I wish you nothing but the very best of luck. Between Sacremento and the 9th Circus? You may well need all the good luck you can get...

There certainly is an issue with the 9th Circus.

They were recently able to get rid of the Nordyke case after Alameda County basically caved on their prior stance that there was no way to have a gun show at the Alameda County fairgrounds with guns present. As a result, the 9th Circus didn't have to deal with the Second Amendment.

It's not going to be so easy for them to dispose of the other cases waiting for their attention. The Heller decision described keeping and bearing arms as a "fundamental right". This is powerful language. The McDonald case clarifies that the prohibition against infringements applies to states and localities.

Virtually all the claims that Kalifornia might make that there exist compelling reasons for their various infringements collapse in the light of the fact that so many states have no problem whatsoever providing "shall issue" carry permits, have no problem with allowing sales of rifles with pistol grips, have no problem with instant background checks. It's going to be a hard sell for the anti-gunners.
