Good for you, sir! You must have concluded that California didn't deserve you.

I would not argue (since I would lose) that parts of California are great, but overall, that state's tightening of the noose on its citizens' liberties is getting the response it deserves.

I did my best to beat back the rising tide of gun-owner harassment laws and taxes, but after five years, I got tired and decided to move to a state that recognized my right to self-defense and didn't confiscate 9.3% of my income.

As I've said in a published letter to the editor or two here in New Hampshire - "they could make us pay, but they couldn't make us stay."

Hmm, I just moved from California to Maryland. (Ten years ago I made the move in the opposite direction.)

Do you suppose I may have just jumped from the frying pan into the griddle? :)
