Couple of thoughts. 1. Yea right they are selling $350 Shotguns in Beverly Hills. 2. so how many of these idiots will be interviewed in the future with no idea how the gun just went off? 3. Well come to the real world. 4. When has the upper crust in that part of the world been safe. Surely not the summer of 69

Nope. They voted time and time again denying fellow Californians the right to keep and bear arms. They have voted for and supported ALL of this rioting nonsense. Ive got family that live around there, I love them to death.. however, they all think the same Californian way. Many in the area are hyper indoctrinated and because of their wealth they thought their voting habits and support of radical movements would never hit close to home.. now that it has they deserve to endure the actualization of their actions.

They need to live in the cesspool they created for themselves. Im all for citizens engaging in their 2A rights.. however NY and California resident elites have purposely and consistently denied their fellow "lesser" neighbors 2A rights.. and only now they change their tune because what they have created is at their front door? No way. They wanted to bail out these rioters, they wanted to defund police, they wanted certain radical people in office..
They made this unarmed pseudo utopian bed, they deserve to sleep in it.

From the article:

Regardless, he knows many new gun owners will fail to get any training at all. "We're going to have a lot of guns out there in a lot of untrained people's hands."

Yep. I might be 'judgemental' but with the typical arrogance and narcissism of the 'affluent' how many will 'lower themselves' to obtain any sort of training or even basic instruction ?

This has 'trendy' and 'fad' written all over it - nothing else. I foresee a few cocktail party disasters on the horizon.

Nope. They voted time and time again denying fellow Californians the right to keep and bear arms. They have voted for and supported ALL of this rioting nonsense.

Of course they did - and more - but like typical dems (and affluent ones) they are very fickle and will flip on a dime, shift gears, whatever to meet their needs - AND I am sure the standard 'for me and not thee' still applies. Remember the credo of the affluent - 'My money makes me right'.

I'd like to learn a lot more about that "help in securing a concealed carry permit from the County Sheriff's Department". CCW approval is virtually impossible for the average Joe in LA County, and requires a significant upfront fee just to try your luck with the application process. The affluent can afford to risk the fee, of course, but ought to stand the same risk of a "denial" that Joe Average faces. I just can't shake the feeling that the "help" provided by the security consultant will include whispered advice about whose hand to grease.

"In Beverly Hills, the craving for additional security dates to the riot that followed an otherwise peaceful Black Lives Matter protest in May 2020, with unprecedented looting along Rodeo Drive..."



How about this one:

In Hiroshima, 200,000 Japanese died following the otherwise peaceful dropping of the world's first nuclear weapon.

or this one:

In the USSR, 20,000,000 people were killed during WW2 following the otherwise peaceful Operation Barbarossa.

He's probably just there to provide emotional support.

THIS is what they are going to have too much of:

And other incidents of overreaction on the streets. As well as panic firing at hold up artists that wind up injuring a number of bystanders that might include tiny children.

When faced with aggression, call a mental health worker.

From the article:
"Everyone has a general sense of constant fear, which is very sad. We're used to this being like Mayberry."

Somehow I don't think Beverly Hills was ever like 'Mayberry'. They are just now having to deal with the crime being violent and now coming to them - as opposed to it being on a 'white collar', non-violent level I am SURE existed previously.

Let's hope it's the first in a string of dominoes.

California Sheriff Indicted In Concealed Carry Bribery Scandal

The sheriff's accused of giving "VIPs" access to their right to carry, while leaving average residents in a legal limbo.

My personal take on it.....

 

[3MTA3]

Can't wait until they find out that real guns don't have infinite ammunition capacity, unlike their movies.

Please tell me Alec Baldwin doesn't live in Beverly Hills...

I hope they shoot each other over garden gnomes and grass that's too long

Obviously these shotguns are for home protection. The idea of the educated California upper crust taking a man killer out in public. Tut.

I hope Beverly Hills Guns isn't driving the Barneby Jones era, 38 Special in the unlocked desk drawer. 50 years in TV before the specialized gun rooms started to appear. Unlocked automatic weapons hanging on the walls are much cooler and illegal in California.

Maybe someone should mention that......

Shooting people over property is generally frowned upon.
