		<description><![CDATA[Gerald, Agree completely. There&#039;s as many gun owners in NY as voted in the last election, 4.5 million gun owners, 4.5 voted out of 12 million registered. cuomo was elected with 2.9 million votes. If just HALF the states gun owners vote the gun issue we can put anyone in there we want. If we cant we are truly in a sad state of affairs.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[All the more to vote against guns. Percentage is the only way to look at it. As 100% are eligible to vote. 21% is just not enough, almost as bad as the 18% we have here in NY. Ya get above 35% and they dont mess with you. History has shown this to be the case.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While everyone is celebrating, nobody has mentioned that in order to exercise a RIGHT that is enumerated in the constitution (not granted by the constitution)this verdict only applys to people who have already been through a DROS, or have other documentation already on file with the state.  

Other courts have already held that a right that is limited by a license requirement (effectively so in this case) is NO RIGHT AT ALL!!!!!!!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The statement made by the court, in part, states:

&quot;After considering the evidence and 
the arguments, the Court concludes that Penal Code §26815(a)and § 27540(a)&#039;s 10-
day waiting periods impermissibly violate the Second Amendment as applied to those persons who already lawfully possess a firearm as confirmed by the 
AFS, to those who possess a valid CCW
license, and to those who possess both 
a valid COE and a firearm as confirmed by the AFS system, if the background check on these individuals is 
completed and approved prior to the expiration of 10 days.&quot;  See the provided link, page 2, lines 9 thru 14 - https://www.dropbox.com/s/fi446aithzlrcv0/silvester.pdf?dl=0

The key additional point (not  included in the AccurateShooter article - 3rd-to-last paragraph) is the &quot;...those persons who already lawfully possess a firearm as confirmed by the AFS...&quot;.  I read that to mean that if you are a second-time or subsequent buyer in CA, the 10-day wait does not apply and the firearm should be released as soon as the seller can check the computer to confirm a prior purchase.  

I found nothing in the doc that states when the ruling will be effective, whether there is any automatic delay to allow for the defendant (the State of California&#039;s Attorney General) to appeal, and what the impact is on waiting periods currently in process.

Wow!  [And I just finished a DROS wait yesterday.]]]></description>
