I see no reason why concealed carry should be legal anyway. Open carry should be the norm if you are going to allow individuals to bear arms anytime, anywhere as some 2A supporters argue.
Of course I am against open carry too since we already pay for city, state, and federal law enforcement operations that should allow all of us to go about our business without fear of being robbed, assaulted, or murdered.
Law enforcement though has been militarized and has become a tool of fascists after a couple of generations of careful fear-mongering designed to turn us against each other and thus build a case, first in one area and then expanding nationwide, for everyone to go around armed all the time increasing the likelihood of unstable personalities using their firearms in crimes of passion that otherwise would not have occurred.
Open carry and concealed carry create the environment for an increase in firearm crimes while at the same time failing to serve as a deterrent in the hands of untrained citizens.
in theory i also agree except the law enforcement that we pay for does almost nothing for us to go about our business without fear of being robbed, assaulted, or murdered. a prominent tech executive was just stabbed to death in SF, you cannot park anywhere in the bay area without clearing your entire car of belongings, elderly people are being mugged and robbed in their neighborhoods, asians continue to be attacked in broad daylight, home break ins are frequent, and the police are nowhere to be found and they do not even seem to attempt to find or book the perpetrators
i dont think that firearms is necessarily the right answer but i can understand why people may feel the need to take their protection into their own hands when our law enforcement agencies are like this
There are several active lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of many of California's current gun laws. With the recent Supreme Court ruling, they are making excellent progress forward, but are still often stuck in a process hell driven by the politics of the 9th Circuit Court.
The 2A is still being infringed across California. SF continues to not grant conceal carry licenses and open carry is illegal.
