Orange County, CA .. The Full Disclosure Network® presents Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens, the National Rifle Association’s Ed Worley and , former OC Sheriff Lt. Bill Hunt in a video news report covering the new policy implemented by Sheriff Hutchins regarding issuing CCW’s in Orange County.
During the 15 minute video, citizen gun owners who attended a hearing before the Orange County Board of Supervisors testified their dissatisfaction with the Sheriff, a political appointee and her new policy. Many speakers suggested that she has her own agenda, is intending to impose the undesireable policies of Los Angeles County on the citizens of Orange County. The Board of Supervisors came under fire for having appointed someone who does not represent the concerns of the citizens.
Sheriff Hutchens stood her ground refuting the interpretation of her new policy saying “I do not see this as a Second Amendment Issue. The policy does not impact the right to have a gun at home or in a place of business.”
Bill Hunt, who is expected to challenge Sheriff Hutchens in the 2010 election was critical of Sheriff and other Police Chief’s who do not share the fundamental beliefs in values held in the communities which they serve.
The following points were made during the citizen testimony:
- Why should permits be given only to those who transport large sums of money?
- Personal protection and family protection should be considered as primary issue
- Restricting use of Concealed Carry Weapon permits does not make the county safer.
Viewers are asked to participate in an opinion survey at the end of the video and to leave comments on the video blog for discussion.

answer to Lloyd, NONE!! , they think code is law, The people can hold an election for Sheriff , and the grand jury can investigate ALL criminal activity, or failure to do ones DUTY ( such as the Sheriff not enforcing 2nd amendment in our favor) and indict! WE tell Government what they can or cannot do! We THE PEOPLE are ABOVE GOVERNMENT

As a single woman living alone, often traveling alone and in areas with high crime, I should have the right to be able to defend myself against those who are armed and acting with ill intent toward vulnerable citizens like me.

Bill Hunt should continue to try to unseat Sandra Hutchens during the next election since he didn't win this time. We need more people like him in both Orange and Riverside counties

I don't think you should need a test or a fee to exercise your rights.

In my opinion every American that has not been convicted of a felony should be able to own, carry and conceal any sort of firearm and NOT have to register it. Guns are not just to protect ourselves from our neighbors, they are to protect ourselves against our own government which is quickly growing out of control.

i feel that you have a right to bear arms that means you can carry a hand gun in view or under your coat without ANY permit permit may be taken away at anytime
