So this new law bans the open carrying of handguns, correct? I don't see anything about not being able to open carry a long gun.

Lets see how their super strict gun laws have worked in the past.
It would seem as though restricting guns from the law abiding citizens is going well! /sarcasm.

@ the guy who said what would a gun do in a store when a guy wants to rob it and relieves you of your gun, YOU ARE AN IDIOT!
If you know anything about people doing dirt, they aren't about to hit a store where they see someone with a gun. They will wait until the person leaves.... THEN hit the store......

The point of open carry is that in a situation such as that, there would be several more gun toting civilians once the person mentioned left
I was at an In and Out outside Pheonix a few months ago and a couple older guys were carrying. I GAURANTEE

I am going to make the assumption those FOR gun control for law abiding citizens have never looked at any research material involving the subject however....
So I'll give you a pass for ignorance....
When you find yourself in the situation where a gun would be nice.... or the guy next to you on the ground having a gun would be nice..... Don't jump ship...
Just remember you backed the idea.
Idiot.

However, I merely asked what good open carry is going to do in that situation. If I'm the bad guy going in to rob the convenience store, I'm going to disarm the guy carrying the gun FIRST - and drop him if need be, in order to carry out the robbery. It nets me an extra gun and more ammunition.

When you don't have a logical argument to make, resort to calling names. Brilliant. I'm NOT in agreement with the ban on open carry.

As to the whole rural california/unincorporated areas, didnt you guys just have cops hunt a man down near some base that was popping off people? You have less crime due to less population and a better sense of community. Guns help and are a deterrent but thats not the only reason you guys have low crime rate.

Well your right to BEAR ARMS is written in the constitution so you have to be able to carry them.... otherwise COTUS will use their strong hand, well they should but they won't because they love obama and obama hates guns.
a guy I know signed up for a state medical marijuana card and just got a letter from atf informing him to get rid of his firearm within 90 days.
they are simply disarming people because they are planning many busts
or
they realize marijuana users aren't being convicted so making the firearm illegal gives them something to convict on.

What? The ATF is telling him to get rid of his guns because he has a card? Sorry man but thats hard to believe, any more proof of this? Not calling you a liar, just saying that maybe your friend didnt give you all the info.
