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?
Despite some onerous restrictions, California has a distinct and close-knit gun culture. As with anywhere else, you have three stripes of gun owners:
  • those who simply abide and live with the regulations,
  • those who hate the regulations, but do little beyond complaining, and
  • those who actually do something about the problem.
That third group is unusually energetic, organized, and active in California. As with New York and Maryland, they've got an uphill battle, but they've got a battle plan, and they're making real progress.

This is why all the "if you don't like it, move out of California LOLZ" posts are so annoying. Someone has to be willing to stick around and fight it out, and fortunately, there are a lot of people in California willing to do so.
