That line of thinking is why so many millions of people chose to live in other places  |

Why don’t they just give the bad guys black hats and the good guys white hats?...It'll make more sense... 
All air guns in Dayglo white,orange,or yellow?.... 
But wait!...It'll make California safer......   |

Personally, I think they should take guns away from all the good guys and give guns to the bad guys. Oh wait, that's what they're trying to do.
I wonder if this is for new sales only, or if it will include currently owned guns. This story says guns "made" in bright colors. So, perhaps its for new guns only.
Also, will they be defining WHAT colors are appropriate? Some might consider brown or black a "bright" color.
The link only leads to a list of names. Here is another link to the story.

Senate approves LAPD bill on BB guns

The state Senate on Monday approved a measure requested by the Los Angeles Police Department to require BB guns to be made in bright colors so that police officers do not mistake them for real firearms.
The legislation was opposed by Republican senators who said it goes too far in regulating personal conduct.
"Clearly this is over the top," said Sen. Ted Gaines (R-Roseville) "We’ve got to draw the line somewhere for gun rights, and we can start with BB guns."
Sen. Joel Anderson (R-San Diego) sarcastically questioned whether the state would extend the requirement to sticks, which he said are also used by children pretending to have guns and might be mistaken in the dark for the real thing.
But Sen. Kevin De Leon (D-Los Angeles) said his bill is needed to protect children and law enforcement officers from situations in which a BB gun is mistaken for a real gun.
De Leon cited several incidents throughout California, including one in December in which an LAPD officer shot a 13-year-old boy who was carrying a pellet gun in Glassell Park.
SB 798 next goes to the Assembly for consideration.

| If they are worried about cops shooting 13 year olds then maybe they should spend the money going towards the bill on better training for their officers. I hope the rest of the country isn't plagued by such idiocracy |

| California - I've heard of it. Isn't that the state where they want to disarm ordinary people, and yet the governor owns his own tank? |

| They need to make it illegal for crooks to paint their guns bright colors. |

| Joe, it's that way here in ohio too. I have the two everyone and their brothers and sisters own here a .22 and a 12 ga. shotgun with a deer barrel. lol It's kind of funny that just about everybody has a gun rack in their pickup trucks. I also have a 30.06, but I can't hunt in-state with that. It's just a target gun here. |
