Good for him now his kids have a chance to grow up normal and not be taxed to death.
I was born and raised in this state.
I will stay and fight.
And if you could see what it’s done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me through.
Between the silence of the mountains
And the crashing of the sea
There lies a land I once lived in
And she’s waiting there for me.
But in the grey of the morning
My mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping
And the road that I must choose.

They used to say that everyone should live in California for five years. I lasted ten before leaving at the end of 2015. I should have stuck to the five year plan.
Wait a second are they shutting the power on and off in San Francisco because I think it’s going to help stop wildfires?
He is very VERY credible.
There are more than 30 million illegal aliens in the US and they are on welfare.
He quotes accurately that California has a third of all welfare recipients.
It’s safe to say there are more than 10 million illegals in California.
It is going to take an army to move them out.
We need to start thinking like the Eisenhower America. It’s not a game anymore.
If you figure out where you want to go, I’d be interested. Frankly my wife and I have thought about leaving the country. Best countries are S. Korea, Taiwan or Japan, but obviously they all have their own issues, fear of China/N.Korea etc. But all of them are much more sane than America is now. But you would have to make a huge cultural shift. Both my wife and I understand some Japanese and Korean (she basically though is fluent in Japanese and way ahead of me in Korean). If Hillary had become president, we would seriously have considered going to S.Korea and had that as a contingency plan.

There is Evil everywhere in this nation, and it is getting worse by the day.
Everything RATs touch turns to Schiff.
Fun fact: half of America’s ‘homeless’ reside in California.
I’m wondering what took him so long. I left October 24, 1973. OK, so he wasn’t even born until 1985. Excuses, excuses!
I lived in California for a few years in the early 1980s while serving in the Marine Corps. Upon my discharge, I considered living there. I especially liked the Oceanside area (just north of San Diego). I guess I made the right decision but I should talk, I'm in NYC area now.
One of these days I'm going to retire and I'm taking all my money to a solid red state.
A big part of the problem the way I see it is that
those who are responsible for informing the public
are so left wing that they are willing to see this
state sink rather than calling out the liberal
politicians who pass laws which harm the state. And,
that is a microcosm of what is going on in the nation
as a whole.
Heaven forbid a few Republicans get
elected to top state offices to bring needed changes
to things like education, for example. We are left
to wonder about the corruption that occurs because
so-called “investigative reporters” are great at
going after conservatives like Devin Nunes but are
strangely incurious when it comes to investigating
the party in power in this one party state.
To those of you who suggest that I move away,
forget it. You can choose to ignore me or choose
to ponder the alternative info that people like
me provide from time to time.
Signalman, I have a few suggestions for you as a
fift generation Californian. First, you are preaching
to the choir here at FR. I suggest that you prepare
an op ed to send to the major papers of California and
see if some of them have any inclination to publish
the ramblings of a person who has come to the end of
the rope.
Oregon and Washington have been gradually tilting
left so don’t bother moving there unless
you understand that the more rural you go, the
better. In fact you might find some attractive
prospects for a new life that have online local
newspapers. I suggest that you write letters to
those papers seeking feedback from the locals.
Explain that you are a Cali conservative who is
seeking a change for your family rather than to
try to change their community. See if you get
positive feedback or mostly pushback. Remember that
adding to the population of anywhere you go is
going to change things for you and them, especially
if others move there too. And, if there is a college
or university close to where you may relocate the
dynamics will be different and not for the better,
usually. The small NorCal community where I reside
politically changed for the worse when a junior
college 40 miles away placed a branch campus in
my home town.
For a long time I thought those I knew who were
moving away from my rural home area to places
like Sand Point, Idaho were taking their conservative
attitudes w/them and that would not hinder Idaho if
they continued to live their quiet, conservative
lives. They had moved to Idaho because they were
pushed out by liberals with money who changed this
rural area in a bad way. I got all that. The truth
is regardless if the migration is liberal or
conservative property values will change if there is
enough movement. You can view that in different ways.
Now, I can see that there are liberals from California
who move to get away from the liberal laws and
politicians they voted for that ruined this state
and these damned and dumb liberals are willing to
take their act elsewhere to rinse and repeat.
Remember how California got to where we are. We
were a happy go lucky people who were strong on
libertarian “live and let live”. Too many of
those who took advantage of that attitude follow
the creed of my tagline.....,
Great post. Thanks, Joseph Vice. Sad. Take care of that family.
It came on my youtube feed yesterday. I was very sympathetic towards him. He is pro 2A, Christianity, pro life and has a young family. He is better off somewhere else where he can be himself and get the freedom he seeks.
