Gun prohibition is so unpopular in America that only three jurisdictions have it: Washington D.C, Chicago and San Francisco. And in all three cases, elite liberal opinion could impose it knowing the electorate had no means of overturning it. Americans don't mind common sense gun regulation but telling them they can't keep a gun meets with nearly universal resistance. Let's hope the SCOTUS considers that as it takes up
Heller next year.

I don't believe that San Francisco has any gun prohibition more serious than the entire state of Kalifornia. If they have passed some recently, it will meet the same fate; being struck down since there is pre-emption regarding gun laws in Kalifornia. Only the Kalifornia legislature and governor are allowed to infringe the right to keep and bear arms.
