Since i've been expressing my opinion lately, here's another one:

I have some family members who are LEO's in California. A few months ago I learned the following in regards for them to acquire standard capacity magazines:

- They have to get a signed letter of authorization by their department chief. (Good luck with that)
- They have to pay for them out of their own pockets. The department will not reimburse them.
- If/when they leave the department, the magazines stay with the department.

I don't mind saying, I think that's one of the biggest crock of excrement I have ever heard. I had no idea about any of this. I thought a cop could acquire whatever they needed in order to do their job, but that simply isn't so given the particulars involved. It's bad enough Calfornia restricts the citizenry's right to self defense, but the hoops cops have to jump through is ridiculous.
