A federal judge on Monday blocked California's ban on gun shows at county fairs, ruling that the state is violating the rights of sellers and would-be buyers by prohibiting transactions for firearms that can be bought at any gun shop.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Mark Holcomb halts enforcement of two state laws, both written by Democrat state Sen. Dave Min, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. The first, effective Jan. 2022, barred gun shows at the Orange County Fair, and the other, which took effect this year, extended the ban to county fairgrounds on state-owned land.
Gun shows attract thousands of prospective buyers to local fairgrounds. Under a separate state law, not affected by the ruling, actual purchase of the firearm is completed at a licensed gun store after a 10-day waiting period and a background check, the Chronicle said. Another state law, also unaffected by Monday's decision, has prohibited gun shows since 2020 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds in San Diego County. The Cow Palace in Daly City, which formerly held five gun shows per year, ended them in 2020 after multiple legislative measures to ban those shows were vetoed by Govs. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jerry Brown.
"Anti-gun-owner politicians are trying to eliminate the 'gun culture' for future generations by, among other things, banning folks from getting together at a gun show to learn about guns, gun safety and gun-control politics," Chuck Michel, the Rifle & Pistol Association's president, said Monday
