But even though he was able to handle the latest situation himself, he\u2019s not in favor of defunding the police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Not to defund the police. But to reform the police. Recognize them. Don&#8217;t take away resources. Our community needs resources,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chan is fortunate to have secured a license to carry a concealed firearm. California state law allows local law enforcement officials to grant or deny permit applications on a \u201cmay issue\u201d basis. Applicants must demonstrate a need to carry a firearm that satisfies that official\u2019s definition of \u201cneed.\u201d Some jurisdictions issue many permits while others issue virtually none.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/biden-police-should-shoot-knife-wielding-attackers-in-the-leg-not-the-heart\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"san-francisco-shop-owner-flashes-concealed-firearm-to-diffuse-attack-in-broad-daylight\" title=\"San Francisco Shop Owner Flashes Concealed Firearm to Diffuse Attack in Broad Daylight\">Biden: Police Should \u2018Shoot\u2019 Knife-Wielding Attackers \u2018In the Leg,\u2019 Not the \u2018Heart\u2019<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In San Francisco, applicants <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sanfranciscopolice.org\/sites\/default\/files\/2018-11\/25869-CCWLicensingPolicy%5B1%5D.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"san-francisco-shop-owner-flashes-concealed-firearm-to-diffuse-attack-in-broad-daylight\" title=\"San Francisco Shop Owner Flashes Concealed Firearm to Diffuse Attack in Broad Daylight\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">must supply convincing evidence of the following five-point list<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li>There is a reported, documented, presently existing, and significant risk of danger to life or of great bodily injury to the applicant and\/or his or her spouse, domestic partner or dependents;<\/li><li>The danger of harm is specific to the applicant or his or her immediate family and is not generally shared by other similarly situated members of the public;<\/li><li>Existing law enforcement resources cannot adequately address the danger of harm;<\/li><li>The danger of harm cannot reasonably be avoided by alternative measures; and<\/li><li>Licensing the applicant to carry a concealed weapon is significantly likely to reduce the danger of harm.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately for Chan, he was somehow able to satisfy San Francisco PD\u2019s draconian requirements and protect his business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m just doing my job to protect my family.
