    The staying where he needs to be comment was pretty funny! lol

    Coming from an ex-Commucalifornian, I find this quite funny. I likely have more firearms and ammo then you do,
    and I dont obey CA gun laws either. Pretty easy to joke about a state YOU fled from, isn't it, TS?

    Just for the record CA isn't a true Red State, its purple. Most of the northern state is as RED as hell, which is why we wish to leave Socal and form the state of Jefferson. We have NO voice in Sacramento, which is run by democrats from the coastal areas and from the democrats in Socal.

    I feel like my comments may have been taken too personally. Maybe? Dunno. I know people choose to ignore the law. I shot a lot of IDPA, USPSA, and multigun stuff when I was there and scores of folks didn't even bother with the bullet buttons. And those that did ran some type of bypass such as the magnetic bullet button tool or they screwed the "install tool" far enough on to bypass the bullet button then removed it for the trip home.

    Lots of 30 round magazines as well even MAGPULs and the like.

    Yeap, and those 30 round magazines WONT be turned in by 95% of the gunners here in CA. I used to use the
    magnetic bullet button too, but have now put the standard mag release back into my guns. I am not at all alone in this at all. Lots of us have pistols with more then 10 round magazines as well. **** Sacramento!

    Brown crossed the line with the latest round of gun control laws, so there is no reason to obey the old ones now, which were never constitutional to begin with.

    You Texans want to believe that all Californians are a bunch of pussies, well that's just fine....right up until the shit hits the fan. We are living behind the enemy lines....and we are still kicking ass and taking names.

    Try not to take it too personally. A lot of the animosity Texans have towards cuckafornia has to do with what the infiltraitors have done to our state (and others).

    We've also seen quite a few who move, join the forum, say how much they love freedom, then turn in to "butters" when topics like constitutional carry or UBCs come up. Or still very liberal on certain socioeconomic issues.


    Personally, I have a lot of respect for gun owners who stay in shitty states and continue to fight back after shitty laws are passed. But if the history is taken in to account it's understandable why many here are happy to throw the whole state out in to the ocean.

    California's coastal area is spectacularly beautiful. I spent time Monterrey at Ft.Ord, doing basic and AIT. The weather too is spectacular on the coast and inland for a bit.

    But the natural beauty of a place is destroyed and made meaningless if one is living in what for all practical purposes is a totalitarian state.

    marxism/socialism appeals to the state power holder's there who wish to shove it down the throat of all.

    This is when you work on heading out to a free state. Sure you have to (maybe) sell your house, find a new job in advance of leaving if possible, or wing it. I know it's not an easy thing to do, but if you care for freedom, get the hell out of California.

    P.S. If you're a 'no working - worthless bum' this is a great place for you. The welfare benefits are spectacular, because those sold on marxism/socialism appreciate your special snowflakeness..and will gladly dig money out of the hard working and give it to you.

    You DO understand that millions of Californians are Red, not Blue, I hope. We want what you have, thus the push to split CA into a new state that will be called Jefferson.

    If you have never been to the northern counties of California, or the mountain and foothill portions, you'd find LOTS of gun-owners who have NO representation is Sacramento at all. Thus the push for the state of Jefferson.

    I have traveled through the entire state Of Kommiefornika and I do feel for those that are considered our brothers and sisters in arms. BUT, like me, they should pack up escape before they are dragged down into the depths of hell with these Libtards because they too will have to PAY for their mistakes. I say sell everything and MOVE to a free state. Although Kommiefornika is a beautiful state it is run by radical Libtards intent on destroying its inhabitants.

    Million Dollar Listings is a reality tv show about 3 different guys selling homes in California.

    The cost of what the very wealthy buy in the way of homes has me flummoxed. They'll spend millions and millions with huge yards and shrubbery.

    You know these home owners don't mow their own grass, fix their own plumbing, repair anything requiring carpentry skills, and so on.

    While the blue collar continue to emigrate to free states, ultimately what then for these rich snowflakes?

    Where will they find the tradesmen/skilled labor to perform these tasks?

    Or, are we going to find these turds migrating where they can have this type work done for them?

    To me it's a shame what the Cali politicians are doing to that state. Although I would never move there, I do enjoy riding the coast. I have been to both coasts and the west coast is the best IMO.

    For the record: I never had a problem pumping gas in my bike in both California or Oregon, where yes, they turn on the pump, but I put the nozzle in the tank and then handed it back when I was done.

    What someone needs to do is take out that piece of shit Jerry Brown end of problem. He was a piece of shit in the 1980 when they made him Governor the first time. And as most people know shit is not like fine wine it does not get better with age. San Diego is my place of birth but I have lived in AZ for years gun collecter and staunch Republican Vet and LEO

    Somewhere here nor there....

    First off what Flash wrote was funny! Lol Secondly I never bashed you for being there nor did I ever state there are no Red Conservatives there. Lastly yes I did leave that stupid state as I was smart enough to realize that state will Never be red again with conservative politicians running the place. It will Never reverse its anti gun laws and the Libtards are outgrowing the Conservatives every year.

    I wish you the best in your fight there as I spent 20 yrs of my adult life fighting the tards there and made a wise decision for my freedoms and packed up the family and left. Best move I've ever made as I've been able to enjoy every weapon avail to include suppressors here in Texas. I'll just bet you you'll move eventually as well....


    Add- one day you'll wake up realizing you are paying more than 50% of your income in taxes, every gun you own is now illegal there and wonder why didn't I move years ago. I've made more $ and paid less taxes here in Texas over the last 9 yrs here....

    TS: you are correct. I will be moving in a couple of years when I retire. I was born and raised here in a small town north of Sacramento. I dont disagree with you about California getting worse, and I am afraid that too many Californians DO bring their liberal notions when they leave this state when they are blue demorats.

    Rest assured that I am not one of them. If I move to Texas you will not see me bringing any of the libtards ways with me. I am very conservative and usually vote Republican, not democrap. I wont need to buy any ammo license here because I have lots of ammo ready to go in case the stuff hits the fan, before then.

    I dont need a sound suppressor, but if you do that's OK with me. I just want semi-auto weapons that dont need a bullet button and thirty plus round magazines again, and NO registration and I'll be good to go.

    In the meantime I will not be obeying any of these unconstitutional laws. 90 percent of CT gun-owners didn't register their so-called assault weapons after Sandy Hook and it will be just the same, here in California.

    California has three laws that I am surprised that they allow in this socialist state:

    1. If traffic is slow, you can cut through on a motorcycle, legally, even on the shoulder.

    2. That old Harley-Davidson's M/C's are still allowed to run with open pipes.

    3. That we are allowed to pump our own fuel at the gas stations, but not in Oregon?

    You'd think in a nanny state like this that we'd be to stupid to pump our own fuel!

    If I'm not mistaken that Oregon law about not pumping your own gas was a "jobs bill". With the spread of self service gas stations a lot of pump jockeys were losing their jobs.

    Yeap. Everywhere you go there are Mexicans in our government. I had to quit the credit union I was with after I pointed out
    to them that there were no people working there but people of Mexican decent. They dont call this Norte' Mexico for nothing.

    Not one Black, White or Asian at all in that credit union and Asians make up a good portion of this state, unfortunately most are liberal demorat gun-grabbers, like CA Senator Leland Yee who was caught trafficking in full-auto AK-47's, while passing gun-control bills down our throats in down in Sacramento. Now he is doing time for five years in prison for racketeering!

    Thanks, Younggun. We are doing our best with the shitty hand we were dealt. I thought Brown, being an old time democrat would veto most of these new gun laws, but since he will be gone in 2018 I guess he just doesn't care. Once Lt. Gov Newsom becomes governor the stuff is really going to hit the fan here in the Golden State when it comes to gun control laws.

    Actually Brown was attorney general from 1970-1974. He became Governor in 1975 until 1983. He and that Cal-Trans bitch, Adriana Gianturco, shut down all kinds of highway projects during Brown's term in office.

    This wasted tons of taxpayer money as well as wasting fuel and time for CA drivers and truck drivers who needed those new, much safer and more efficient highways, not the two lane death traps(lots of our old roads/highways were lined with Black Walnut trees. They dont move at all, even for a loaded semi-truck) that were all over California back in the 1970's.

    They dont call Jerry Brown, "Moonbeam" Brown, for nothing. Thankfully he will never be able to be the governor again, just like his dad was. Problem is that his successor will be even worse.

    You know orbitup, I wondered about that myself so I looked it up online. Here is what I found:

    In 1951, Oregon mandated that only attendants with the proper training would be allowed to put flammable liquids into cars. The state statute lists 17 reasons why you can’t pump yourself, including preventing spills, helping older drivers who might have difficulty and protecting small children left in cars.

    As someone who has delivered hundreds of thousands of gallons of gasoline and diesel fuel in my life, I dont understand this at all. I used to see people smoke cigarettes while pumping gasoline in the distant past, which while real stupid, its not as dangerous until the proper fuel to air ratio is correct, and even then usually requires a flame such as a lighter or a match.

    Even people who drive off with the nozzle in the tank are not much danger since the nozzle and/or hose is designed to break away, and also stops any fuel from being pumped at all.

    Back in 1951, the gasoline nozzles had no automatic shutoff's like they have had since the 1960's, so that's not a good reason anymore. Using a cellphone while pumping isn't a big deal since the vapor is captured via the nozzle's gasoline vapor recycling accordion vapor tube.

    What IS a big deal is an RV with a pilot light running. Never fill up near an RV that uses gasoline or propane. Trust me I know.! As for elderly people and/or those with disabilities, the station attendant MUST fill their cars if they ask them to, in California.

    I've lived in a state with the exact same problem. Most told me to stay and fight which was 25 years ago. I still revel in the fact that I left that shtthole for it to sink into its bankruptcy Libtard condition all the while I flourish in the great and insanely proud state of Texas. My family has begged me to come back to which I proudly refuse each and every time. It does pull at the heart strings BUT I can only think of how selfish they are to want me to be as miserable as they are just so that the distance to see each other is shorter. Screw that.

    Let it be Blue or purple or whatever the hell those tards want it to be.
