From: http://www.kcra.com/politics/23154665/detail.htmlRead the whole article at the above link. Here is an excerpt: SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- California handgun owners would no longer be able to carry their weapons in public under legislation unveiled Wednesday at the state Capitol.
The bill marks the latest in a long series of fights over gun control.
Gun rights activists who stage so-called "open carry" events -- meant to dramatize their rights -- have kicked up a fuss around the state.
"We have law-abiding citizens that are expressing their constitutional right. And some people are uncomfortable with that," Sam Paredes, Executive director of Gun Owners of California said.
Some members of law enforcement are apparently on that list.
"We view open-carry as an officer safety issue," Emeryville Police Chief Ken James said. "Officers are taught from day one in the academy that guns are a threat."No, they aren't going into houses and taking them away... not yet, but many consider this as just another small, incremental step along that path, however.

Where do you store your bacon?
When whack jobs start open carrying around the POTUS to prove a point maybe it's the one bad apple thing?

I carry most days, but would never open carry unless I'm hunting or hiking. I find it rude. Legal yes, but rude. Most folks who open carry do so for shock value.

It is a wildlife recreation area, shooting of coyotes is not only legal, but encouraged! Sure shocked my fishing partner when I drew down on the yote.

KK,
I had a real nasty post all written out...but, truth be told I do have more class than that, and just deleted it. Honestly? reading one of your posts is right up there with having to listen to Obama drone on...
...I always feel the need for a shower after.
Hopefully the rest of the site members will at least avoid the personal insults. I didn't propose the f'n law...all I did was make you aware of it.
Now go bother someone else...I've got better things to do today than deal with asshats like you.

Is this site really all the fun you get to have? Must be miserable to be you. That's really all I can figure, as you've made a career out of insulting people that really have nothing against you at all other than replying to your insults and ridiculous blather.
Do I have a strong dislike for you? Damn right..couldn't be any other way after the way you treated me here. Every post I make you attack me like some political pit bull. Why is that? But then I do believe you actually hate yourself...must be a lot of pain in your life to respond to people in the way you do.
Honestly, I sincerely feel sorry for you. On one hand I really would love to kick your ass...but then that would be bad for us both because.[edit..no ones business]
That, or I could just pray for you...which seems a much better alternative.
Mike

It is a loaded weapon but there's no holster large enough.
