I submitted around 2015. It's been 7 years. Heard nothing. Advice?

This is so discouraging. Everyone says, yeah, put in your application...and then you hear stories like yours, where hello, its been 7 years+ without a peep.

These clowns don't give a fark about the constitution or the Supreme Court. I feel like submitting an application is basically sending it to their circular file.

BTW....who should we vote for for the SC County Sheriff? Recommendations?

I dropped off application today at the sheriffs office. They asked to write down my name and phone number on a post it note as there is no place on the application for your phone number. I will be surprised if I ever get called but I’ve at least started the process.

I guess no one at the SO ever made it as far as page 9? I know it's not exactly Hemingway's 'A Farewell to Arms', but come on!

I tried applying via SJPD yesterday and this is the response that I got...TLDR: Same **** different day

"The process is presently on hold while the City attorneys office reviews the policies to ensure that it aligns with the legislative requirements. In the long run , this will ensure the process is more streamlined as well. We will reach out to folks when the process is approved to move forward."

and yet most every other county in the state of CA has no problem aligning with legislative requirements to fulfill their duties to their citizens.

Here's Sunnyvale's process posted on their policy page.

Reccomendations, Psych Testing, and more are required.

Thanks, some of those requirements sound unconstitutional - letters of reference? interview - lots of room for discretion....

Best to let them know a week before that you'll be posing the questions. Typically, the officer doing those drew the short straw and won't have details about such policy decisions, backlog, etc. You'll get some garden variety, "we're working really hard on it" BS otherwise.

Good point. That said though, the previous event a month or two ago had both the Chief and his Assistant Chief (I think) in attendance, not a stuck-ee beat cop.

Here's the thing though..... if the City is under no legal mandate to issue and can basically defer it to SCCSO by default, I don't see politically why the local agency would spend more than 2 seconds passing the proverbial buck.

I contacted SCPD on this as well and this was their canned response as of late-August 2022. I think I might have to go to the next "Coffee with a Cop" event they run locally and ask them (the Chief, ideally) to their face what is going on.

Called Santa Clara PD. Asked if they issue CCW or accept applications. I was told "No". I brought up the new announcement on Santa Clara Sheriff website to them and they said that they are not aware of anything like that and they don't know anything about issuing CCW.

Thank you for contacting the Santa Clara Police Department (SCPD). Historically, SCPD has not issued CCWs for residents and referred applicants to the Sheriff's Office. We appreciate your patience as SCPD is currently looking into the issue. You have the option to apply via the Sheriff's Office for now.

I still would love to understand how and when there will be any accountability for any of our SFBA agencies that are simply ignoring the current status quo post-Bruen. Are they just going to wait until the Democrats in DC negate SCOTUS with all their pipe dreams of packing the court (or whatever) and then reversing everything back into a progressive utopia afterwards in the coming years? The MSM this past week has already been 24/7 harping about the "illegitimacy" of SCOTUS in the year 2022. So tired of this crap.

CRPA issues last warning on issuance delays.

Did Sunnyvale DPS say to send in a paper copy or an emailed copy?

Paper copy- mailed in or dropped off in person.
