Cool indeed. Why do you figger NH and Washington would be the ones blowing off a little steam in this way???
Our conservatives are more frustrated because we are surrounded by flaming libs?
Washington is actually fairly conservative compared to our neighbor to the south.
Our concealed Carry permits require a basic background check.
Minimum ag. lot size is 5 acres, as opposed to Oregons 40/80/220.
All male citizens between the ages of 21 to 45 are members of the state militia acording to the constitution (How cool is that, even die hard liberals are unknowingly members of the Washington State Militia).
I can get an ag. building permit for $25, and statement of how it will be used. Because of the draconian farm size restrictions in Oregon, Building a barn in requires a lot of effort (Filling farm plans, etc.) including convincing a state bureau-crat that yes, this barn IS needed, and will be a barn, and you will not be living in it.
I know a couple in Oregon who make thier living from a berry farm of 35 acres, and can not build a house because the state believes they CANNOT make a living with that little land.
As for New Hampshire, they are about the cheapest state in existance, to the point of auctioning off thier road kill.
