Baird v. Bonta (9th Cir. 2026):
For most of American history, open carry has been the default manner of lawful carry for firearms. It remains the norm across the country—more than thirty states generally allow open carry to this day, including states with significant urban populations. 1 Indeed, several of our Nation’s largest cities and states recently returned to unlicensed open carry by explicitly authorizing it. For example, Texas reauthorized open carry without a license in 2021. 2 Kansas likewise transitioned back to allowing open carry without a permit in 2015. 3 And other states that placed restrictions on open carry in recent decades have also removed those burdens.4 Similarly, for the first 162 years of its history open carry was a largely unremarkable part of daily life in California. From 1850, when California first became a state, until the Mulford Act of 1967, public carry of firearms in California (open or concealed) was entirely unregulated. And when California first deviated (or considered deviating) from this practice, its reasons for doing so were less than morally exemplary. The first restriction on public carry that California contemplated was a concealed-carry ban in 1856—which was intended to apply only to “Mexicans,” who were considered dangerous. See The Rise and Fall of California’s First Concealed-Carry Law, NRA Institute for Legislative Action (Jan. 1, 2013) (citing John David Borthwick, “THREE YEARS IN CALIFORNIA” (1857); Roger D. McGrath, GUNFIGHTERS, HIGHWAYMEN, & VIGILANTES: VIOLENCE ON THE FRONTIER (1984)), https://www.nraila.org/articles/20130101/the-rise-and-fallof-californias-first-concealed-carry-law.
Eventually, in 1967 California first criminalized the peaceful open carrying of a loaded handgun in the Mulford Act—legislation that was also tainted with racial animus. See Mulford Act, 1967 Cal. Stat. 2459 (codified as amended at various sections of Cal. Penal Code); Cal. Penal Code § 25850 (2024). Passed during a period of significant racial unrest, the Mulford Act was a legislative response to the Black Panther Party’s activities, which included openly carrying firearms to protest police behavior in AfricanAmerican communities. See Thaddeus Morgan, The NRA Supported Gun Control When the Black Panthers Had the Weapons, HISTORY (last updated May 28, 2025), https://www.history.com/articles/black-panthers-guncontrol-nra-support-mulford-act. The catalyzing event occurred when “30 members of the Black Panthers protested on the steps of the California statehouse armed with .357 Magnums, 12-gauge shotguns and .45-caliber pistols and announced, ‘The time has come for Black people to arm themselves.’” Id. The California legislature disagreed and responded by passing the Mulford Act. Id. Yet even then, it remained legal in California to openly carry a handgun, so long as it was unloaded. See Mulford Act, 1967 Cal. Stat. 2459.

The Los Angeles County Superior Court has revealed 147,000 cases of felony convictions were not successfully reported to the California Department of Justice. The public notice of the backlog of errors was posted on February 24, 2026. Because they were not reported, they were not included in the National Instant background Check System (NICS) criminal history records. It is possible some convicted felons were able to obtain firearms through licensed dealers because of this oversight. From lacourt.org:
Of the approximately 464,000 impacted cases, the Court has identified approximately 380,000 instances with convictions where the case’s ADR was not successfully reported to the DOJ. Of those, roughly 147,000 involved cases with felony convictions, and roughly 233,000 were cases with misdemeanor convictions. Approximately 84,000 cases were dismissals in which ADRs were not successfully reported to the DOJ. Of those, roughly 61,000 involved felony dismissals, and roughly 23,000 involved misdemeanor dismissals.
The convictions are being transmitted to the DOJ at the present time. Most of the records occurred from the 1980's to 2006. Some of the records are as late as 2023.
About 18% of the records are of cases being dismissed. These could have consequences for things such as criminal history checks. Such checks often include arrests. Without the record of a dismissal of charges, it would become more difficult for an individual to show he was not convicted of a crime.
This correspondent has not found any indication if the California Department of Justice will be doing checks to see if any firearms were transferred to people with felony convictions.
Analysis: Los Angeles County Superior Court handles court cases for a bit less than 10 million people. These cases are mostly from a period of over 20 years, more than 20 years ago. The average number of felony convictions in the United States over that period was about 500 per 100,000 adults per year. The average is probably higher in California, but assuming the national average, we would expect about 50,000 felony convictions per year, or about 1.15 million convictions over the 23 year period. Given these back of the envelope estimates, roughly 1 in 8 felony convictions in the period, in Los Angeles County were not input properly. This does not engender faith in the criminal justice system. Bad record keeping is what one expects in third world countries. This shows, in spite of platitudes about how important it is to keep guns away from those who should not have them, the actual performance of doing so was not a very high priority.
This correspondent does not believe it should be the highest priority, because such laws are of marginal use against violent criminals. They are primarily used to convince those who desire to follow the law they should not acquire firearms. Such an attempt does not work well. In Australia, when extreme gun control measures were put into effect, the population followed the arcane and difficult rules, but increased the number of firearms owned, per capita, anyway. People will go to considerable trouble to obtain legal firearms when they have the desire to have them. Australian bureaucracy followed the rules. The number of firearms owned increased. Those who hate an armed population were outraged. Now they are proposing even more restrictions. Rule-following is not what those who want the people disarmed desire. They want the people disarmed.
It is good to see proper record keeping. Bad record keeping undermines faith in government. Given the allegations of corrupt politics in California, and especially in Los Angeles, this correspondent has to wonder if any of the "mistakes" were "helped" by a "helpful" clerical staff. This correspondent has not seen any evidence of such "help". The more people see the state as corrupt or even bumbling, the more they see the value of an armed population.

The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said the man attempted to force his way inside a residence in the 2900 block of Hunt Drive around 9:15 p.m. and threatened to kill one of the people inside. The homeowner called 911 after repeatedly asking that person to leave.
According to the sheriff's office, the homeowner shot the suspect after he broke a window to gain entry into the home. Deputies responded to the scene, and the man was taken to a nearby hospital and then booked into the Sacramento County Main Jail on Friday morning.

I’m sure most everyone is familiar now with the seemingly sudden change in the Food Pyramid. The Food Pyramid has essentially been flipped on its head. Whereas, grains were considered a “foundational” food, meats (proteins), vegetables, and dairy are now considered to be foundational. I am very pleased to see this change at the federal government level because it’s going to impact all federal programs for the better, in my opinion, such as feeding children, the less fortunate, healthcare, and nutrition guidelines.

I went this morning for a AAA scan (Abdominal Aorta Aneurism). It is a sonogram to tell if my abdominal aorta is about to spring a leak. When they scheduled it a week ago, I old then it was a waste of time and money. I'm okay. The doc insisted, because he doesn't believe me when I tell him something. Evidently, this test is VERY fucking important.
So, I went this morning and got the scan done. I was right. It was a waste of time and money. Scan showed absolutely no problems. It was a wase of my time and your tax dollars.
On another note, I heard that the 82nd Infantry Division (Airborne) just got a warning order. The headquarters elements are moving east with the full division to follow shortly. That is interesting.

Barrier blind ammo is designed to pass through common obstacles like car doors, windows, drywall, plywood, or heavy clothing without significant change to its terminal performance. I recently tested G9 Defense Barrier Blind Hollow Point ammunition in 6.5 Creedmoor. I must admit that I was only secondarily interested in its barrier blind qualities. My primary interest was in the fact that the ammo is machine-turned out of solid copper. According to G9, this gives it greater consistency in density over traditional jacketed bullets. The lower standard deviation of ballistic coefficient, in turn, provides higher accuracy at extended ranges. During my …

On March 17, 2026, in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, the court certified a settlement between the Attorney General of California and the plaintiffs in the case of Junior Sports Magazines Inc. et al., and Rob Bonta. The First Amendment and the Second Amendment were big winners. From the Court Order:
III. JUDICIAL DECLARATION
IT IS HEREBY DECLARED that Section 22949.80, in its entirety, violates the First Amendment of the United States Constitution on its face and as applied to Plaintiffs.
IV. PERMANENT INJUNCTION
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant shall be permanently enjoined from enforcing section 22949.80. The Attorney General is further directed to issue an alert through an information bulletin or other ordinary communications notifying all District Attorneys, County Counsels, and City Attorneys in California that enforcement of Section 22949.80 has been permanently enjoined in its entirety.
In addition, AG was ordered to pay Lawyers fees to the lawyers for the Firearms Policy Coallition (FPC) and the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF). This case started almost four years ago when the California legislature passed a statute designed to chill First Amendment protected speech in favor of the Second Amendment. The law became Section 22940.80. Alan Gottlieb and Dave Workman wrote about it at AmmoLand in July of 2022:
Several plaintiffs, including gun rights organizations, are challenging changes in state law created by the passage of Assembly Bill 2571, which makes it unlawful for any firearm industry members to advertise, market, or arrange for placement of an advertising or marketing communication concerning any firearm-related product in a manner that is designed, intended, or reasonably appears to be attractive to minors. The plaintiffs are asking for a preliminary injunction against the enforcement of the law.
On October, 2024, the District Court ruled against the First and Second Amendment defenders. The defenders immediately appealed to a three judge panel of the Ninth Circuit. On September 13, 2023, the three judge panel reversed the District Court and found the law to be unconstitutional under the First Amendment. It was a unanimous decision. Then the State of California asked for a en banc panel to re-hear the case and reverse the three judge panel. Alan Gottlieb wrote about it on AmmoLand.
En banc reviews have been used in the Ninth Circuit to kill positive three judge panel decisions on the Second Amendment. The Ninth Circuit refused to re-hear the case en banc on February 28, 2024. The case was sent back to the District Court. On October 1, 2025, the Preliminary Injunction was ordered by the District Court. On March 17, 2026, the parties agreed to a settlement. As shown above, all of Section 22949.80 was struck down. The agreed settlement, approved of by the Court, awarded $550,000 to the law firm of Michel & Associates, P.C., who represented the Firearms Policy Coallition (FPC) and $350,000 to the Law offices of Donald Kilmer, who represented the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF). In addition, Kostas Moros reports on X that another $480,000 is to be paid in the Safari Club International case. Kostos reports the two cases are on the same issues.
Analysis: The law was an egregious violation of the First Amendment, in an attempt to stop support for the Second Amendment, from the beginning. It should never have been passed. The State of California then compounded their contempt for the First and Second Amendments by dragging out this case for almost four years, costing the state thousands of dollars in lawyers’ fees.
The fees will not cost those who filed the bill and voted for the law, or those who defended the law in court any money at all. They were/are spending other people's money. This is expected in California.
