An initiative that San Francisco voters approved last November banning residents from owning handguns violated state law.

Forget state law...it violates the freakin' 2nd Ammendment!

I don't think handguns should be banned. But should judges be allowed on overrule what voters have decided?

as per post # 4

i would have liked to see a ruling that it violated the 2nd amendment to the US Constitution

what we got here is a reaffirmation of a state's ability to outlaw gun ownership

"overstepped local government authority and intruded into an area regulated by the state."

maybe you have to take these things one step at a time, and overturning this city proposition is certainly a good thing, but we need more

The SF Bay Area is a foreign country. To get just a small glimpse of how foreign it is, find a copy of "The Cuckoo's Egg" by Cliff Stoll. Even though he was an anstronomy major deeply involved in pure hardcore science every day, he and his ilk still lived a bizarre fantasyland hippie dippie life that is virtually unknown outside the bay area and Berkeley. I had to re-read some sections of that book to make sure I understood what those folks were thinking and doing.

I have a CCW permit that is a state permit, albeit issued by my county. As a state permit, it is supposed to be good anywhere in the state. I understand that SF will not honor it. I wish a state court would take SF to task over this issue also. I go there only rarely, but this irks me.

"The National Rifle Association sued on behalf of gun owners, advocates and dealers the day after the measure passed."

Thanks to the NRA.[Lately, it seems like all I have to do is copy and paste that. Whoo Hoo!]

Proposition H, which won a 58 percent majority, would have outlawed possession of handguns by all city residents except law enforcement officers and others who needed the guns for professional purposes,
such as career criminals ...
