it seems so contrary doesn't it? one law says you can protect yourself, the other says you cannot. you can own a weapon, but cannot have it on your person. you wonder, how can this law exist when the other seems to clearly prohibit it? i wonder that too everyday about almost every single moronic law. but they are smart, they'll find a little intra-state commerse clause in the state constitution that enables them to spew this crap out. I live in AZ and thank god we aren't controlled by liberals, yet, california's great energy policies may give us yet more great citizens of the ROK.
