Assemblyman Torres Takes Aim At Donnelly With Airport Ban

[Ayatollahgondola]

You all must know that Donnelly was charged with carrying a concealed weapon at an airport. One of the usual suspects in the legislature is trying to pass a bill that bans anyone from an airport if he's convicted of same:

AB 2182, as introduced, Torres. Airports: firearms: arrest.
Under existing law it is a misdemeanor to knowingly possess a
firearm within any sterile area of an airport or a passenger vessel
terminal. Existing law also generally prohibits the carrying of
concealed firearms without a permit. Existing law authorizes a peace
officer to make a warrantless arrest of a person for a violation of
the provisions of law prohibiting the carrying of a concealed firearm
when the violation occurs within an airport in an area to which
access is controlled by the inspection of persons and property.
This bill would require a peace officer to arrest a person for
violating the provisions of law prohibiting the carrying of concealed
firearms when the offense occurs within an airport, as defined, in
an area to which access is controlled by the inspection of persons
and property, and would require the peace officer to confiscate the
firearm. The bill would ban a person who is subsequently found guilty
from entering the airport, and would make it a misdemeanor to enter
the airport where the offense occurred. The bill would establish a
rebuttable presumption that the area to which access is controlled by
the inspection of persons and property begins wherever signs have
been posted notifying airport users that the possession of restricted
items is prohibited. By creating a new crime, this bill would impose
a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.

This is just another example of political bullshit.

However, Torres is diverted from the usual Sacramento agenda concerning contrived racial issues and of promoting Gay Poodle Day - anything but pragmatic sound governance including dealing with the deficit.

Where do they find these yokels?
