This bill just furthers California’s continued (idiotic) approach of going soft on crime, which started with AB 109, followed by Prop 47, and most recently topped off with Prop 57.

Basically, they are sending law-abiding citizens a giant middle finger, all while feeling sympathy for criminals who use firearms while committing a felony.
These same Democrats who do everything possible to deny law-abiding citizens their 2nd Amendment rights to protect themselves from criminals are now doing what they can to aid and abet those very same criminals.
