San Joaquin

[Window_Seat]

Are SJ residents still encouraged to send the letter (in post 410) to their BoS?

I wish the wheels of justice would roll a little faster...

Looking for a update ... Thank You.

I'll say it before someone else does "2 WEEKS" keep waiting. (

How about a status report.

(Holding a CCW means not attracting attention to yourself, blending in with your everyday environment is vital)

( Know this and you will instantly know how to deescalate any altercation quickly and safely )

(The laws and codes of conduct that are taught are invaluable. Please do yourself a favor and learn how to keep your permit by knowing what to do and what not to do.)

(Ok, now this was a pretty eye opening topic, there are certain "words" you should never use in a situation like this. One of them being the word "gun")

Have a great day,

How about a status report.

If there was any news or progress, it would be posted here immediately. Unfortunately, there has never been any kind of clear, substantial update, so the wait will continue. Remember these phrases, they always help me when I get frustrated and impatient.

"These things don't happen over night"
"This is Chess, not Checkers"
"You have to be patient"
"You will have an update VERY soon"

I work in Emergency Management. One key rule is that you must communicate, even when there is nothing to communicate. Perhaps the solution is for those in the "know" of what is happening to simply post a "Unfortunately, there is nothing new to report, as the work being done can not be discussed in an open forum. Rest assured that we are still working on it." or "Unfortunately, there is nothing new to report as we are waiting on a response/court case/funding/etc... Rest assured that we are still working on it."

Something like this, on a weekly or bi-weekly basis would go a long way in helping those of us that don't see wheels spinning to know that we are not forgotten. We are 2 weeks away from the 1 year mark for this thread. Something more than "These things don't happen over night" would be nice.

I've had a sinking feeling for a long time now, that the next "progress update" will be another Grass Roots Task right before election time next year...

I started thinking this right around the time I got my denial letter 7 or 8 months ago. I remember reading a couple posts saying to be patient, and to look at what was done in Sacramento County, and now Stanislaus. They both got new Sheriffs elected, and now they are essentially Shall Issue.

I'm all for it, but it would have been really nice to know if that was the plan all along.

Well......now there is some new law the sheriff will have to ignore ....all around us in San Joaquin county the rules are different , if i lived but 2 miles north , i'd be in Sac. county and could get my LTC (CCW).....

.......i did try , got my "so sorry" letter back in Jan. of this year , i belive I had a "GC" and had a well known person on this site look it over , but the Sheriff still said no....after a helping hand from somebody on this board , a letter was sent to the Sheriff , still have not got any news .........should I reapply/give up/get a lawyer ?


with this new law by J Brown...will it make a diff. to the San Joaquin Sheriff ?

kind of felt like I (and I'm sure there are others) were left out of the loop.............

rant over.....the new laws by JB got me a fired up.........sorry

I assume there will be a sticky on the main CCW page on this, but CGF just released a very interesting report on the "Number of Concealed Carry Permits by County in California"

You can see it here. There is a nice overview of all counties on page 4.

According to the San Joaquin County listing (page 44), there is only one civilian with a LTC in Tracy, CA. I know of one, so that must be the guy?

[RANGER295]

I understand everyone's frustrations, and trust me, I am every bit as frustrated as the next guy. I want to assure you that San Joaquin County has not been forgotten. We will prevail, but specific strategies can not be discussed in open forum. The wheels turn slowly.

LTC- Current status of San Joquin?

I thought I had read in one of the recent threads that San Joaquin has gone virtual "Shall Issue". Now I can't find it. Does anyone know the story?

I see by the recent stats they have 204 Civilian Licenses issued out of the SO...

You must have misread the information. San Joaquin County is by no means even close to shall issue. We're basically an island of bad LTC policy, as we're surrounded by Shall Issue counties (Sacramento & Stanislaus).

If the stat you're referencing is correct, then 0.00029% (1/3,431) of SJ county's population (approx. 700,000) has been approved for LTC.

I probably mistook it for Stanislaus. Thanks for the reply.
