Considering that the point of carrying a gun is self-defense, that under Calipornia's current Open Carry laws the gun must be unloaded, and that issuance of concealed carry permits is discretionary--which, in practice means that the Chief Law Enforcement Officer likes you, which often means you have made a hefty contribution to his re-election campaign--it seems to me that this setback may actually bolster the movement to get Cali's concealed carry laws fixed.
