SANTA ANA, Calif. -- Newly appointed Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens says she intends to review all the concealed-weapons permits her indicted predecessor issued and revoke those of gun owners who can't prove a legal need to carry the weapons, it was reported Wednesday.

Sheriff Michael S. Carona, who resigned in January to focus on his upcoming federal corruption trial, had issued more than 1,100 active carry permits -- among the most issued by any sheriff or police chief in the state, according to the Los Angeles Times. Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca, by contrast, has issued fewer than 400.

Many were issued to traditional holders: judges, prosecutors, jewelers or others whose occupation leaves them in fear for their safety. But others included wealthy white-collar businessmen, doctors, dentists, Republican party activists and financial contributors to Carona's political campaigns, The Times reported.

In its October indictment, a federal grand jury accused Carona of having issued a concealed-weapons permit to a businessman who had previously been convicted of unlawfully possessing a concealed weapon.

Hutchens said yesterday in remarks reported by The Times that she intends to review each permit and determine whether the gun owners demonstrated an immediate fear for their safety or held an occupation so inherently dangerous that they needed to carry concealed weapons in public.

"The important thing to me is they need to have demonstrated a need," Hutchens said, according to The Times. And if there's no need, she'll revoke the permits. "That's probably not going to be popular with a lot of people," she said.

Just looking at her mug puts me in fear for my life.

Fugly gal with too much power.

Yes I am being horrible, but crap like that really pisses me off.

Your permit can't be revoked if you never got one in the first place.

Unbelievable.

Simple solution: don't ask the government for permission to exercise a right.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

Amen brother, amen. and at TA would say when they come for yours:

CLICK CLICK

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

They will only come for what they know you have.

But really, there won't ever be nationwide door to door gun sweeps in this country.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

And if there's no need, she'll revoke the permits. "That's probably not going to be popular with a lot of people," she said.



NEVER TURN IN YOUR GUNS............ EVER........... THE DAY YOU DO IS THE DAY YOU ACKNOWELGE A POWER HIGHER THAN YOUR GOD WHO GAVE YOU YOUR FREEDOMS!!!

Exactamundo: Natural law or positive law? Do we get our rights from our Creator or from government? That my friends is the question. If you say the latter, then go ahead and turn in your weapons and gold, and go buy a big jar of vaseline.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

+1 !!!!

Wake up people.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

You acknowledge that authority prior to turning in your guns.

You acknowledge it when you apply for a permit to carry.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

You got that right partner.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

I will not live in a state that does not allow open carry. An armed society is a polite society. You don't hear about cops kicken doors down in my WTSHTF small town location. What the hell do you think gun registration is for??? So the criminals can register all their guns??

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

Boy that makes me feel so much better.:sarc:

:thinkey:

Has not the gov't already done that... like in the last 2-3 years in select SHTF locations?

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

Nationwide gun sweeps?

No, they have not.

(Oh and if you are referring to Katrina - the locals were, for the most part, vacated.)

How do you suppose a door-to-door gunsweep would go down in a your neck of the woods?

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

It's not gonna happen.

The only way people will lose there arms, is incrementally, over time.

Nobody is coming to your house to take them away.

Relax.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

Ahh well... you did say nationwide - an un-doable task to be sure. However I haven't enough love for my government to believe that they don't want to. Given the resources to do it? You can have your conjecture. I will have mine.

Badly. Very Badly. But it wouldn't happen in my neck of the woods.:D

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

They don't have the manpower to do it.

Not only that, I know enough people in military and in law enforcement to know that they would not carry out the task (against their friends, family and neighbors - law abiding Americans).

I'm telling you, disarmement is an INCREMENTAL process. They take away little by little until one day, there is nothing left to take.

Trust me, the LAPD is not going to march into Compton and ask the Bloods and the Mexican Mafia (over 50,000 strong) to give up turn over their machine guns.

Ain't happenin.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

Yep, like boiling the frog, or the Fabian socialists, whichever you prefer.

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits

Re: New OC Sheriff To Review All Concealed-Weapons Permits
 

There wasn't a sudden gun grab in Britain. It was an incremental process that began with licensing and registration.

Same thing in Australia.
