Really?

Granted CA gun owners are a distinct minority, yet they have come out in droves to various city, county and State legislative meetings, to directly oppose more restrictions on their rights.

How many other groups (of like minded individuals) do you know that have gotten together to fund litigation in as many court challenges as have those Californians?

What other State has a permanent and full-time NRA legislative lobbyist?

What other "may issue" State has a coordinated effort to hold every county Sheriff to the law, as it is written, in issuing CC permits? An effort that is paying off, I might add, as more and more Californians are getting their permits.

When was the last time you saw 100 concerned citizens at any Planning and Zoning Committee/Commission meeting? City Council meetings rarely garner that kind of public interest, regardless of the size of the city.

Yet in the past several months, Planning committees and Council meetings that are being held to forward an anti-gun agenda, are being held to sometimes overflowing audiences.

Mr. Yih-Chau has been reporting on these for some time now. This is not the first, only the latest.
