Negligent discharges (NDs) don’t have to happen to you. Firing a gun when you don’t intend to send a projectile down the barrel is completely avoidable. Whether you call them unintentional or negli…

Juneteenth

Let today be a reflection of the resilience, the creativity, and the ingenuity of the ancestors who endured brutality, opposed subjugation, and contributed to the development of this nation. Their courage and sacrifice spearheaded movements that live on in our nation’s quest to provide liberty and justice for all.

We’re in this together.

"As people who are committed to being responsible fi****ms-owners, we have to understand when we are lawfully permitted to employ fi****ms...

Establishing the reasonable belief of imminent danger requires us to explain and prove that the threats we engage have the ability, the opportunity, and the intent to cause us serious bodily injury or death."

Fi****ms are lethal devices, which is why owning a firearm is a serious undertaking. The presence of a firearm makes any incidence of violence into a potentially lethal encounter, whether inside ou…

San Diego's safe firearm storage law will not make you a victim; you can still legally have your gun available to your immediate access without a trigger lock!!

On 13 August, 2019 San Diego City Council adopted the Safe Storage of Fi****ms within the City of San Diego.

"(c) Prohibition. It is unlawful for any person to keep a
firearm within any residence, including its accessory
structures, unless the firearm is stored in a locked
container or disabled with a trigger lock." [p.6]

The law still allows for a firearm to be stored unlocked nearby or carried upon the person.

"(d) Exceptions. Subsection (c) shall not apply in the
following circumstances:
(1) the firearm is carried on the body of a person who is an
authorized user of the firearm, or
(2) the firearm is in the immediate control of the authorized
user so that the person can readily retrieve and use the
firearm as if carried on the person’s body." [p.6/7]

Open and concealed carry are legal in the State of California within owned and rented homes, even without a concealed carry permit, unless a city law bans this. San Diego currently allows lawful carry by these methods within the residence.

Effectively, this law is the same as a state law, PC25100; making a person a criminal if a child gains access to their fi****ms and leaves the house or causes an injury.

The law entered final passage on 13 August and takes effect 30 days later, on 12 September, 2019.

"Section 3. That this Ordinance shall take effect and be in
force on the thirtieth day from and after its final passage."
[p.7]

The Declaration of Independence was adopted on 4 July, 1776, and represents the formal separation of the Colonies from British oversight.

The Revolutionary War began a year earlier, in April of 1775, with the battles at Lexington and Concord. These sites were armories for the surrounding towns, where the militias' fi****ms were stored. The strategy of capturing the guns and depriving the Colonists of the means to engage in armed conflict was implemented by British Army, but the tactic instead served to catalyze the opposition to British rule into violent skirmishes that sparked 8 years of fighting.

France joined the conflict on the side of the colonial rebellion in 1778.
The war would endure through 1783, and would be rekindled in 1812.

The 4th of July is a celebration of defiance, of rebellion, and of embracing the power that is bestowed upon each of us by the Creator.

Have a joyful celebration.
