A sheriff in California is being legally forced to release sensitive information about private citizens who have a concealed carry permit.
On Monday, Sutter County Sheriff Brandon Barnes alerted citizens who have a concealed carry permit that their name, permit number, date of permit issue and expiration, is being turned over to the San Francisco Chronicle due to a public record request issued on Jan. 10, CBS13 reported.
Barnes wrote in a Tuesday letter that he personally declined turning over the information, but the Office of County Counsel advised him that he is legally obligated to turn over the information.
“The San Francisco Chronicle has not indicated why they want the information or how they intend to use the information,” Barnes added.
Copies of the letter will be sent out to the relevant concealed carry permit holders when the sheriff turns over their information.
San Francisco Chronicle Editor in Chief Audrey Cooper told CBS13 that they have no intention of releasing license holder’s names or other private information.
She added that she felt “deeply disturbed” that the sheriff would want to tell law-abiding citizens that the media have their information.

Aubrey Cooper needs her house picketed. Give the media scum a taste of their own medicine.
Simple solution. Constitutional carry. No permits. No infringements. No lists of people’s names to be published.
ping!!!!
They are counting on that.
Cali Ping!
So they are only going to give the list to their AntiFA (anti-first-amendment) thug “friends”?
If they don’t intend to release the list then why do they want it?
There was a California State Supreme Court ruling decades ago that said the permitting agencies had to release this information in order that the public can be assured the ‘discretionary system’ used by the local LEO’s were not being given exclusively to rich, well connected, campaign donors or that no racial biases were deployed in the issuance etc. In CA permits are issued by the county sheriff or the city police (but the police can refuse to issue any permits and then it falls on the sheriff).
But it is not shall issue it is may issue. The rural county sheriffs are mostly ‘shall issue’ in practice. The red counties basically only give them to the inner sanctum - judges, donors, wealthy.
So if you live in Mendicino County you can get a CCW permit, then drive into San Fran and carry legally, while San Fran residents can’t do the same. The permit issued in one county is good throughout the state. It’s a weird old system created back in the racist days when the politicians figured a discretionary system would allow them to give permits to white men and deny them to Blacks and Hispanics.

Office of County Counsel.
Free men don’t ask permission. The 2nd Amendment is your permit, if you choose to be an actual American.
Reason 10,348 that my wife and I packed up the kids and left our home state more than 10 years ago. Quit our jobs, sold our home, and moved to the Tampa Bay area.
We miss the geography (and our family and friends). Florida is beautiful at the coasts but away from the coasts it’s just flat and featureless.
But, we’d do it again in a heartbeat to escape the radical leftists ruining that beautiful state.
See my post above. It is required to be disclosed in the public interest because the issuance of a CCW is discretionary by city or county LEA.

3 more SCOTUS by the end of 2024
Looks like CA has no law restricting disclosure of this information. Too bad.
Other states recognize the security issues.
Missouri even holds CCW license information from the state or other agencies. MO county sheriff’s department issue licenses and the record is closed except for official requests from courts when an investigation seeks it. Even the highway patrol does not know on the fly...
Cool.
Time to Dox every single employee of the San Francisco Chronicle and start sending them letters........
