Californians Support ‘Amnesty’ For ‘High Capacity’ Magazines
BY Herschel Smith4 years, 11 months ago
A majority of Californians, including gun owners, support an “amnesty” program where high-capacity firearm magazine owners can turn them in, “no questions asked.”
More than 62 percent of Californians surveyed said that they favor such a program, which 51 percent of gun owners also said they supported.
The results, published in JAMA Network Open, come from the Violence Prevention Research Program at University of California, Davis. Researchers interpreted data from an online survey of 2,558 California adults that was conducted by Ipsos Public Affairs.
Hmm … an “online survey.” So the authors of the survey and the article want you to believe that the gun owners of California who own standard capacity magazines don’t want them, and don’t really know what to do with those plastic boxes they have in their closet? They want to “turn them in” to someone in authority.
They don’t know how to use a hacksaw and cut them into pieces. They don’t know how to start fires and burn them up, but they don’t want those things at all so they need an amnesty to turn them in.
Right …

Just more output from Wintemute’s VPRC. Wintemute has long been of the “gun ownership is a medical problem” school of thought.

@ scott s.
You are correct. This is a ‘survey’ conducted by two U.C. Davis School of Medicine women, funded and supervised by Garen Wintemute, hippie turned ‘gun violence expert’.
This is nothing but a case of garbage in, garbage out.
Fun fact: In 2018 Dr. Wintemute received a total of $427,370 in pay and benefits from the taxpayers of California.
