Fear and Loathing in Kalifornia

Problem, reaction, solution; this is the normal chain of events in the People's Republik of Kalifornia. With the Spirit of Liberty having been renewed in this Republic and its many states, many people have chosen to exercise their rights to openly carry firearms where it is permitted to do so. The commonly accepted mantra is: "If you don't USE your rights, you will LOSE your rights."
Well, it would appear that California legislators see things differently, for they are attempting to ban open carry from the state. Of course as of today, the law allows open carry of a weapon, provided that it is not in a "ready to fire" condition, i.e, the firearm must not have ammunition "attached" to it any manner that renders it ready to fire. However, one may currently carry an unloaded weapon [holstered or otherwise visually discernible] and said individual may carry loaded magazines on their person as well. For those of you in more Liberty-friendly states, unloaded open carry must sound absolutely unheard of; this is the because in 1967, the Black Panthers showed up at the state legislature in Sacramento carrying loaded weapons. The legislature soon changed the law in response to limit open carrying to unloaded weapons.
It seems that now that people feel that their rights are becoming so infringed that we must reclaim them, more legislation is forthcoming to further restrict them. Apparently a big reason for this new draconian legislation is the inability of police officers of immediately being able to determine whether a weapon is loaded or unloaded. I have heard far too many statements from officers or their spokesholes who are concerned for officer safety.
A right is a right is a right...laws cannot revoke rights or infringe upon them. However, the onus falls upon We the People to reclaim our rights. We do not need a majority vote, we only need remind those who would infringe upon our rights the cost of doing so. Until We the People have decided to take such a bold stance, compromises and "reasonable infringement" will ever devour our rights! I have lost faith in politicians and the voting process as I have lost faith in far too many of my countrymen. I fight for the rights of myself and my family for generations to come...I need not have any others support, though I welcome it and offer support likewise.
As Samuel Adams once said: "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
Some of us will carry our weapons, without special permits, whenever and wherever we see fit to do so; some of us will accept laws as the final word...where do you stand?
