The sheriff's department previously suspended enforcement of its decision after the county counsel's office declared gun stores essential businesses.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is closing gun stores Thursday in unincorporated areas of the county and the 42 cities where it provides law enforcement, after suspending efforts earlier this week following the county counsel's office declaring gun stores essential businesses during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Too late man, there’s literally millions of Republican gun owners who have already been buying their guns.

You don’t wait for a crisis.

You prepare for one before you have a crisis.

How many time shave I read : LEO are on our side and would never confiscate our guns.

LEO are gov’t employees and I do not trust them.
They will do what they have to top keep their wages and cushy pensions and retire and live like kings at age 52. Like the coward deputy from Parkland. His pension was $108,000 per year.

It makes perfect sense for these liberal dictators and assorted Democrat control freaks. Release the criminals and then turn around and prohibit the law abiding from being able to defend and protect themselves.

You couldn't be more wrong.

I know people who conduct backgrounds and they've been inundated for weeks now. So many in fact the lines have been jammed to the point of lengthy delays.

“I know people who conduct backgrounds and they’ve been inundated for weeks now”

I bought a gun last week. Took 6 hours for the background to get approval and it crashed 3 times.
Had to got to 3 stores to find ammo.

Well I guess closing gun shops will stop the virus spread just like shutting down liquor sales.

Correct.
In Texas a co-worker got “delayed”.
The actual law states “3 business days” but the retail outlet’s FFL is saying “check back in 3 or 4 weeks. Academy is the retail outlet for anyone curious.

“The NICS examiner will provide the FFL with the date of the third business day after the firearm check was initiated. Business days do not include the day the check was initiated, Saturdays, Sundays, and any day state offices in the state of purchase are closed. If the FFL has not received from the NICS a final determination after three business days have elapsed since the delay response, it is within the FFL’s discretion whether or not to transfer the firearm (if state law permits the transfer). If the FFL transfers the firearm, the FFL must mark “No resolution was provided within three business days” on line 21d of the ATF Form 4473. It is recommended the FFL record the date provided in the delay response on which the firearm may be lawfully transferred under federal law if a final determination of proceed or denied is not received from the NICS.”

Gotta chuckle. Best way to fight the Coronavirus is to close gun stores and release prisoners. You can’t make this stuff up!

In my opinion every one of these gun stores should take immediate legal action against their state and local governments. In fact any business forced to close by these orders should sue the entity that issued these orders. It might be better to stay open and make them actually enforce the closure order, then sue until the cows come home.

Brilliant. Will he also station extra guards to protect the stores from looters?

I wonder what authority they are citing? It’s commonplace for government to act first and seek lawful legitimacy after the fact.
