My friend was right they said if they made it shall issue the person in the Permit Department said they would not issue even if SCOTUS said it was law. Seems true.

A lawsuit is in clear view then, they are the law so they have to obey the law

This may be true but it doesn’t make any sense. If you’re a prohibited person than you cannot have guns period, let alone get a ccw. Do they really think l that even a tiny fraction of applicants are prohibited persons? They are likely stalling to concoct some scheme to weed out even people with 10 year old arrests without convictions or people with 10 year old DUI or even traffic infractions.

It actually does makes some sense. Like I said, it will weed out those right away that are prohibited. You're also assuming that everyone out there knows all the rules, and people who are prohibited arent going to apply. That's just being naive on your part. Talk to anyone you know who works or has worked at a gun shop. Prohibited people come in all the time trying to purchase firearms. Some may not even know they are prohibited, but sure, most do but still try. Even if say, 5% who apply are prohibited, that's 5% less that they would have to bring in, interview, and THEN find out later they failed the background check. Why even bother interviewing those people before the background check? Because it was "good cause" before the 2A ruling they could do the interview first and deny you right there, or even before the interview in many cases because the simply didn't agree with your "good cause". Now they cannot do that.

Do I feel like this is the main reason(s) they are supposedly proposing doing it this way? Maybe, maybe not. But like I said, this is just what I was told by someone who is way more informed and involved than me, but with that said do not to take it as gospel.

What are Alameda county's stand on modifying a carry firearm? I know some counties allow it, others don't. Deciding between my Shield and CZ 75D Compact. Not looking to do anything crazy, just replace the shield trigger with something a little smoother.

My friend with a CCW from Solano said they have been doing the fingerprint background FIRST before applying for years.

And they use the same software https://solanoso.permitium.com

Alameda does not want to issue CCW permits they are stalling and pretending they don't know what to do.

Just a matter of time before CRPA or FPC slaps them with a lawsuit, the more people applying and getting refunds the better as it shows the are violating the 2nd amendment even after the SCOTUS ruling, they are just digging themselves deeper in the hole

I hope they sue today because Nothing changed AC is making up all this nonsense about they fell in the toilet and are having issues with backgrounds is hogwash. GOOD CAUSE IS GONE! San Francisco is processing that's like hell freezing over they have no excuse at all in Alameda County

Do they really have to interview you and run a background check before finding out you are prohibited? I imagine one of the first things they can do is check if the firearm on your app is in AFS and registered to you and if not kick back your application. And if it IS registered to you and you are prohibited then CA DOJ has bigger problems then that tiny fraction of people applying for a CCW.

Just applied yesterday and the refund message is now coming blank without any additional context other than "A Refund Has Been Applied". They are now sending back no explanation of why my fee was funded.

More proof, realistically they’re just making things worse for themselves should they need to defend themselves in court.

Ahern has nothing to lose, he already lost and retiring, why does the DemoRats still have him on a leash?

Can't wait to see what the next sheriff has in store, hopefully good.

You're kidding, right? Given the groups that backed her, it makes Ahern look like a Reagan Republican.
