It is as if Larosiere played the spider and said to California AG Rob Bonta, &#8220;&#8221;Will you walk into my&nbsp;parlour?&#8221; Bonta, playing the fly, just did that. Larosiere, a well-known 2A attorney, will now be able to push the issue in court, will be able to use discovery against California, and will be able to gather a coalition of both First and Second Amendment advocates in support. Larosiere <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/matthew-larosiere-39025b126\/details\/experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has worked at one time or anther<\/a><\/strong> with the Cato institute and the Firearms Policy Coalition.
