The state of California cannot mandate the public release of personal information on gun owners, according to a judge’s ruling late last week.
San Diego Superior Court Judge Katherine Bacal in San Diego County issued an injunction against California’s Assembly Bill 173, ruling that by allowing the law to remain in effect while it was being challenged in court unconstitutionally risks the privacy rights of California gun owners.
“Accordingly, plaintiffs have shown that the balance of harms weighs in favor of issuing the injunction,” she noted in her order.
The Reload reports:
The injunction represents a win for gun-rights advocates in their fight against the state’s attempts to share gun owners’ identifying information for outside research. The state already collects extensive data on gun and ammunition purchases–including an ammo registry. California’s practices make it an outlier, but one with the potential to be copied by other blue states seeking tighter gun laws. The successful injunction suggests advocates may be successful in permanently stopping the state from sharing that data with non-law enforcement entities and quash the potential for other states to follow California’s lead.
Assembly Bill 173, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom (D.) last September, directed the Attorney General to disclose personal information on gun purchasers to the California Firearm Violence Research Center at UC Davis. The information includes details such as the buyer’s name, address, date of birth, what they purchased, when and where they bought it, and more. It also authorized the center to share the information with any other “bona fide research institution.”

Which, of course, means anything they want it to.
Another decision foretelling the complete collapse of the white, racist power structure in California.
The Mexicans have racially cleansed entire communities of blacks. The Mexicans are coming after BLM’s white handlers next.
I think there should be release of all personal information of judges and all politicians. Maybe info on teachers and school board members.

Methinks in the not too distant future, there will be. It’s going to be delightful to watch, but will not be fun for the above mentioned.
Now that is a reason to stock up on popcorn.
Zimbabwe comes to mind
Throw in slip and fall lawyers and I’m on board.
Any of them who have firearms will hav3e their names, addresses, phone numbers, DL numbers, etc on the list. It might be interesting to see which anti-gun politicians and judges have firearms.
Is what you say above good or bad?
I wish these judges would start holding officials responsible
for trying to kill our rights.
California has about 60 present and past people I’d like to
behind bars for an extended period.
I’m saying this for legislation the have voted on that
infringed on our rights.
Newsome keeps revealing his multiple personalities. They are MARXIST dictator; fascist dictator; megalomaniac; and presidential wannabe candidate.
Oh, I forgot - an existential threat to America.
“It might be interesting to see which anti-gun politicians and judges have firearms.”
As if they would’ve got them legally. Their names won’t be on any list.
Sounds really good but I think that folks like judges, mayors, council people, legislators, etc will be exempt (for their safety don’t ya know?). That’s their MO.
Fat lady will not sing until appeals are exhausted.
