FROM: DAN Walters Columnist

... However, there is a significant exception to the Legislature's zealous protection of rights, one group of law-abiding Californians whose rights are being assaulted, even though they are specifically mentioned in the nation's Constitution – the millions of Californians who own and use firearms for hunting and target-shooting.

The same Democratic legislators who passionately argue for the protection of other rights, including those of felons, are pushing at least two dozen bills that would harass law-abiding gun owners.

Great article.

[majtom94]

Wow how did that get by the party monitors?

[readysetgo]

Thanks for posting. Great article.

Who is this Dan Walters? Gotta be a calgunner, not because it was bias towards us but because his insight is sharp and spot on.

It's all quite nonsensical – and undercuts the reverence for human and civil rights that the Legislature professes to hold.

Dan Walters calls out the politicians in Sacramento on a regular basis.

If you read his column the culture of corruption becomes remarkably clear.

Too bad that nothing becomes of it.

Thanks for the article!

That is awesome wish more media would pick this up! Mountain lions have more rights then us

[REH]

Thanks for the article. Hard to belive is was in the Bee.

You can read his stuff and watch his videos on line at SAcBee.com. Probably the only one at that paper who thinks that way..

It is somewhat encouraging. Maybe some uninformed and apathetic gun owners will read it and actually start voting.

Dead it myself. We should all comment on their site and email the author thanking him... His email should be at the bottom of the article. Maybe we could get a followup based upon our response

[epilepticninja]

At least somebody outside of people involved in the political fight of our gun rights, notices that our rights are being trampled on by a bunch of dickhead politicians.

I sent an email Thanking Mr. Walters for the article. I also posted the article on my facebook page. It I knew how to tweet or twitter I would do that too. We need to maximize any good press that we get!

I can always count on the San Jose Murky News to NOT run Waters' column when it goes against their editorial principles. (HAHAHAHA "Principles" in reference to the Murk... I crack me up.)

Although grateful for Dan Walters speaking up I don't think he hit hard enough.

I would have hoped he'd show a little more outrage towards the Legislature for what it's attempting to do to gun owners.
