To whoever cares:
What everyone seem to forget, andall the articles do not mention, is the fact that these 40 (plus or minus)law abiding citizens would most likely have carriedconcealed ifSan Diego or county of their residence had followed the provisions of the California Penal Code and issued more permits to carry concealed with less hassles.
Better yet, if allapplicatons for permits to carry concealed were processed and issued, (or denied),according to the law, there may never have beena gathering.
To every action their is a reaction, and in this casepeople have chosen to exercise theRIGHT to carry openly because PERMITED rights to carry concealed are being denied.
Ifor onewould chose to carry concealed over open carry, but will open carryas a last resort.
Inow intend to request IN WRITING, permission from the San Diego County Education department permission to carry openly and unloadedwithinall San Diego school zonesWITH THE EXCEPTION OF SCHOOL PROPERTY.
In my planned contact with San Diego School officials, I intend as part of my request, to inform them that I haveNO desire to carry concealed or openly ON school property, but feel that permission to carry while driving, walking or standing nearK-12 schools while onpublic roads and sidewalks should be permitted by individuals who have the right to carry.
I for one would challenge any member of law enforcement or District Attorney to identify the location of every school which is subject to this provision of the law, and if they can't it proves a point.
There is no way I'm going to know every time I enter a school zone.
More on this in the near future, need to talk to several individuals first.
