California has an interesting relationship with firearms to put it lightly. Since the Supreme Court of the United States turned down a challenge to California’s “may issue” permitting scheme/scam, declining to hear Peruta v San Diego, a lot has actually changed. Through activism and working with Sheriff Gore, some of the landscape in San Diego has changed, with more concealed carry weapons licenses being issued. That is not to say that Peruta would absolutely get the relief he sought when he challenged the law in the present day, but many law abiding citizens in San Diego County are now being issued permits, when in the past they would not.
As reported in a press release from San Diego County Gun Owners (SDCGO), some interesting things are going on. At a recent city council meeting on April 6, 2021, the council voted on an ordinance concerning “Police-Regulated Occupations and Businesses.” The ordinance is in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and businesses either not paying or not able to pay the fees associated with business inspections. From the text of the ordinance:
Introduce and adopt an emergency Ordinance pursuant to Charter Section 295 enacting a temporary deferral of fees and the extension of permit renewals for police-regulated occupations and businesses, due to the state of emergency resulting from the novel coronavirus, COVID-19.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
