You'll find the following useful intellectual ammunition,
should you choose to become personally activist on this issue.

An often-cited book:
Equal Protection (Exploring the Constitution)
"http://www.gunbookstore.com/titles/0897748557.htm"

California-specific, but dense with nationally applicable
arguments:
"http://www.ninehundred.com/~equalccw/"
This is also referenced from packing.org, my very
favorite concealed-carry resource:
"http://www.packing.org/news/2000/04/25/1304.shtml"

Ohio v. Freely, a densely-documented example case for
you lawyer types:
"http://www.chuckkleinauthor.com/Feely.html"

Once again, I would recommend checking out
"http://www.packing.org/".
