California: Carson passes ammo sales restrictions

Carson has become the latest city to pass an ordinance restricting the sale of ammunition, prompting an attorney for the National Rifle Association to threaten to sue. The ordinance, which was passed unanimously and with little debate Tuesday night, would apply to two stores in the city: Big 5 Sporting Goods and Kmart. The stores will now be required to get permits to sell ammunition, and collect the name, address and thumbprint of each customer who buys it.
