Legislator Falsely Calls Out GOC: Dude, Check Your Facts!

Final week, San Francisco Assemblyman Phil Ting referred to as GOC out publicly and claimed we’re liars.

Dude.  Earlier than making such inflammatory, ugly and false statements, he may need to test his information.   However then once more, he’s a Leftist and Leftists have an issue with the reality.

In testifying earlier than the Public Security Committee in opposition to AB 2917 final week, GOC’s Sam Paredes made the purpose that he’s at all times open to debate gun violence points with legislators. It is a routine and constant closing remark.

Ting blustered nevertheless, and stated Sam’s comment was “ABSOLUTELY FALSE” and that he has “reached out” to GOC and that it was “information to him” that we’d ever need to have a dialogue. Watch it right here.

GOC wonders if Ting’s pants may very well be on hearth on the similar time his nostril grows.  To cite GOC’s founder, “Canines bark, snakes wiggle, jackasses bray, vultures vomit and radical leftists lie.  It’s of their nature to take action.” **  Rattling straight.

 GOC have to be very clear:  We have now by no means obtained any form of communication from both Assemblyman Ting or his workers.  Our door has at all times been open.  Our telephones are in working order. People can discover us by Googling “Gun House owners of California.”

As well as, with every invoice GOC opposes, we submit an official letter to members of the Senate, Meeting in addition to workers by means of the legislative portal, the place we very clearly define our points with stated laws.  The next have been pulled from precise letters on file:

“I imagine we should always get all the way down to the enterprise of lowering crime, moderately than penalizing the lawful for the misdeeds of the illegal – it’ll by no means have its anticipated decision. For many who are all in favour of stemming the tide of unlawful weapons, we share a typical want, and GOC believes we are able to cooperatively transfer in the direction of this objective. I might be more than pleased to debate this and different associated points at your comfort.”
“As is the norm, I like to finish my legislative letters with a honest invitation to debate the laws at hand, plus different Second Modification associated points; sadly, it’s hardly ever accepted. I stay hopeful nevertheless, that within the aftermath of the Bruen choice by the Supreme Courtroom in New York State Rifle & Pistol Affiliation v Bruen – and others previously months on the hid carry matter – that we may finally have a productive Constitutional dialogue.”
“That is yet one more wrong-headed and futile method to fixing the issue of legal firearm misuse. The protection of Californians is on the very basis of GOC’s mission, and it has been our constant objective to work towards widespread sense options concerning the problem of crime and firearm possession; this may be carried out, nevertheless, with out sacrificing our Constitutional rights and the power of the legislation abiding to guard their households. As at all times, I might be happy to debate this with you need to you so want.”
“It has lengthy been our conviction that penalizing the lawful for the misdeeds of the illegal won’t ever have it’s supposed end result. It’s each a punitive and ineffective means to an finish, and I say sufficient with the scare ways – let’s get all the way down to the enterprise of lowering crime.  I imagine we’ve got a typical objective in stemming the tide of unlawful weapons and can be greater than happy to debate how we are able to cooperatively transfer in the direction of this objective.”

Does GOC tire of sincerely providing to sit down down and focus on attainable areas of widespread floor concerning the Structure and the Second Modification with anti-2A legislators?  Sure – however we do it anyway. We have now been stiff-armed to such a level that sure, we might not embody the provide to have a honest dialogue in each single letter we’ve written previously decade, however our want to speak with these whom we disagree has been very public and real.  Heck – getting background supplies from member’s workplaces on authored laws has turn out to be a chore – however as a result of we foyer on behalf of California’s gun house owners we’re routinely dismissed by infantile workers who haven’t the foggiest concept of the way to act like professionals.  For actual, individuals – this may be carried out with these of differing views.

We should conclude with a minimum of one caveat:  When in workplace, Senator Joseph Simitian – a Democrat from the Bay space, was not solely all in favour of having a number of conversations with GOC’s Sam Paredes, however he was at all times considerate, thoughtful {and professional}.  Whereas we might have finally disagreed on most issues of coverage, the respectful and honest tenor with which he communicated was then – and is to at the present time – deeply appreciated.

Many may study from his smart demeanor.
