I think this goes back to the issue that LA County denies almost all request for a CCW permit. One of the few and worst about permits. And they wonder why so many are carrying guns they don’t know about

So if I can’t run away risking being shot in the back, and I can’t conceal myself by trapping myself in a corner…
I should improvise a weapon and take on the armed gunman..?
(AKA Bringing a knife to a gunfight)

Gotcha..!
Sounds like a plan..!

Thanks LA County Sheriff’s Dpt, I feel much safer now..!

Now I won’t feel so vulnerable leaving my gun at home because you don’t trust me to protect myself or my family..!

All of the scenarios exclude a trained CCW holder. Lord forbid someone protects themselves and or others with a firearm.
