San Diego County has gone from roughly 1,100 concealed carry permits to well over 30,000. [FLAG: confirm the 30,000 figure before publishing. This is Michael's number on air, not the Sheriff's.] This week Sheriff Kelly Martinez sat down in our studio for a full hour, and one answer stopped the room: if your CCW application gets denied, you can reapply the next day. No waiting period, nothing in statute. Both CCW instructors at our desk had been telling students otherwise.
That was not the only thing she put on the record. Her office issued 29 temporary gun violence restraining orders this entire year, and 11 permanent ones across several years, in a county of three and a half million people. She walks us through 41 years in the department, including ten of them working domestic terrorism cases undercover, and she explains why she still will not tell you her personal opinion on gun ownership. We also tell her, to her face, where we think she has it wrong.
