Black people were getting murdered by corrupt San Francisco cops. I can see why anyone's panties would get in a wad.It's more of a recent phenomenon... a novelty as it were, in CA. Prior to '68 it wasn't a big deal. The Black Panthersgot some white bread panties inna wad 'n this is the result. In AZ... it's a cultural norm. In CA... it's an 'event'.
California has a lot more going for it than Florida. Even with a CCW, we can't even PRINT here, it's a Felony. And forget UOC, you'll be killed on sight.Firepower wrote:It ain't over 'til it is over. Don't disparage the work of those on the front lines.California is a lost cause. I'm glad to hear that some are trying to hold on to what little of their 2A they have left. Sadly, I see Arizona heading in the same direction ultimitely. Too many East Coast & West Coast folks with their love of Big Government moving there. I hope time proves me wrong as AZ is my home state. All the left wing trash moving to AZ is what made me decide to move to Northern Colorado. Except for Denver, this is a very Conservative State with low taxes. I can even take my loaded 9mm into Applebees while having a Beer and a Steak!
BTW, the event that Saldana referenced was an event that I helped organize and throw. It was a pretty damn good event too.

+1Sad to see that AZ's OC culture is being somewhat maligned on here. Isn't the goal of OC to make it so commonplace that no one bats an eye? That's what we have in AZ, not because we're complacent, but because we have fought hard to take back our rights! As some have mentioned, all one has to do is check out AZCDL and you'll see just how non-complacent we are here.
I was never aware of any bad blood. I have only been to Kalifornia a few times, to see some friends, and I never actually saw any UOCers, but more power to the ones that choose to do it. Personally, while California is beautiful and has many natural treasures, I simply won't live there due to the insane cost of living and progressive social "norms." I'll live in Arizona, a free citizen, and enjoy my freedoms, and spend my money here.
Carry on!
Dude what are you talking about?!!?!
I get a kick out of how people seem to equate political affiliation with a stance on every issue imaginable. Whatever...
The likelyhood of AZ ever going anti-gun is very slim even with the continued influx of folks from outside. The thing to keep in mind is (a) those folk left somewhere else and (b) they can actually see that firearms are not automagically evil. They see new friends and new neighbors carrying guns. They get invited to go shootin either out in the wilds or in a range. And they don't see arguments and disagreements between citizens turning into the fear mongered "shoot out at OK Corral" scenario.
OTOH if those here put a chip on their shoulder against those from elsewhere then guess who started the "us and them" and guess who will outnumber the natives at the polls. Fortunately that hasn't been my experience here since the first time I tried settin roots in AZ about 20 years ago.

This is the reason I left Illinois. To just about anyone there, guns are evil. When I got to AZ, the first week I seen someone OC'ing and ran home to get my holster and my SIG. It's been with me ever since.
Blah..blah.. blah.. blah, far leftwing..blah..blah..blah.
The same old BS that gun rights has anything to do with liberal vs. conservative issues. Every President and Government since the turn of the century has made bigger government. Reagan spent billions on the Drug War, Clinton spent billions on interns, Bush grew the ATF, I have no idea what Obama is doing...
They all (except Obama so far, strangely enough) have passed laws restricting guns. All of them.
Blah..blah..blah...
Sheeple.
