Thanks for the update.

I had to stop watching at 4:30 but I watched from around 1-4:30. I think those that showed up did a great job! A couple things I noticed:

1. Why did they cut off the CCW Instructor? Did his time run out? It seemed pretty quick to me.

2. It REALLY irritated me that the Sheriff acted like it was no big deal that those REVOKED would have it in the CLETS system for as she said "ONLY A QUARTER" and in the DOJ database for TWO YEARS. I don't care if it's ONE DAY, that's too much. That's enough, and I would be suing the pants off of the County.

3. I laughed outloud when The Brady guy said he thinks the Sheriff's policy on this is clear and concise.

4. One thing I was thinking though is the whole "defining of what a Good Cause is". Unless they adopt a VERY LENIENT policy such as "Personal Defense" or a "VERY RESTRICTIVE" one such as LA County, do other County's specifically define what a Good Cause is? What I mean is, it's not allowed to post your Good Cause on here in the open. I ASSuME that is so others won't just copy and paste your Good Cause, try to use it as there own thereby causing the Sheriffs to start denying because of copied Good Cause? I think in County's like Kern, our process works well. I don't think the Kern County Sheriff came out and said "if you put Personal Defense on your Good Cause that's enough", but from what I have heard, that IS the way it is. As in, he didn't make a public statement about it (avoiding pissing off the anti's) while in the approval process, that IS good cause.

5. I can't believe they would revoke a LOT of those folks. MANY had OUTSTANDING or an OVERWHELMING Good Cause.

6. Lastly, it seems to me that, other than possibly allowing the current CCW holders to keep there permit until it expires, the Sheriff is not going to budge. If that is the case, those that come up for review (at there 2yr mark) will simply be denied renewal at that time. I hope I'm wrong, but she just doesn't seem to be changed or moved by this.
