I’ve been watching old episodes of Adam-12, and it’s maddening to see how far the state has fallen. There was a scene where a neighbor called the police because a man was shooting his gun.
Malloy was explaining to him in a calm, rational voice that there was nothing wrong with having a gun or even displaying it on his own property - he just couldn’t be a nuisance by firing it so closely to other properties.
The gun, by the way, was just sitting on the outdoor table during the exchange.

I actually remember that episode. And when I was growing up that is just how it was. Cops stopped us many times walking down main street with loaded rifles to go out plinking and just say “You boys be careful Ok?”. Used to take them to school to go hunting or plinking after school. No problem, no big deal.
We live in Az and recently I was standing behind a lady checking out of Walmart. she mentioned that she had recently moved there from Ca. The clerk and her were talking and firearms came up. The clerk told her that the store allowed folks to come in carrying firearms. She said “You are kidding me? Guns in the store???”.
So I interjected and said hard to tell because it is legal to carry concealed, but right now half the people in this store are carrying firearms. She turned white and I thought she was going to pass out. She could not scramble out of there fast enough. This is the level of fear mongering and brainwashing we are dealing with...
