Default RivCo Sheriff Bianco and opponent Michael Lujan Q&A

https://cvindependent.com/2022/04/ca...ounty-sheriff/

This article came out and shows a Q&A with both candidates running for sheriff of Riverside County. Good info all around. The snippets below will show their answer to a question about whether ccws make us safer or more endangered...

Chad Bianco

That is a silly question. Only law-abiding residents ask permission and apply for concealed-weapons permits. Only law-abiding residents are allowed the permit. There are actually over 18,000 permits in Riverside County as of today. Why would a person with a concealed-carry permit be more at risk of “gun violence?” Quit calling it “gun violence.” Words mean things, similar to “mass shooting,” and that is why anti-gun activists call it gun violence. Guns are objects that cannot commit any violent act. They are a tool used by bad people who commit violent acts. Start focusing on the criminals committing the violence. Since 2019, we have not had a negative incident involving anyone with a concealed carry permit. We have had several incidents where someone with a concealed carry permit has stopped criminal activity, and prevented serious injury or loss of life. If law-abiding residents are prevented from having guns, then only the criminals have guns.

Michael Lujan

I don’t necessarily believe it’s going to make anyone in the county more safe or more at risk for gun violence. The law allows for a CCW process, and we are a “may” issue state, as opposed to a “shall” issue state. Also, we have to recognize that when someone is applying for a CCW, there has to be a good cause and justification for the CCW. I believe we need to follow the rule of the law and the processes that are established in the CCW program, but I also believe we should recognize that there has to be a just cause, or a good cause, for it as described.

I don’t believe that the individuals who are receiving CCWs pose an inherent threat to public safety. My concern is that, if at some point in time, they felt the need to defend themselves, are they very proficient in the use of their firearm, other than having gone through a firearms-safety course. That’s very difficult, and it’s a perishable skill. I’ve yet to experience someone with a CCW engaging another individual out in the public, or in the privacy of their home with a firearm. I really haven’t been informed through studies or statistics on whether or not it’s a little more dangerous. It is concerning. It’s always concerning when there are more people out there with guns who might, say, go to dinner and have some drinks and not be of sound mind.

Lujan is anti gun/anti carry while trying not to sound anti gun/anti carry. I would definitely go with Bianco.

He's apparently forgotten the part about "shall not be infringed".

Pretty much “I support 2A but…”

The next Villanueva, in only issuing to those who have “just cause” to carry. So taking Riverside from Dark Green to a Yellow issuing stance.

From the quoted interview above, Bianco has a solid point ("Guns are objects that cannot commit any violent act. They are a tool used by bad people who commit violent acts. Start focusing on the criminals committing the violence."). Lujan's answer comes across as "neither here nor there" ..... and he's just angling for votes. Bianco comes across more as pro 2nd Amendment and supportive of qualified citizens/residents on CCW issues. He's got my vote along with family.

Blanco has demonstrated his stance on issuing CCWs and other issues. It would be foolish to vote for anyone else.

Anyone know if Bianco is doing yard signs again? I helped campaign for him the first go around, but he lost to Sniff. If someone’s handing out yard signs I’ll be happy to rock them.

So I went to his Facebook page and he has some locations on there where the signs can be picked up. I don’t do social media so I didn’t know about it. Anyway tried to get some on Friday, lady said she would leave some out for e to pick up after work but when I got there, didn’t see any. So, check out the Facebook page and maybe someone still has some.

I believe CA assembly district 36 (if that's what you're talking about) is mainly San Bernardino county. That'd be a good question for one of the SB threads

I thought Raul Ruiz was up for re-election. Wasn’t Storm Jenkins from Guns of distinction running against him?
