Californians are arming up for self-defense as the U.S. Border Patrol carries out street drop-offs of illegal immigrants in and around cities like San Diego.
The New York Post reported that “roughly 125,000 migrants have been released onto the streets in the San Diego area since September,” and many area residents are reacting by purchasing firearms and ammunition for themselves and their families.
Cory Gautereaux owns a gun store, Firearms Unlimited California, in northeast San Diego and he has seen business increase as more and more illegals are let loose on the streets.
Gautereaux said, “The problem for people that live around the gun store is the street dropoffs.”
He added, “That’s driven business to us.”
On October 11, 2023, the Daily Mail noted that the Border Patrol “[released] 13,000 migrants onto San Diego streets in a month due to overflowing shelters.”
The Post pointed out that gun shop customer Keith Carnevale echoed Gautereaux’s observations, “My wife and I have had home defense guns for many years. Recently, though, with all the stuff that’s happening south of the border and all the people coming over, my concerns have broadened.”
Carnevale indicated his whole family is now armed.
California has more gun controls than any state in the Union. Those controls include a ten-day waiting period for gun purchases; this means Californians who fear for their lives and go to a gun store to acquire a firearm for self-defense have to wait ten business days before taking possession of the gun.

I would never recommend buying 80% polymer guns that you can make yourself with Glock completion kits. The government will protect you from the millions of illegal aliens they are dumping in your cities.
IOW about 10% of the population of San Diego is now composed of illegal aliens who arrived just in the last 9 months.
In addition to the 20% that already live there.
But the Great Replacement is a “conspiracy theory”.

“Surely you jest”.....

Not exactly. Those illegal aliens don’t stay around here very long. Way too expensive and congested.
Bigger news: California has gun stores?
I’m surprised they even allow firearms in their crummy communist state.
I’m not im commiefornia so I have an AR-15.
democrats / marxists are paying the way of 20 million illegals to invade the USA to vote for socialism . They are giving the illegals licenses or IDs to vote for socialism / democrats
This is an extreme threat to America freedom capitalism civilization.
Mises proved socialism can never work and will result in the destruction of civilization.

The state government's way of telling you to buy a gun when you are at "somewhat concerned" instead of waiting until "fear for your life".
Self-defense is legal in California?
Don’t worry, Gavin will get his gangsters right on it and create “affordable housing” for them.
***have to wait ten business days before taking possession of the gun.****
Lots of people in California got the surprise of their lives when, in 1992, the Rodney King riots sent people to the gun stores only to find out they had to wait ten days to pick up their protection.
BUT: when California wanted to pass an onerous gun law they released Pat Purdy from a mental institution, allowed him to buy firearms in violation of State and Federal Law, passing the waiting period, shot up the Stockton school killing students and himself. The State pulled out their shelved A-s-s-ault weapons ban bill and passed it before any opposition could be mounted against it.
125K on the Streets of San Diego——
Lots of Canyons in that place.

California is committing suicide … and the Governor and Aunt Nancy don’t even realize it. That’s how stupid that family is.
Use a gun to defend yourself in CA, with their leftist activist judges? With California’s leftist juries?
Unless you want your life permanently destroyed, I would not recommend it.
Wars from many different countries are ALL coming here
So glad we left Carlsbad for Arizona almost 30 yrs ago. It was beautiful but so expensive to live there. Add in the politics, crime, and immigration and even Lil Stevie Wonder could see where California was headed.
Gruesome Newsom and Nanzi Pelois know exactly what they're doing - importing slaves whose children will drive down wages for citizens.
They don't care if other parts of California decline - they got theirs piece of the taxpayer pie and are getting some more.
