Confiscation of Guns in California: (Lil) There are several news stories of agents confiscating guns in CA following the new laws. Here is the most recent one I found: The lady in this story had been found incompetent to have firearms and had been ordered to relinquish them to authorities. She did not do so, and state APPS (Armed Prohibited Persons Systems) agents went to her home to request she hand over her gun. She said she gave it to her uncle. If the agents think a person is lying, they will request a warrant and lock down the house and conduct a search.
This May the Governor signed Senate Bill 140 into law that appropriated $24M of state funds from the DROS (Dealer Record of Sales) funds to increase manning to support the APPS follow up and confiscation of gun from people who are not supposed to have them due to their criminal record, mental state, etc. Many are fighting this law, saying it was unconstitutional to appropriate these funds for this purpose.
Sharpie – I recently did a video on a guy named Michael R. Weisser who is an anti gun, gun shop owner. He writes articles for the Huntington post that are anti gun

User feedback and user questions

Message: Howdy,

I originally tuned into you show because I thought it was about Hooting. I figured you folks were into owls like I am and finally someone was doing a show about the under rated owl. With a name like We likes Hooting how could you go wrong. Everything is about eagles, a musical group, Steve Miller wants to fly like one, and a football team. I\’m not on Facebook so I can\’t likes anything.

I do find your podcasts entertaining and sometimes informative even though you don\’t give a hoot about owls. Why Lil puts up with your owl droppings I will never know.

A Colorado Native now living in Washington, I\’m sadden by how fast it went from a red to a blue one. It just goes to show what happens when you let your guard down even for a minute.

Spotted Owl, stuffing, sweet potatoes and cranberry makes a great substitute for turkey if you aren\’t able to bag one this year.

KYPD,

Rocky

Happy Thanksgiving

I also want to give a shout out to listener Steve D. for being the most clever and enterprising fella around. So check this out. In a previous episode I talked about buying the M&P PRO and couldn’t get the magazines because of Colorado’s stupid new law. He contacted my dealers at Fighting Chance Firearms and asked if they would sell them to him out of state. I mean, that dude is paying attention. I had to decline as I was planning to ship them to a friend anyway, but was seriously impressed. Thanks for listening Steve, I’ll buy you a beer if we ever cross paths to make up for the magazines. Thanks to Christina and Josh at Fighting Chance Firearms as well. Great folks!

We appreciate the feedback and Savage1r offered to give lessons on how to hide your identity.
