Naw, Florida cops have become the biggest pricks on the planet. I am originally from Jax, and when we go back to visit my mom I always hate driving as they will pull you over for being 5 over the speed limit. Not here in Texas, usually ten over is cool, sometimes up to 15 or more on the interstates if you're lucky...

It because there are more narcissistic people in Kommiefornia than any other state in the Union. I once heard it was the only place where it was legal to have mirrored tint on the inside of your car!

Personally, I don't care what laws they pass out there on the Leftist Coast, I wouldn't step foot in that state if you paid me. The anti-gun stance they have is ridiculous, I just saw a news piece where a guy driving a WWII-vintage military Jeep that had a fake machine gun mounted on it caused several people to call 911 and they detained the owner. For God's sake, you would have to be a complete idiot not to realize this is a historic vehicle! But the next segment showed a Colonial re-enactor at the Reagan Museum and I didn't see anyone freaking out about his musket.

I've been to California before and it's a beautiful state, but the fruit and nuts have ruined it...

Cheers! M2

Then, you'd be missing out! But don't worry, we won't invite you if you come with the attitude!

Plus, you got totally wrong information. If you think everybody here is a leftist, then you are clearly misinformed, believe me. 1/2 of the people I know around here are registered republicans.

You seem to like guns. Go to the annual gun show at the Cow Palace, or even to a rodeo

http://www.cowpalace.com/

or to the many other similar activities around the state all year long and go call these people commies to their face if you dare ...

Yeah, that too is California.

So chill out a bit and don't put everybody in the same basket.

BTW I thought this was a friendly forum where people exchanged information about cars, jokes and stuff, what's with the hate anyway?!!!

good - because I would shoot you myself for saying "they" and including "me".
I think we ought to drop a nuke on Texas and make a nice lake out of it.
The country would be better off.

So there. Cheers, indeed.

California's more likely to crack off and slide into the ocean during an earthquake than Texas becoming a lake! Any rain we get here runs into the Gulf of Mexico within an hour of it hitting the ground...

And what are you going to shoot me with, anyway? California law doesn't allow anything more lethal than a rubber-band gun! Plus I thought all Californians were anti-nuke, are you gonna get trouble for even mentioning that word?

And "Cheers" right back at ya!

That is so true! Sorry if I offended anyone. I have a cousin in Houston.

And... we would lose NST.

Isn't it a great demonstration though, of what would happen if everyone were equally poisonous, ignorant and vitriolic?

well, since we're at it, here's the CA law in brief. I think your sarcastic comment about owning nothing more than a rubber-band gun is incorrect:

Quote:
Permit to purchase rifles and shotguns? No
Registration of rifles and shotguns? No
Licensing of owners of rifles and shotguns? No
Permit to carry rifles and shotguns? No

Handguns

Permit to purchase handgun? No
Registration of handguns? Yes
Licensing of owners of handguns? No
Permit to carry handguns? Yes (If concealed)

I've never been there. One thing I would really like to do some day is a cross-country drive. Think our Yaris is up to the task?

Toyota should sponsor it, and I should organize it.

Being a super narcissist from california, I say we just drive PCH, and turn around at oregon. Why would we ever need to leave cali?

(really though, I'd rather drive PCH than out to texas :P)
