CA city bans guns in private homes unless locked up, disabled<\/a><\/p>\n

Gun owners in Dublin, Calif., are banned from keeping firearms in private homes unless they are kept in a locked container or disabled with a trigger lock after the City Council unanimously approved the new regulation last week.<\/p>\n

Pleasanton Weekly reported that the ordinance goes farther than existing California laws that apply if children live in a household or if a member of a household is prohibited from having guns. It goes into effect next month.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we\u2019re doing in this case is just expanding that definition beyond those two scenarios \u2014 children in the home or criminal record \u2014 and applying it to all households,\u201d said City Manager Linda Smith.<\/p>\n

The ordinance will be added to the Dublin Municipal Code, stating, \u201cNo person shall keep a firearm within any residence unless the firearm is stored in a locked container or disabled with a trigger lock.\u201d<\/p>\n

Exceptions to the ordinance include when a gun is being lawfully carried or when it is in the control of a law enforcement officer.<\/p>\n

According to councilmember Shawn Kumagai, the regulation \u201cwill state clearly to our community that we embrace a culture of gun safety\u201d and \u201csafe gun storage helps to prevent unintentional and intentional injury and death of minors, helps prevent gun suicide, and deters gun theft.\u201d<\/p>\n

Twenty-two cities across California have implemented similar regulations, including Oakland, Berkeley, Moraga and Sunnyvale.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not about taking gun rights away from people at all whatsoever, it\u2019s about educating, it\u2019s about making sure that we do our part, and have an awareness out there,\u201d said Councilmember and mayor-elect Melissa Hernandez.<\/p>\n

Hernandez said she believed in \u201cnot only just saying it but actually doing something,\u201d adding that the city may provide trigger locks for residents, in addition to potentially granting funding for public gun safety awareness.<\/p>\n

Prior to voting for the new regulation, Councilmember Arun Goel said gun safety was an issue he held \u201cnear and dear to my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n

Goel said his son committed suicide, adding that education is needed but \u201cpart of what I\u2019ve always been about is, when we take an action of such a nature, it should be for the fundamentally correct things, not just for stipulation of trying to do something perfunctory or lip service.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSystematically I agree with it, and so I\u2019m kind of in a little bit of a confusion standpoint,\u201d Goel said. \u201cWe can agree on safety but in the reality, how much of these are issues from lawful gun owners vs. unlawful gun owners.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
