FPC to California AG: Revoke Your “Good Moral Character” Legal Alert and Comply with Bruen Before We Sue​

SACRAMENTO, CA (June 30, 2022) – Last night, Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) sent a letter to California Attorney General Rob Bonta informing him that if local concealed-carry issuing agencies use the state’s so-called “good moral character” requirement in the way he recently called for in response to NYSRPA v. Bruen, it will cause them “to defend far more Second Amendment claims than they have ever faced.” The letter can be viewed at FPCLegal.org.

“Conditioning a carry license on a discretionary evaluation of an applicant’s ‘good moral character’ is patently inconsistent with Bruen’s repeated statements that the carry right may not be denied by non-objective criteria applied by a local government official,” says the letter by attorney Bradly Benbrook of Benbrook Law Group. “Bruen considered and rejected New York’s ‘proper cause’ requirement for a carry license, but it left no doubt that it was the discretionary aspect of the licensing regime—requiring citizens to convince a government official that they deserved a license based on their circumstances—that fell outside the historical tradition of permissible firearm regulation.”

Why isn't the FPC doing anything about what just happened with NY's nonsense that just got signed into law?

Yes... And the NY component to have a neighbor comply with attesting to (what) exactly? Is the same as characteristic in any form to necessitate permission being granted. Same goes for training, safe storage within a home and more. And oh, the sensitive locations bullshit which basically means you can't take your firearm anywhere is going to get slammed down hard as well.

But they'll throw whatever they can at the wall right now to see what sticks! And they will then expand from there. The State is using our money and forcing us to challenge them with more limited resources! Not sure why every single Firearm related organization and or lobbyist aren't joining together in an organized front to challenge every single State (Post Bruen) now to ensure a level playing field across all States!
