# Margaret Talev at The Sacramento Bee - Rifle ban signed by governor - Current owners of .50 BMG rifles are directed to register them. I used this online form to send the Governator the following message: [lrtdiscuss] Arnold, I read in the on-line edition of the Sacramento Bee that you signed AB50, banning .50 BMG rifles and ammunition in California. I thought you were a decent human being, and now I discover that you're nothing but a girly-man. Shame on you, sir. Shame. -Bill St. Clair [End the War on Freedom] I don't have such a rifle (too expensive and heavy for me), but if I did I certainly wouldn't register it. I'm not at all surprised that Schwartzenegger signed it. It was obvious during the campaign that he was just another liberal running as a Republican--something we have in abundance in California. I was annoyed at the time (and still am) at the idiots who claimed to be conservatives who voted for him and not McClintock, who was genuinely conservative. I didn't vote for him either (because he was genuinely conservative), but if he was in office he would have vetoed the ban. 1:01:57 PM    comment () My new PC Laptop, a Micron Transport T2200, arrived yesterday ahead of schedule. I've been getting it set up, and so far I'm impressed with the design. It's more solidly built than my Pismo, despite being the same weight. The keyboard has a good feel, and the screen is nice and large. The only flaw is an awkward design of the trackpad buttons--a flaw shared by the TiBook. The Pismo has the best button design I've seen. 10:17:00 AM    comment ()
