The California Department of Justice says it wrongly made public the personal information of perhaps hundreds of thousands of gun owners in up to six state-operated databases.

The association said the "unconscionable" release included information on law enforcement officials including judges, as well as others who had sought permits "like rape and domestic violence victims."

In addition, the state’s Assault Weapon Registry, Handguns Certified for Sale, Dealer Record of Sale, Firearm Certificate Safety and Gun Violence Restraining Order dashboards were affected, the department said. Officials said were investigating the extent to which personal information was exposed in those databases.

Bonta’s office could not immediately say how many individuals are in each database, whether the data was downloaded and how often, and when the public website would be restored. California officials issued about 40,000 conceal and carry permits last year, down from more than 100,000 during the peak year of 2016, according to information on the state Department of Justice’s website.

America The Worlds Most Dangerous Place to live

I hope California is sued into the ground

What the actual fuck?

Meanwhile the government keeps trying to make the case for taking them away from us… this doesn’t look like an accident at all. Victims of DV who have firearms for their protection had their personal info made public. HUGE safety breach.

This isn’t over yet. This was part of a plan, at some point we’ll know why they did this.

That’s Ok, I’m ready

It’s a war Wake up 🙏

Will anyone be held accountable? Not holding my breath!

Commiefornia...

It was done on purpose. If not, they should fire whoever did it and release the responsible party's personal info as well.

California didn’t think there were enough guns in the hands of criminals so they started an advertising campaign.

Good reason to never accept a national firearms registry.

Criminal negligence right? The kind of thing 'bonzo' seeks huge penalties for right?

Awesome will be cool mine was release so I can contact a lawyer. Lol

The timing seems awfully suspicious.

California was upset that they are going to have to permit more concealed carry permits, so they took it out on gun owners and released their information by 'accident'. Time for some major lawsuits

So what will they do about it?

Yeah that was an accident So much for background checks and registry. They want all that information but can't keep it protected. Much like school children the police let get shot and killed for over an hour Plus an LA Times 'journalist' has been trying to use FOIA requests to get the names of EVERY California gun owner released and published. Honestly I think Bonta is a douche and this happened on purpose. We are going to see more of this shit. We are going to see burglaries
