SACRAMENTO, CA —-(Ammoland.com)- Today, civil rights advocates at Firearms Policy Coalition have issued the following statement:
Recently, Attorney General Becerra said, “Here in California, we respect the Constitution and follow the law.” But neither is true.
This morning, our Legislative Advocate, Craig DeLuz, served on California Attorney General Xavier Becerra and his Department of Justice a petition challenging their illegal underground regulation. This petition was also sent to the Office of Administrative Law, the state’s regulatory watchdog agency.
In spite of an unanimously-decided Court of Appeal published opinion issued in February, and a permanent injunction issued weeks ago, Becerra’s DOJ continues to promulgate and enforce that same illegal underground regulation. Their stunning and troubling disregard for lawful court orders is contrary to the rule of law.
Becerra’s weaponized Department of Justice regularly attacks the fundamental rights and property of law-abiding gun owners in law enforcement actions, their lobbying of the Legislature, and litigation.
Indeed, Becerra and his army of anti-gun DOJ lawyers and special agents ignore the text of the Constitution and California’s statutes, forcing their anti-gun agenda on millions of people—the law and civil rights be damned.
Becerra also recently said that, “in California, we believe our communities are safest when we have trust between our law enforcement & the communities they serve.” But such trust is impossible, and undeserved, when the state’s top law enforcement officer shows a total lack of regard for the People, their rights, and the laws he has a duty to follow and enforce fairly.
If Attorney General Becerra and the Department of Justice want to build trust and be respected, they should start by being trust-worthy and giving respect to law-abiding gun owners and their fundamental, individual right to keep and bear arms.

If he is ignoring court orders shouln’t he be jailed for contempt of court, like any one else that ignored a court order.
You Have to understand he is in California and Hispanic they don’t have to live by the law!
What we have here is judicial tyranny. From the top, (CIA, FBI. and all the way to the lower courts).
This clown is just a growing number of hispanics that are here to fight our way of life and bring it in line with the shitholes they came from. There is an “undocumented lawyer in N.Y.” If you are illegal it is not possible to practice a profession that requires a license or it seems everything he does could be thrown out. They are running roughshod over us and being allowed to do so. If we had a DOJ leader with a pair it might be a different story..
gov. brown got an ILLEGAL ALIEN able to pass the bar in california. your first sentence says it all, especially in california. i ask all the time why people allow this. never get an answer!
These traitors all sowre the same oath to upohd, protect, fdefend both the US and their State’s Constitutions. Swearing an oath then failing to honour and perform upon it is a form of perjury. It rises to a felony level crime These dirtbags won’t straighten out until someine “bigger” than they are begins to bring and prosecute such charges against them. If “Javi the Beast” were to be formally charged withhis his perjury, he’d be out of offie and disarmed until things are sorted out. If the charges stick, he’ll never be able to hold public office again. Don’t forget,… Read more »
DemocRATic communist/muslem/latino party members will follow their own laws just like moHAMmedans follow their own laws. Damn the Constitution and the LAWS of the LAND. This is demonstrated DAILY by these ANTI-Americans who have gained control of the local and state governments. The True America People suffer under the TYRANNICAL actions of the few “elites”. WAKE UP People. Remove these fascists that are ruling over you as if you are a SUBJECT instead of a CITIZEN !!!!!!!
Look at his name Xavier Becerra it reeks Hispanic
Just another liberal who thinks he is above the law.
Not only is HE above the law, the State of CA is above the law. Trump’s Attorney General is a “Deep-State” guy and will take no action.
It’s great to challenge on this issue, but what issue is it? What enforcement of what law is cited?
Riddle this if you will. At what point, better yet, when will it come to pass that every attempt to rewrite Firearm Laws, does in fact become a blatant COVERT attempt to undermine and overthrow the Constitution of the United States of America? How about right now? Today?. The correct response to theses “Communist Politicians”, each and every time that they “Go-A-Gun-Grabbing” we, the Citizenry, must serve them “NOTICE”, in writing to “Cease and Desist” their ACTIONS. We must inform them that “Their Actions” are now deemed as “Treasonous” and “Subversive” under the guise of the United States Constitution (… Read more »
Remember…. they don’t hate your guns, or your ideology…. they hate YOU! And “YOU” includes Republicans, Democrats, Blacks, Whites, Jews, Christians, etc. They are the elite and they consider themselves above everyone else. They believe they are smarter than everyone else. Yet, they are afraid of you. If they were not afraid, they would not act as they do, ignoring the laws, ignoring the Constitution of the nation and or the state. They swear an oath to protect and preserve both and then they do things to violate both. They have been moving to nullify the 2nd Amendment. At the… Read more »
