The life-blood of Gun Owners of California and our national counterpart Gun Owners of America has always rested on our Constitutional guarantee to protect ourselves, our homes and our loved ones.  We’ve done a darn good job of keeping our fingers on the pulse of how this right is being eaten away – but just … More STANDING AGAINST VIOLENCE: Protection Against the Wolves

We’ve had just about enough of Assemblyman Reginald Jones Sawyer. Now he’s lobbying for a national movement to amend the US Constitution that would change the 2nd Amendment.  Does he realize that in order to do some Constitutional “renovation”, one must follow the rules set by the very document he considers out of touch?  Maybe not.  He … More NATN’L MOVE TO AMEND THE 2A? CA Politician Says YES

Do you want a liberal politician to decide if you are “worthy” to carry a concealed weapon? If Assemblyman Kevin McCarty has his way, that’s exactly what’s going to happen.  He just put forth a proposal that would establish his definition of “good cause” – thus removing the authority for issuing CCWs from the hands of … More NEW ATTACK – ALL CCW PERMITS IN DANGER IN CALIFORNIA!

Ever since the heart-wrenching atrocity in Orlando, the airwaves, print and social media have been fiery-hot with commentary – GOC included.  And boy, has there been a lot of finger-pointing. Quoting from Greg Gutfeld of the Fox News Channel, “the New York Times blamed Republicans for Orlando. The Huffington Post blamed Christians. Every liberal blames guns, … More PUT THE BLAME WHERE IT’S DUE: Not on us…

Hell and prison.  Pretty much two places none of us wants to visit. Here’s a question, though – while we highly doubt there are weapons in hell, we know for certain at there are weapons in prison. So if there are weapons (guns) in prison, why would anyone think for a nanosecond that a terrorist couldn’t … More EVIL: Today’s Cultural “Four Letter Word”

Teddy Roosevelt once said that “complaining about a problem without posing a solution is called whining.” We couldn’t agree more. Here’s the rub, though – we are in a fight for our virtual 2nd Amendment lives these days, being assaulted from stem to stern and all points in between.  We’re taking it in the legislative … More What’s With Them Negative Waves?

First Assemblyman Reginald Jones Sawyer said it’s A-OK to ignore the Constitution proclaiming “We go ahead and make laws because we’re California and WE DO IT ANYWAYS…” and now he’s making a public call for the 2nd Amendment to be “updated.” Updated?  You mean polish it up – kind of like a facelift? After all, … More NEWSFLASH! Tyranny Does Not Exist!

If looking at the high Sierras is a glimpse of Heaven, then lobbying for gun rights at the Capitol is a peek into hell.  Eager to get something on paper that laid out the hypocrisy and gory details of politicians who put our Constitution though a meat grinder, we learned the articulate pen of Sacramento … More A “Peek Into Hell” and Threatened Rights for the “Politically Incorrect”

That’s right.  There just aren’t that many people who are interested in getting a civics lesson.  Few people really want to understand what happens under the legislative dome, whether right here in California, let alone in DC. We’re not just talking about whether more fees are slapped on your already high utility bill (although that … More No One Wants A Civics Lesson…
