George Soros’s Son
Dumps $100,000 Into California Ammo Control Efforts

Democratic mega-donor
Alexander Soros has given $100,000 to support the “yes” campaign on a
California ballot measure that would ban possession of large-capacity
magazines, require the California Department of Justice to maintain a list of
all residents authorized to purchase ammunition and would prohibit
Californians from purchasing ammo without first obtaining the authorization of
the California Department of Justice.
Even though he is a New York
resident, Soros — the son of left-wing financier George Soros — is one of the
top 10 biggest donors behind the “yes” campaign on Proposition 63, according to
the California Fair Political Practices Commission.
If passed, the ballot would ban
the possession of large-capacity ammunition magazines, regardless of when they
were purchased. Current California law already bans the possession of such
magazine but has an exemption for magazines purchased before the year 2000.
Prop. 63 would also
require all ammo purchasers to first obtain a $50 permit from the
California DOJ. The state government would also be required to keep tabs on who
is or isn’t authorized to purchase ammunition.
“The Department shall create
and maintain an internal centralized list of all persons who
are authorized to purchase ammunition and shall promptly remove from the
list any persons whose authorization was revoked by the Department
pursuant to this section,” the ballot measure
states.
“The Department
shall provide access to the list by ammunition vendors for purposes of
conducting ammunition sales or other transfers, and shall provide access
to the list by law enforcement agencies for law enforcement purposes.” (RELATED: Leaked Soros Memo:

Both Alex and George Soros
are big Hillary Clinton donors. The two have combined to give more than $10
million to pro-Clinton superPAC Priorities USA, according to the Center for
Responsive Politics.
Alex Soros even privately
dined with Tim Kaine soon after Clinton tapped Kaine as her running mate. (RELATED: Hillary Takes In Three

His father, George Soros, has
bankrolled several prominent liberal projects (including Black Lives
Matter and Planned Parenthood) through his pet organization, Open Society
Foundations, in an attempt to secure favorable political outcomes.(RELATED: Leaked Board
