Uphold Sensible California Gun Law!

"The people of California have made the reasonable decision to keep people from legally carrying loaded guns in their streets, parks, and businesses, unless law enforcement determines someone has good cause to be armed,” said Brady Center President Paul Helmke. “The Constitution does not require people to be subjected to the grave risks of more loaded guns as they go about their daily lives. The Second Amendment should not be rewritten as a mandate for the gun lobby’s ‘any gun, anywhere, for anybody’ agenda." [More]
Hey, isn't that basically the same position this guy took when he had a say in such matters?

My comments from the related thread at OpenCarry.org:

"California Pistol & Rifle Association"

Pretty lame they can't even get California Rifle & Pistol Association's name right.

"'The people of California, more than 80 years ago, have made the reasonable decision to keep Mexican and Chinese people from legally carrying loaded guns in their streets, parks, and businesses, unless law enforcement determines someone has good cause to be armed,' said Brady Center President Paul Helmke."

There, fixed it for him.

As for the rest, they acknowledge the parts of Heller they can't ignore ("in the home") and ignore the the key parts ("such as, in the home"). They always have trouble with those pesky clause modifiers.
