City versus state...brother versus brother...son versus father....man, we’re back to 1850 all over again. It’s amazing to watch it unfold. Everyone sat there and kept asking how a southerner with no interest in slavery and just a plain backwoods farmer could ever care about the outcome of events in the south...and we are seeing the progress day by day.

*****************

Well this is no surprise; monkey see, monkey do — the usual suspects (cities) lining up against AZ. Idiots.

I’ve long viewed Seattle as a far leftist city — and have no plans to visit. Thinking about a cruise to Alaska this summer and will cross those coming and going from Seattle OFF the list. Can all those overpriced coffee stores tolerate MORE losses in revenue? Here in L.A. they are certainly hurting for business. Serves them right!
