The title says it all. This is about exchanging info on illegal, corrupt and unconstitutional discretionary CCW policies, focusing on California but applicable to other discretionary gun permit problems including NYC types, the "local signoff" on Class3 in states where it's theoretically legal, etc.
Included is the complete text of the suit I filed so far, a key legal precedent document and various links to the history of discretionary CCW revealing it's unsavory nature. So far I've got one article linked on the "lack of blood in the streets" in other states, I'm particularly interested in collecting more of these. I know there's good ones from Florida.
I could also use a good linked review of Lott's book..BUT:
WHAT I REALLY NEED is personal stories from California. I want to know about good people denied, I want to know about bribes asked for, politically connected folk that have 'em, zero-issue policies, etc. I need to collect info on the issuance policies of as many agencies as possible, eventually I hope to build huge charts exposing just who's doing what.
I WANT DIRT. I'm going to make ALL the BS public. California law enforcement has been treating people like slime in private, that needs to end NOW.
EMail me with your stories, if it's got your EMail address plus city and county I'm going to assume you want it published. If not we can do anonymous but I *urge* you to go public, it's a far stronger statement.
The site's a humble start so far but it's worth checking out for Salute vs. Pitchess alone. And it WILL grow - fast. It's in decent shape for something five hours old.
