San Francisco Pays NRA $380,000 for Successful Proposition H Lawsuits
Fairfax, Va. – The City of San Francisco has paid $380,000 to the National Rifle Association (NRA) as reimbursement for legal fees incurred while striking down Proposition H, passed by San Francisco voters in November 2005. ... Combined with more than $200,000 in fees paid to City lawyers defending the ordinance and an equal value of lawyers time donated to the City for the unsuccessful defense of this case, the total costs to City taxpayers in defending against Proposition H, a civilian disarmament attempt, approaches $800,000. Proposition H would have banned civilian handgun possession by city residents and banned the sale, transfer or distribution of any firearm or ammunition within the city. In addition, all San Francisco residents would have been jailed for a minimum of 90 days and up to six months if caught in possession of a handgun. All gun and ammunition sales and transfers would have been prohibited, and the one gun store and two antique firearm auction houses in San Francisco would have been forced out of business. Additionally, since action films involved the transfer of real prop firearms, no such films could have been made in the city.

Face it, we have a right to own firearms. You can whine and moan all you want, but until you successfully repeal the 2nd Amendment, you will not be able to win a lawsuit banning firearms. Even if you manage to get the 2A repealed in language, you cannot remove the right for people to arm themselves as that right has existed before there was a Constitution for the city of San Francisco to ignore.
For all the noise the anti gunners make, they sure don't appear to have a winning record to back them up, do they?
