AP Reports on Failed Ban on Open-Carry, Sounds Disappointed

Someone at the Associated Press was probably hoping to write a piece on how California lawmakers passed a bill that would have made it illegal to carry unloaded guns in public, but instead the news service had to report that the measure failed.

AP noted:

“The Senate narrowly approved the measure… but it failed in the Assembly.”

Additionally, AP noted that lawmakers did not act on a second bill that would have made it a law requiring all long guns, including rifles and shotguns to be registered. AP also stated, “the bill fell short during an initial vote Monday.”

Is this a case of sour grapes from the AP? If so, too bad.
