Believe it or not, about half the people on the forum literally hate California and want people here to die.
Yes, regardless of the fact that FR is actually in California. And it is so stunningly BEAUTIFUL here! ;o)
You’re correct......there are solid folks in California.....few. So it difficult to have much sympathy.
We live up here in the State of Jefferson....We were under mandatory evacuation twice. One fire was literallhy across the roads from us. Hillsides engulfed in a matter of minutes in a fire-nado that just devoured a Hilltop. Luckily for us it didn’t cross the hold line road and the winds were favorable, for us....not for hundreds of others that lost their homes.
We here in the Northstate do not disaparge those that lose their towns due to Tornados. Although, I must wonder why residential developments are not built underground with earthen berms and whatnot... We here in the Northstate do not disparage those states that have massive flooding or suffer from hurricanes or other natural disasters.
California has diverse biomes. It is not all desert, although there are parts that are. It is not all mountain, although there are parts that are. It is not all green, although there are parts that are. You get the idea. It politics have swung from left to right to center to marxist. Currently we are in the marxist swing. It can’t last forever. But there are many of us that can not afford to leave and go live at whatever glorious piece of paradise you live.
Sometimes if a person doesn’t have anything nice to say it might be a good idea to say nothing.
“Believe it or not, about half the people on the forum literally hate California and want people here to die.”
Gross hyperbole.
“About half”??? So you took a poll??
“Want people to die”?? Not believable that any great number think that way.
“Hate California”?
Not really. Hate what the Democrats have done, and are doing to it? Yes.
Full disclosure: I grew up there and still have relatives there, but even they know they are not enough reason for me to move back there.
What a hateful thing to say. I disagree. I have family all over California but I don’t wish death or distruction on anyone.
*I did.
I moved in 97-98...to N.E. Okla...
I still have friends and family there...that I care very much for.
I hated the politics..of Calif. I hated the smog. I hated the traffic...But never wished anyone to die......
And I'm quite sure they will get the help they need........
“Believe it or not, about half the people on the forum literally hate California and want people here to die.”
Aren’t you being extreme?
Saying no or limited federal tax dollars isn’t the same thing as everyone should die. It’s sad that even conservatives think of not getting tax dollars as equating to a death sentence.
It just means California should stand on its own 2 feet. Besides, it has billions and billions of dollars for all the illegals it harbors, it should take care of its own citizens as well.
I hate California politics and liberals there are damaging to my way of life, but, death? No. I can easily separate my ire over wrongheaded thinking from the seriousness of ending life. I also know that there are rightheaded thinkers in CA too. Some are related to me. Please stay safe and God be with all, including the first responders.
When I lived in CA I was surrounded by hateful, anti-American mouth breathers who wanted folks like me to step in front of a bus.
THOSE are the folks I want to die, not the good ones.
