Lets make sure SCUMBAG AWE KNEE is gone first. That SOB laughing-stock made millions with guns and one of his first acts as governator was to ban all 50 cal Barrets which hurt a lot of people with 50’s that shot in clubs by making their guns illegal, just like the UGLY BLACK gun ban did. All through this thread I see people using the term ASSAULT WEAPON BAN. They have been banned unless registered with the FEDS since the 30’s. As a former Vietnam Era veteran that carried an XM16A1E1 select fire, I can tell you there are NO...

The U.S. Supreme Court, ruling 5-4 this morning in a challenge to Chicago’s handgun ban, ruled that the Second Amendment’s guarantee of an individual right to bear arms applies to state and local gun control laws. As a practical matter, this means all kinds of state and local gun restrictions will now be subject to more judicial scrutiny. For California, it confirms the already-strong likelihood that AB 1934 – the pending bill that would outlaw “open carry” of unloaded, unconcealed firearms in public places – quickly will be met with a lawsuit if it’s signed into law.AB 1934’s author is...

Let Our Voices Ring Out Like Thunder! Time is short to save open carry rights in California - a setback in California will be viewed by the Brady Bunch and other anti-gun rights extremists as a strategic victory against our second Amendment rights with nation-wide repercussions. Though the California Assembly has passed Assemblywoman Lori Saldana's AB 1934 to criminalize honorable open carry, the vote in the Senate is not assured for her - and our job is to make it assured victory for us! Please donate what you can IMMEDIATELY so we can run pro-open carry radio ads in critical...

To: California State Legislature & Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger We urge you to oppose Assemblywoman Lori Saldana's AB 1934, a bill to ban the open carry of handguns in public places, for the following reasons: 1. The open carry of holstered handguns has always been legal in California - it is an old right, not a new threat. In fact, 43 states allow the increasingly common "open carry" of handguns in public, in most cases at age 18 without any permit - and only California forbids openly carried guns to be loaded in cities. 2. The US Supreme Court in DC...

But even more disturbing than Saldana's histrionic approach to marketing her 9,996 word bill creating or amending 8 sections of California's complicated gun laws is that fact that she has misled legislators, the media, and the public at large into believing that AB 1934 would not impact private property rights. For example, Ms. Saldana flatly warranted on San Diego 6 News that "The bill would ban open carry in public places - on private property, you're still allowed to carry a gun." See http://www.sandiego6.com/mediacenter/local.aspx?articleID=778999 But as Mr. Pierce explained in his recent Op-Ed, all private property in California is considered...
