Two Years' Wait

In Riverside, California, they've come up with a unique (unique?) way to limit the number of gun owners who can carry their guns. Just make 'em wait a long time to even be CONSIDERED. The guy in this story wanted to be able to carry a gun for protection against vicious animals in the wilderness, and applied for a permit. 28 months later, he's still waiting for the county to CONSIDER his application. The anti-gun fools make it as hard as possible to be able to exercise this constitutional RIGHT. You should not be required to get a PERMIT to be able to exercise a constitutional right. But the "powers that be" have decided that they have the right to REQUIRE one in order to carry a gun. The power to require a permit is the power to say "no." Meanwhile, they have the power to delay, delay, delay, hoping you'll just "give up" and go away. That is a usurpation of power, but nobody seems willing to do anything about it. (Desert Sun)
