OK, I have followed the test area gouge for posting videos and tried every combination I can think of, and still no joy.

Any help?

Many thanks!

Not to detract from this video which shows you what we in California have endured, and what may be in store for the rest of the country, what's the secret?

That was just sad.......

That was just sad.......

I of course remember when Corwin was arrested.... very shocking. Many of us contributed money to his defense effort. The government's conduct in this was atrocious, despicable.

I post this here as a display what we may have to look forward to.

Many thanks!

what's the secret?

no problem, all you have to do is copy the url from the top of the page, the one with watch= in it and put that between the youtube quotes. Then you have to remove the www if it is there.

great video, it would be a good one to share with everyone you know.

I cannot help you with the imbed but I did watch the video - which was was terrific. Thanks for sharing it.

I wish that I could think of Senator Feinstein as misguided if she is trying to pattern a Federal bill after the CA law. She isn't. She is deliberately trying to continue a heinous deception. She is desperately in need of a glass navel - so that she can see where she is going.

Now when something happens like in this guys case, is there a way to recoup that money? What if he couldn't come up with the money in the first place, would he just rot in jail? Why did he have to pay $1000 to get his own guns back? The government should have to dishout something for all the trouble they have caused him.

I believe, but do not know for sure, that as a part of the stipulation for dismissal, Corwin was required to release claims for wrongful arrest, etc. He got his grandmother to pledge her house for the bail bondsman. He was a college kid without much resources. CalGuns.com raised a substantial sum towards his defense. I attended a dinner in LA after the case was resolved, with shooters from all over CA, which was the start of the CalGuns Foundation to defend against these abuses.

I had a pistol stolen some years ago, from my safe during a remodeling project, and thankfully the gun was retrieved a day or so later, before anything dreadful happened. Getting it back from the police was a lengthy, complicated, expensive process involving clearance from DOJ, letters, calls, appointments with detectives, they ran all the ballistics tests to see if it had been used in any crimes other than the one for possessing it in the first place. It was stolen in October, and I finally got it back from SDPD in May, without the red dot sight, but they did give me a magazine I didn't used to own.

I have been telling everybody what CA did while living there and nobody cared. I always said it will spread across our great nation and that time is upon us. We had a 4 hour class on identifying assault weapons as the system was messed up. If you didn't register the ones you had prior to that, you became a criminal. If you did, when police ran your address, it came back CODE W for registered assault weapon.

For some years, folks were afraid to show up at a range, or anything public with anything like a AR-15 or any of the other banned by make and model clones for fear of the hassle.

Then someone realized it was all nullified if you had a fixed magazine that took a tool to remove, and a tool could be a bullet, right there in the statute. The so-called "Bullet Button" was born. It's a little spring loaded doohickey that locks the magazine in, a ten round magazine (!), to be released only by pressing a small point, ball point pen, bullet tip, etc into it. It's hard to make up stuff like this! Anyway, that's what we have, can have.
