A sad state of affairs to be sure.  |
A few months ago I posted a story our CCW training Sergeant told the class.
If you’re in SF or any of the Bay Area counties and an officer confiscates your weapon (assuming you’re not being an idiot) you must allow the officer to take it. Be sure to request a receipt for it and get the officers information.
He said you just made $50K.
He went on to say that SF tries to tell you the CCW is not valid in SF and at some point they were trying to enforce their illegal rules.
The way he told the story with some details it sounds like this happened to one of our Lake County CCW holders.
So, when I took my family to SF to see the Blue Angels (they canceled because of the fog) I was on high alert.
I must have walked past 15 uniformed SF police officers but it was a little windy and a nice unzipped wind breaker worked great.
We had lunch at Pier 39 and a tourist walked in the upstairs restaurant with a NRA jacket, the one with a really big logo. The lady next table over said, “Can you believe that” pointing to her friend in this guys direction.
I giggled to myself and thought, lady if you only knew that 4 feet away from you is a man with a Real Gun, safely holstered and if the **** hit the fan and I was forced to defend myself, that by doing so I’m also defending you since your right next to me. Of course we all know nothing bad has ever happened in restaurants and surely nothing bad would happen in San Francisco…
