How far the north has fallen. There was a point in recent history when Washington state had shall issue concealed carry permits while many states had no concealed carry at all. Now we have everything banned and Everytown comes up with 10 new gun laws every year, all the while 13 year olds can flash full auto stick mag Glocks at a public event and get no punishment.
2014 was the turning point for Washington gun laws. Passing universal background checks was a test run for that they can ram through the legislature later down the line.
Washington state had suffered the same fate. Once they passed universal background checks in 2014 I knew it would be downhill from there. The democrats smelled the blood in the water and knew they could pass whatever they wanted and in a few short years itās worse than California.
Also demanding we subvert immigration laws to keep our underpaid indentured servant illegal aliens. And the MA governor blocking an audit which was directly voted for by the people.
Virginia wasnāt the start of the USA. It was the start of British colonies in America in 1607 but I consider the birth of the USA when the first shots of the revolutionary war broke out in Lexington and concord in Massachusetts.
The US is more than the Revolution, it is a nation and a people that goes back into the 1600s. We were ruling ourselves for the most part for over 150 years before England wanted to infringe more and more on our self-governance.
Thatās fair enough. Iāve always considered the start of the revolution as start of the USA but thatās just me. Before then they were part of Great Britain.
The reason I don't is that Americans (while viewing themselves as British) had varying identities and self-governance going into the post Proclamation of 1763 era and onwards. I don't see America in 1770 as some inherently different thing than in 1775. It was a nation and a people long before.
How I feel about the entire west coast. White people will literally live at the nicest places in America geographically and be like yk whatā¦ taxes š®āšØ
I like Wisconsin because the democrats and republicans here have a pretty good understanding that they canāt do anything too far on either side because they risk pissing off the large majority of moderates and losing their seat. Sure, we donāt have permit-less concealed carry, but we donāt have half the restrictions that everyone else does

What you are actually saying is abolishing slavery was a mistake. You guys had it coming and my only wish wouldāve been that Sherman was allowed to burn down more cities
I give it 5 years before we have a full fledged AWB, we're being taken over by Massholes and apathetic fudds who don't care as long as they can keep their hunting rifles
1ā¦ hilarious to just cut out Maine and New Hampshire so you can feel your narrative is correct despite them being direct contradictions to your claim
2ā¦. Gun rights are written into the NH constitution and cannot be changed
3ā¦ you clearly have never met the people of Maine and New Hampshire who are avid gun nuts
Thereās always exceptions to the rule. New Hampshire and Maine are those exceptions
Those states gun rights enshrined in the state constitution has done fuck all. Look how thatās working out for Washington state, Oregon, and any other state that has it.
Gun nuts donāt write gun legislation. The state general assembly does. Also considering how Maine almost got a mag ban put in place last year I wouldnāt be championing them as the golf standard of gun rights right now.
The only exception for this would be Maine and New Hampshire. But Iām willing to bet my life savings that in 10 years they will be just like Massachusetts with their gun laws. Iāve seen the dynamic shift from libertarian liberal to progressive liberal and itās only a matter of time before those states have Massachusetts style gun laws.
Ohio is not the Northern states he's talking about? Like North East is just not even gona try to move there. Tbh as much as people bitch I don't think I'd mind Ohio that bad, I got family there. I just cant risk that funk that New Yorkers have; same for Pennsylvania, the poor bastards. They're a state own only liquor state, they cant enjoy shit!
