Vote with your feet and move just not to Texas . The future you are witnessing under Klintoon administration.

No, no and F no. Stay in your state and tell these shit heads to FOAD. Your state sucks because you have let these turds get away with this and leaving isn't going to accomplish shit. Whatever you do don't come to Texas. We are full.

 

Hello

 

"News Flash"!

Gov. Abbot declares that no new Texas residents will be registered unless they bring Assault-type weapons and adequate ammo for every family member, drive a pickup or SUV, (Prius not allowed) and have a "Hillary for Prison" sticker pre-mounted on their bumper.

Those not meeting the above requirements will be sold to a Cartel south of the border.

 

-Guido in TX

 

Hmmm... I'm not really fond of bumper stickers, but I think I could make an exception.

[XD45 7,124]

My last days will be lived in east Texas. I'd be there already but just can't walk out on the salary and benefits currently enjoyed.

 

In a couple of years I should have all pieces in place.

[yakdung 2,926]

The future is before us. Can't sit this election out it will be too costly.

The following companies need to move and make it VERY public exactly WHY they are moving.

No shit....stay where you are and fight for your rights. 

 

Move out of state, and the fucking Libtards will just follow.

 

 

 

Nail on the head.

 

See, it's all fun and games to encourage people from the coasts to move inland. They THINK that they will fit in, down in Texas or Georgia or wherever. 

 

However, once they move in, and they can't get a good bagel or a real slice of pizza, that they like guns but maybe not the idea of their neighbor shooting them a few hundred yards from their house, they don't like everything being closed on a Sunday or having random people say hello to you, or their street not having Belgian Block curbs, having to maintain a septic tank, only getting garbage pickup once a week, so on and so forth....

 

Well, next thing you know, ya'll can say bye to your $900/year property taxes. 

 

And I say this as someone who has never lived more than ten miles from the Atlantic Ocean in my life. I love the south, love the heartland, and visit when I can. But home is home, however many faults it may have, and I know where I belong.

I have never lived more than 3 miles from the coast and can say I understand all of those things except everyone in MA is an asshole and if you say hi to them makes a face as if you were a child rapist. Oh and we have pretty good bagels and pizza around here too

[Sim_Player 1,939]

Stay and fight. One way or the other it's a choice.

 

I hate the idea of living Washington State.

 

With Seattle, Tacoma, and Portland gone, Washington and Oregon would be Red States, again.

 

I suggest abortion laws, legalized drugs, no police, universal bathrooms, as a start (only in those cities.)

 

Borders fenced and watched by armed guards and drones, of course, for just a few years.

 

If I were King for a day...

I moved to Texas!

To stay in Maryland and fight was NO ANSWER! In less than 10 years, Maryland would have had ALL my savings, and the lion's share

of my pension. The BEST contribution I could have made to defeating liberalism in Maryland was to CUT THEM OFF FROM MY MONEY!

In Texas I can live well for the rest of my time. In Maryland I would be destitute in just a few years.

NATICK — Massachusetts gun dealers sold more than 2,000 military-style rifles Wednesday — nearly one-quarter of the total sold last year — after Attorney General Maura Healey moved to bar semiautomatic rifles that have been altered slightly to evade the state’s assault weapons ban.
 
The 2,251 assault rifles snapped up in a gun-buying frenzy represented a remarkable uptick from the 132 sold Tuesday and the 51 sold Monday, before Healey announced her ban. The numbers were first reported by Commonwealth Magazine.

That's right Jag, stand your ground.

 

A side note as far as the companies leaving MA: that's part of the reason I'm a Magpul fanboy. They said FU to Colorado's bullshit and left.

The Mass AG announced that effective immediately all "assault weapon" sales are a no go. All Guns are being pulled from the shelves and she is dead serious.

Wow!

Some Reps have already put forth laws to make all her actions related to guns null. Unfortunately they only have 5 days to complete anything before formal sessions end for the summer. There is another planned rally for this Saturday so maybe it will impact the speed at which things are done but if it doesn't this will all end up stuck in the books 

 

Also want to edit to add that you have to remember that the Dems hold a super majority here. If something is to happen they are basically stabbing their parties agenda in the back. It takes a lot to push a group of people against there own like that and this is one time it is seemingly occurring. I'll take 58/160 people signing a letter saying "WTF" any day given those odds. It may seem over here but there is a lot going on and those of us pushing back are actually accomplishing something

And everybody knows the democraps would never allow a majority to impose it's will on a minority.  Unless the democraps are the majority.

[Ronin38 2,117]

I thought that letter was far too nice. They should come out and tell her to FOAD.

 

Maybe throw their shoes at her like some other countries senators do. I don't like most of those countries, but I think we're about due for some truly exciting politics around here!

When put like that it makes sense. Being from conservative areas I didn't think about how they have it up there. Seems having any liberal support in that state is a sign that she screwed up.

 

I am curious. With protests being held on Saturday is there anyone at the Capitol to hear them?

Yeah they are in full session for the weekend last day to get bills passed is the 31st so they are there. Planned to have several thousand there again in the state house to address each rep individually to do something. Hopefully it is good and works in our favor

And yet the updated exemption list states that the “Ruger Mini 14 or substantially-similar model weapon” are NOT "assault weapons".
