Linkarooni - here she goes. I sure wish the Board of Supervisors would fire her! I sure wish a few of those people who have money and are getting their permits revoked would tie her ass up in court.

Sheriff begins taking away concealed weapons permits
Hundreds of letters have been sent out advising current permit holders of impending revocation.

BY NORBERTO SANTANA JR.
The Orange County Register

The Sheriff's Department has begun the process of revoking hundreds of concealed weapon permits across Orange County.

This week, department officials confirmed that 146 letters have been sent out advising current license holders that their permits to carry firearms in public – called CCWs – are being revoked. There are currently 1,024 permit holders.

"The Department has determined that your identified risk does not meet the good cause threshold as required under the new CCW policy based upon the information you provided. As a result of this determination, the Department's present intention is to revoke your CCW license," reads the form letter sent out this month.

They can either fire her, or she can be fired upon.

Here we go..another outrage perpetuated by Libtard politicians.One hundred and forty six letters have been mailed to CCW holders in Orange County because the Sheriff thinks they do not have a compelling reason to carry a gun.

hopefully someone will sue based on them being denied their right to bear arms...

this is clearly a violation of the 2nd amendment... since open carry isnt legal in most of CA and CC is damn near impossible to get legally... the state has effectively removed everyone 2A right.

The goal seems to be to disarm the chronically stupid:
But it seems unlikely that those who are getting the letters won't be revoked.

"Most of them are not coming back with the information we need," said Nighswonger. "A lot of them are arguing the second amendment (to the U.S. Constitution)," he said.

Nighswonger said many of the current revocations listed their reason for having a concealed gun as "avid shooter."
I obviously agree that it's a 2nd Amendment right, but arguing on those grounds to people who've already decided to take a different "interpretation" is just dumb. They might as well light their permit on fire. Smart responders would state they do community service in crime-ridden areas, or something similar.

LOL. It seems that somebody who felt this was a God-given right would simply carry whether a CCW was revoked or not. Murdering the sheriff is less likely to to be productive.

You laughed at it. Good. Your gallows humor will serve you well here.
