what's your relationship with guns, CA? genuinely curious.
The flag with the Confederate symbol and Virginia state seal is a nice touch. But no white supremacists in sight, according to Angus.

Well, also that the FBI has spent a week frantically arresting tons of crazies that were *planning* violence at the rally.

That’s a bastardization if the old Georgia state flag.

You have to understand that most of CA is rural. The distance from the CA/OR border to the Mexican border is just a little bit shorter than the distance from Boston to Jacksonville.
You also have to understand that there are conservative urban and suburban areas like around San Diego and the Central Valley going towards Silicon Valley. Orange County used to be one of the most conservative areas in the country. It's now moving towards purple.
I think there would be the votes to make universal background checks for all transfer of ownership of guns and rifles. I think you could get a vote to ban large capacity devices. I think banning assault weapons would pass but be very close. If gun shows weren't such huge business here, I'd love to see them banned as well.
I went to a bar yesterday in Northern California to watch the 49ers game. I was chatting with the guy next to me and I told him that I was from South Carolina and former law enforcement. He looked me square in the eye and asked if I was pro gun and if I was carrying at the moment. I found it interesting that he asked bc of being affiliated with law enforcement and not being from SC. It honestly could have gone both ways and neither would justify me having a gun in a crowded bar while drinking.
