The ballot initiative would require background checks for ammunition and ban large-capacity magazines. I'm voting for it.

Look, the Bill of Rights includes the rights of all people, includes those who want better control of weapons. A gun control initiative on next week's ballot in California is supported by 58% of likely voters, while 35% are opposed, that's hard to ignore. And, I'm one of 'em.

When I look through voter guides and check Ballotpedia the only organized opposition to this measure are Republicans and gun groups. That's all I need to know. Yes, we live in constitutional democracy where the majority rules and the minority still have rights. Most people with still be able to buy guns, as is their right.
