Here We Go……Again. CA CCW Ban Under the Guise of Gun Safety!
On Feb. 1, 2023, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Attorney General Rob Bonta and State Senator Anthony Portantino (D-Burbank), joined by gun-control advocates, held a press conference to announce renewed legislative efforts to limit where law-abiding, sane-and-trained gun owners with a legally-authorized, CCW (concealed-carry weapon) permit can carry guns. This latest gun-control legislation, said supporters, is in response to recent multiple mass shootings in the state.
OCGO Comments on Governor Newsom’s Latest Attempt to Outlaw Law-abiding Gun Owners from Conceal-Carry.

Blog: He’s Back! – After two years New Mexico authorities finally attempt to hold Alec Baldwin and others accountable
I find myself somewhat ambivalent on writing about this subject. On the one hand I have no interest in Alec Baldwin or in what happens in his life. On the other hand, as a gun owner and gun writer I feel like this particular event is important and needs to be addressed. Finally, since I’ve already written about it twice, what the hell, I might as well write a third article on the subject.
