This video analyzes the Ninth Circuit's ruling in Baird v. Bont, exposing California's open carry law (Penal Code 26150(b)(2)) as a facade. The law, which theoretically allows open carry in counties under 200,000 residents, has never resulted in a permit being issued in ten years due to a lack of application processes and enforcement. The court found this deliberate non-functionality to be a violation of Second Amendment rights, particularly in the post-Bruen era, where modern justifications are insufficient to uphold restrictions without historical precedent.
