Someone PMed me asking if I thought liberalizing GC and issuing more CCWs would help or hurt AV staying in office. Here is my reply:
“Just watch the 40 second animation at
What youll notice is that for the past 30+ years there has been non stop change and ALL of it has been from more restrictive to less. Not one state has gone in the other direction regardless of where you’re talking about New England, the South, the Midwest, the Plains, the Pacific Northwest or the South West. Big states, little states. Urban states, rural states. When the economy boomed and during the Great Recession. When crime was surging or waning. While Dems have been president and while Republicans have been. Conservative Republican states leading the way and liberal Democrat states eventually following. And this year all around the nation and in CA gun sales have set records even with demand stripping shelves bare of supplies for months on end. While the MSM may howl, the safe bet is giving people the choice to be able to carry. Right to Carry is the one Pro Choice policy everyone — except for anti extremist — agree on.”
I forgot to take it to the next level: the above is true even within California. Other than briefly when Hutchens first took over OC and pulled all CCWs issued by corrupt Corona, EVERY county that’s made a change has gone from more restrictive to less restrictive: again, rural or urban, conservative or liberal, during boom times or bust. EVERYONE, whether they individually exercise the choice to carry or not, wants to have the choice. Gun sales and CCW applications within and across CA have both set records this past year and have only been limited by supply.
Being pro CCW is the popular and safe bet and only the biased MSM makes it seem controversial. Look across the nation and across CA across the decades. If right to carry was a bad policy, had net bad effects, or was unpopular at least one state or even just one CA county would have gone from less restrictive to more. They haven’t.
