Calif. Judge Overturns Firearm Sales Ban

Considering the typical state of affairs in California, this almost falls into the realm of a “man bites dog” type story!

A California judge on Monday overturned a voter-approved city law that banned handgun possession and firearm sales, siding with gun owners who said the city did not have the authority to prohibit the weapons. Judge James Warren sided with the National Rifle Association, which argued that a local government cannot ban weapons because the California Legislature allows their sale and possession.

This is encouraging! Maybe California isn’t quite a total governmental ruin just yet!
