Nobody wants to hear this, but even now there won't be any solution to our political problems. I'm in CA, battered gun owner syndrome is real. It was decades of incremental cuts that got us here, and it will likely take decades of incremental cuts to get us out. Trump will help, but I'm not optimistic about drastic change. I've been burned too much to have anything other than realistic expectations. Truth is, the people that genuinely care about this stuff and realize the bad reality of this situation are carrying anyways and do their best to avoid places where trouble is. You could have a permit, use the correct gun, store it right, literally bend over backwards and the state WILL find something to get you for. Seen it many times. If they're gonna get you anyways, you might as well do the thing they hate. I understand the mindset.
That's pretty lucky. I've found they tend to stack juries with leftists. I sat on a jury for a brutal armed robbery/assault, but the black juror and a soy liberal refused to convict a "brotha" on a slam dunk case. Victims were white. You'd never see a white guy get solidarity like that for anything.

This is why a Jury is so important, here in Tulare County they tried to prosecute but could not seat an impartial Jury, no one would find him guilty.
