Weapon owners: Review new gun control laws

It was announced in July that Gov. Jerry Brown had signed nine new gun control bills.

Among the new laws: force law-abiding citizens to purchase permits to buy ammunition and force the surrender of legally purchased magazines.

There are nine petitions to veto these laws circulating right now. I urge responsible gun owners who are registered to vote to review the nine new gun control laws.

Seek out and sign these petitions if you feel your interests are not being served.

D.P. Miles, Clovis
