>>Here is an example of when FR goes off the rails. Whenever a thread is posted talking about gun laws or gun control in a state that some posters absolutely hate (NY, CA, NJ, MA, CT, etc.), some posters act superior.
We are not off the rails. We do hate those states. We loathe them and wish they did not exist. But they do and we are stuck with them.
>>They also act as if these states are not part of America, and these states don’t have patriots, veterans, Christians, and pro-Constituttion citizens by the millions living there.
I used to live in CT. U-Haul rents trucks.
>>The sentiment of the boards is usually: “HA! Well F-%K that $_ithole state! HAHAHAHAHA!
Yep. Those states do seem to take great pride in doing things to make us say that. You seem to imply that your state does these things becuase of us and that they wouldnt if we just showed them more love here on FR.
>>What they don’t realize is that they are laughing at the demise of the Constitution, and of their own rights (no matter what state they live in). Gun control is a like a cancer. It spreads, rapidly sometimes.
We do realize it. We know that those states will act as the model for gun control that affects us all. We also realize that we cant vote in those states so we have ZERO power to change the outcome.
Likewise, the smart FReeper understands that freedom is dying in this country largely due to the prosperity that we create. It is a well-known cycle that destroys all free and prosperous cultures. They arent destroyed from outside. ISIS isnt a threat. NK isnt a threat. David Hogg and his generation is a threat. The people who call illegals immigrants are a threat. The Deep State is a threat.
We know that the courts, the education system, and the media are the enemies of freedom. So we look at CA, a truly vile place that we have no control over, and laughbecause thats all we can do. The cancer that is California will spread and there are no viable treatment options.
A surgeon would recommend excision, just like with McCain's bowel infection.
