Most gunowners here are looking for ways to do exactly that. Of course that plays right into the hands of the tyrants—they would like nothing more than for all of us to leave.
You know what though, this is not a disease only affecting places like CA or NY. This is going to affect everyone in the US. If you think you are safe in GA, consider what the demographics will be like in another 10-20 years. This disease is spreading and I fear it will take a lot of blood to eradicate it. We just happen to be on the frontlines right now. Your time will come.
Gaffer - sadly, I do believe you’re right. The disease is spreading throughout the country, but I figure I’ll get some good years down here before it overcomes Georgia. I spent years fighting the politics in NY, well before the unSAFE Act was a gleam in little Andy Cuomo’s eye. I still stay plugged into the fight up there, but I’m done slamming my head into that particular brick wall. I did feel a small bit guilty for abandoning the front line up there, but I got over it as soon as I had my first whiff of freedom down here. As far as I’m concerned, NY can go the way of Detroit. They want it, they can have it. And I hope they choke on it.
My county, 96% white, 1% black, 2-3% other (Hispanics mostly). Hell, I can drive some of the backroads here and still see Rebel Flags and outposts with signs that have all kinds of retro things on them. Not hardly.
There are perhaps 6 or 8 metro counties where Yankees now live. Metro Atlanta. There are over 150 other Georgia Counties, most of whose residents would likely frown or spit when you say “Atlanta.”
