Guns in Cali
California has some pretty strict restrictions on guns. But if you’re politically connected, you can bypass those laws:
Shortly after he took office, Orange County Sheriff Michael S. Carona and one of his top assistants deputized 86 friends, relatives, political contributors and others, giving them badges, powers of arrest and in some cases guns — despite the fact that none had background investigations and some had not been fully trained.
Corruption at its finest.

The sad part is that Carona has generally been one of the good guys on the CCW issue, relatively speaking.
