnant.

That decision incensed Newsom and his Democratic allies in the state Legislature. California has banned the manufacture and sale of assault weapons for decades. But last year, a federal judge overturned that ban. The law is still in place while the state appeals the decision. "Our message to the United States Supreme Court is as follows: What's good for the goose is good for the gander," said Democratic state Sen. Bob Hertzberg, the author of the proposal."I look forward to rushing a new bill to the governor's desk to take advantage of that United States Supreme Court guidance."

I support this

Well let’s see… which one is protected by the Constitution?🤔 notquitethesame

Maybe we do not need a governor if we will have to court to enforce the law. Maybe we need to start suing the government for creating laws to do not enforce them and ask citizens to do their jobs. Why are we paying taxes to support them?

Is he a lawyer

Fact check: True.

The bigger question is whether CA citizens can sue soft-on-crime judges & D.A.s who refuse to enforce CA's EXISTING gun laws--often with tragic results.

You have to appreciate the self-own by CA Democrats. There are 45 TIMES more lives lost to abortion each year in CA than from ALL gun deaths. Gun deaths in CA (suicide, homicide, accident): 2,945 Abortions in CA: 132,680 (2017)

2A vs… don’t worry I’ll wait. I saw a Discovery show and they had a blue whale on film pooping and it wasn’t as big as newsom.

Super cool

Playing a Cheap Dictator with no Class

TruthSocial drops on Monday

Didn’t read the article but California needs more gun owners! Cops and criminals can’t be the only ones carrying!

So, if you play with your gun and shoot it, six weeks later you can claim “it’s not mine!”? 😥😜

Remind of the abortion amendment. I forget the number.

😂😂😂😂😂 this guy is too funny.

Oh sure except the 2nd amendment of the US constitution so no difference whatsoever. This guy.

Newsom said, 'Every industry is held liable when people are hurt or killed by their products.' Why aren't alcohol & wine companies liable for drunk driving accidents?

Bull. Next is Ford GM and makers of knives, bats, and hammers snd shovels. People do these crimes not objects

He's lost his mind. The ban itself is illegal. Therefore anybody enforcing it is a criminal and a threat

And people still voted for this clown after a recall 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Sure there is. He is conflating the 2A with abortion. Guess which one is in the Constitution?

Spite laws

Gavin is not as bright as he thinks he is. This new gimmick he’s running violates an individual second amendment right. The one in Texas did not violate and constitutional rights.

Just in time for midterm. Boom !

THIS ASS NEEDS TO GO , ADIOS NOV 2022 👋🏻👋🏻

What a fuck

Can I sue the governor if I’m attacked by a homeless junky?
