"Sadly, I must be a pessimist (or more accurately, a realist) in concluding that at the present time it has absolutely no chance of passing here in California."

Leave Kalifornia - and emigrate to Red Nation. Why stay in a state where not only your gun rights are threatened - but also a state doomed to becoming ever-more a Brazilified society of a few grandees living in Spielbergian opulence, a small middle class servicing the grandees, and hordes of Third World poor (most illegal aliens or their first-generation progeny)?

Already, there is a net exodus of 100,000+ middle-class European-Americans and blacks fleeing Kalifornia - a trend so pronounced that Univ. of Michigan demographer William Frey has made studying it his specialty.

With the demographics of Kalifornia, taxes on that shrinking share of the public that is middle class must soar to fund Kalifornia's fabled welfare state. That in turn will increase the exodus of the middle class.

Don't be the last guy on your street to list your home for sale.

Scandals of antigun politicians - from Kalifornia to Manhattan!

The thought of leaving California has definitely crossed our minds. But there are various reasons (job, family, etc.) why we'll probably be stuck here for several more years.

I certainly don't see any evidence of a net flight from the state. Right now the housing market is as hot as it's ever been, as demand far outstrips supply.
