Could it be, Gavin, that your ideas simply don't work?
Govt controlling the gun, instead of controlling the people who kill each other (with or without a gun), has universally failed every time it's tried.
Delivering light sentences for criminal acts, and even letting people out of jail for little or no bail because they are the wrong race, hasn't helped.
How many more people will die before you and your soft-on-crime cohorts finally get your heads out and make the connection?
A leader in gun control efforts, California confronts its limits

MONTEREY PARK, Calif. — California’s efforts to reduce gun violence have long been a point of pride among the state’s liberal lawmakers. But a sense of futility and despair infused the response of many political leaders Tuesday in the bitter aftermath of three mass shootings in as many days.
At least 19 people have been fatally shot in mass attacks since Saturday evening, when a 72-year-old gunman here opened fire inside a dance studio popular with the elderly Asian American community. Eleven people died in this city on the edge of Los Angeles, and then on Monday, two shootings in the Bay Area killed eight others.
State lawmakers have imposed mandatory waiting periods on the purchase of firearms. They have banned military-style assault rifles, one of only eights states along with D.C., to do so. The state has a “red flag” law that allows guns to be seized from people believed to be a threat. And California voters overwhelmingly approved a limit on the number of bullets allowed in a gun’s magazine, a measure caught up for years in the courts.
“What the hell is going on?” Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) said in angry remarks delivered after visiting with victims’ families in Half Moon Bay, a beach town south of San Francisco where a 66-year-old man is accused of killing seven farmworkers the previous day.

That arrogant Trudeau light would never come to that conclusion.
How are those correlated? As far as I know both shooters have zero or very light criminal pasts. Which state would either the 66 year old man or the 72 year old man be in jail and what for? What light on crime policies lead to these shootings?

These are great questions if they don't get lost in the usual "let's be outraged!" apoplectic pile-on, LOL.
He's getting angry. When lefties become angry, they become tyrants. They dwell on the idea of controlling people, and it becomes an obsession.
I wouldn't want to be hanging around in California these days with all the mental illness, violence, drugs, homeless vagrants, coupled with incompetent leadership that only knows how to pass the blame onto others for their own failed leadership. Lefties in power are their own worst enemies, and I'm afraid Newsome is going to show us why, if he actually starts making heavy handed decisions. People are generally more likely to make stupid decision when they become angry.

Dazed and confused is Gavin's normal state.
He's not confused. Remember the time he said a California city looks like a real **** hole? He is aware of what's going on. He probably even has an idea about how to correct the situation, but it wouldn't be adventitious for a 2024 presidential run...

Lol, didn't he say the same thing when the trains were being looted?
