Well, for now, people who want to exercise their right to self defense will not have to beg government officials to do so...the 9th circuit court of appeals actually ruled correctly, for once, and upheld concealed carry in California...

Second Amendment Victory Eased Concealed Carry Rules Upheld in California Striking Down Requirements for Need - Katie Pavlich

Back in February, the infamously liberal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down California's issuance of concealed carry permits based on "need' as unconstitutional. A reminder of the ruling:

The infamously liberal Federal Ninth Circuit Court of appeals has struck down a California law practically banning people from carry a gun in public for self defense in the Peruta v. San Diego case. The decision struck down requirements of "need" or "cause" to carry a handgun in public based on violent threats to a person as unconstitutional. In other words, the State cannot restrict an individual from carrying a firearm because a government official doesn't think they face enough threats to justify doing so and affirms carrying a gun in public for self defense is in fact a protected right under the Second Amendment.

The ruling based much of its decision on the prior Supreme Court ruling in District of Columbia v. Heller and makes clear that the right to "bear arms" is equal in definition to "carrying arms.
That ruling prompted California Attorney General Kamala Harris to issue an appeal. But according to a new ruling from the Court yesterday, that appeal is no longer valid, challenges to the original ruling can no longer be filed and the easing of restrictions on how concealed carry permits are issued in the state will stand, meaning bureaucrats will no longer decide who "needs" to carry a firearm.

Ignorant, hyperbolic nonsense and idiocy.

The law was upheld as Constitutional, how it was was being implemented was at issue:

'The Peruta decision does not strike down California’s statutes about licensing for the carrying of firearms. The decision simply says that the “good cause” requirement may not be interpreted in a manner that disable typical law-abiding citizens from being able to obtain carry permits. The state statute is fine; the way the statute was interpreted by many California jurisdictions is not.'
