Unfortunately, we are living in the Dystopian future in this state and we are a sign of what is to come in your states. While our leaders and politicians here are evil controlling overlords, I blame what has happened here on the zombies and sheeple that are the electorate. Ultra leftist anti-gunners are going to do what they are going to do, but they can only accomplish their nefarious goals with the complicity of the populace and the majority of the populace here WANT the government to control them. Let's face it, a huge portion of the populace here come from other societies where the government controls every aspect of your life, concepts like freedom and being responsible for your own destiny are foreign concepts to them so they are creating a state where the government controls every aspect of their lives. Sheeple.
People in this state are statists, want the government to take care of them and all they really care about are their iPhones, XBoxes and big screen TVs. They don't care about freedom, responsibility and making your own path through life, that is why the Feinsteins, Boxers, and Pelosis have all came from this state.
I was born here and have lived here my entire life. California is the best state as far as the geography and lifestyle and one of the worst states as far as people. There are good, responsible, law abiding gun owners here, but we are so out voted by the electorate as to be insignificant. There was protest in Sacramento yesterday against the announced anti-gun bills and whopping 200 people showed up to protest. Wow, I bet that had a huge effect on what the evil anti-gun overlords are doing.
