Lemon,
Changing demographics, we are a predominantly Latino State. California also has a huge immigrant population, both legal and illegal. Californias power centers are dominated by Liberals. San Francisco, and Los Angeles. LA and the County have about 1/3 of the States population. So in essence 2 counties dictate what the other 56 do. Another factor is that the State has lost many Republicans to other States, speeding our decline. The old free state argument.
Our economic base has also collapsed, Toyota is gone, Lockheed is gone, we have lost a lot of high paying jobs to export. The companies get tired of being ****** by the state and they leave. Lots of folks want free stuff, and the state is all to willing to provide. That why I have said, there are no free states left. This is the Super Bowl, ALL of us have our butts in the sling. People have laughed, mocked, insulted California residents for years, wont sell legal firearms to us because of the state laws. Those of us that have stayed and fought this crap, we live everyday what the rest of you are about to endure.
Decreasing freedoms year by year, standard magazines gone 2000, shrinking handgun availability due to so called safety roster, 2003. Sell more than 500 rounds a month, you need a vendor license 2016. It goes on and on. What has it done? NOTHING, crime is up because the morons in Sacramento have released tens of thousands criminals from prison. Domestic violence is a misdemeanor! Homeless are everywhere. So as you can see, the issue is very complex. A2
