Default Good Cause Help

Ok guys... Im having a hard time with "Good Cause". After reading many of your good causes, I cannot relate to any of them.

I am just a normal everyday guy who dont own a business, doesnt carry more then $40 cash with him at most given moments, etc. Yet I feel that I should be able to have protection on me should the need arise. I would like to defend myself and my family to the best of my ability.

What are my "Good Cause" options here??

You're in LA County and the only thing you have is "personal protection"?

To put it bluntly, you're pretty much screwed.

Oh, and no one here will tell you what your Good Cause is.

On the flip side, you're got a pretty sweet truck there on your website. Nice beefy V8 sound.

Yes, thank you. I read the sticky about this after I posted.

I don't mean to discourage you, but even in Orange County where we have it pretty easy "personal protection" doesn't do the trick either.

J&J said it first, but yeah, in LA county it doesn't seem to matter very much what your good cause is, unless it involves "frequently seen on movies and TV"

Now, that's not true.

"Wealthy contributor to political candidates" is also effective.

No.. I totally understand what you guys are saying. It just sucks you know. It should be my right to carry but somehow it was taken away from me.

Hey, don't feel like the Lone Ranger, SF, Alameda, CoCo and Santa Clara counties are just as bad.
