Where is your house in Arizona?
5 miles from the Needles bridge
Where? Fort Mohave? MOHAVE Valley? Golden Shores?
This idea has been floated in other respects.
Libs may learn that cities supporting school prayer or are anti-abortion could also become ‘sanctuaries’

Fake News. Never happened. But carry on in you joy.
I was there. What are you talking about?
I guess this decision is going to Needle the California Marxists to the point that they start jumping out of windows (my 4th of July wish).
I think the children of Needles, Cal. are a lot safer today than they were yesterday and their parents are glad of that.
Wow. I dont Have to do that, I was there. Do not know what problem you have with me but I suggest you watch your mouth.
Needles - -
There is Baker, as an alternative.
Interesting. I know some of the laws have been changed in the state but the Sheriff and police chief have broad discretion in issuing CCW permits. There was a time when a citizen could “ccw shop” and receive a permit from any jurisdiction that would issue one. People in Los Angeles would get one out of Culver City. But I think now the law requires some sort of nexus to the issuing authority - either a resident in the county/city, or spends a lot of time there for business/work.
But I do know that a CCW permit issued in Needles (just like any CCW permit issued anywhere) is good anywhere in the state of California. If they don’t already, they should charter their own police department and start issuing permits.
Cloward-Piven 'em to death. Every time the liberals come up with some crack-brained law, declare the city to be a sanctuary from it. Make 'em sick of ever thinking up that whole business.
The problem is that Arizona and Nevada are literally right next door. They don’t honor CCW’s from other States.
Hopefully our side is smart enough to fully grasp it - and maybe the DUmmies on the other side will miss the import and not march and riot against the Constitution...

Hildy - see my documentation in my response to the troll who has somehow survived here since 2012.
Yeah, well I LOVE that someone is using their own tactics back against them.
Man, that's got to irritate the left.
