I'm not clear as to how this could be considered a "drive-by"... it's exactly the same press release that Gene published on Calguns... which is a place that not a lot of non-CA-gunfolk monitor.

And it brings up something that a lot of us have been saying for a long time... that the fight for gun rights will not be waged in the self-righteously so-called "free states", but here in enemy territory. Gene and the Calguns Foundation are fighting a fight that will benefit everyone, and they're fighting it on ground that much of the movement wrote off years ago.

This is huge.

And note that the case was brought in Federal court. The goal is nothing less than a Federally recognized right to carry. That's got implications far beyond the borders of "Kommiefornia".

This, folks, is what happens when, instead of giving up and leaving, as we have been told over and over again to do, committed people decide to stand and fight.
