Richards v Bonta (CA 10 day waiting period)

Firearms Policy Coalition Files Lawsuit Challenging California's 10-Day Firearm Waiting Period - https://www.firearmspolicy.org/fpc-...ing-californias-10-day-firearm-waiting-period
  • Plaintiffs are Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC), San Diego County Gun Owners PAC, California Gun Rights Foundation, and the Second Amendment Foundation
  • 10 day waiting period prevents law-abiding people from taking possession of lawfully acquired firearms for immediate self-defense and other lawful purposes - this relegates the right to keep and bear arms to second-class status
  • "With this new challenge, FPC reiterates the old adage, 'a right delayed is a right denied,'" said Bill Sack FPC Director of Legal Operations. "Arbitrarily delaying access of life-saving and constitutionally protected tools to peaceable people is immoral and unsupported by the text, history and tradition of the second amendment in this country. This law must be struck down."
 
I dont get waiting periods.If you already own a gun and are buying another,whats the point?

You're not thinking like a California anti-gun tyrant, although your New Jersey tyrants are cut from the same cloth. Never try to apply logic and common sense to their tyranny. Their goal is to make legal civilian gun ownership as expensive, inconvenient
and humiliating as possible. Dealing with the state's BOF (Bureau of Firearms branch of the CADOJ) to obtain a certificate of exemption (COE) so one can have ammo still shipped to their door without going through an FFL01
is a exercise in frustration and idiocy. Their website looks like it was designed by a Russian hacker circa 1978 and is about as logical and functional.

If they could figure out how to just bust down doors, shoot dogs and people in the process of grabbing every firearm, as their ATF idols do, they would. Since they can't yet get away with that, the mandate is to
pass hundreds of unconstitutional anti-gun laws and then make law abiding citizens jump through their idiotic hoops to stay legal until they have the political capital to just illegally disarm us.
