"If California is lost, do you really think that things will stop there? For goodness sake, you do realize, don't you, that once California is gone, next to go will be Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, etc., etc."

BS. Look at that county-by-county Red-vs.-Blue voting map - and you'll fast see why your "domino theory" of gun control today is even loonier than Lyndon Johnson's "domino theory" of Vietnam to Hawaii was in the 1960s.

The commies lost virtually every county in Kalifornia but the coastal urban ones - hardly anything indicating a trend that could propagate to the Mountain States or the non-coastal West.

While I don't concede that your theory is correct (after all, 20 years ago there would have been many more "red" counties than there are now) . . .

It still makes absolutely no sense to give up and QUIT - We have NOTHING to gain by quitting - and MUCH to gain by all pulling together and working for our common goal!

By just giving up you do nothing but embolden our enemies who then think that we don't have the stomach to actually fight for what we believe in!

I'll sleep much better by ignoring your advice, and instead heeding the advice of Theodore Roosevelt . . .

THE CREDIT BELONGS TO THOSE WHO

ARE ACTUALLY IN THE ARENA, WHO STRIVE

VALIANTLY; WHO KNOW THE GREAT

ENTHUSIASMS, THE GREAT DEVOTIONS,

AND SPEND THEMSELVES IN A WORTHY CAUSE;

WHO AT THE BEST, KNOW THE TRIUMPH

OF HIGH ACHIEVEMENT; AND WHO,

AT THE WORST, IF THEY FAIL, FAIL

WHILE DARING GREATLY, SO THAT THEIR

PLACE SHALL NEVER BE WITH THOSE COLD

AND TIMID SOULS
WHO KNOW NEITHER

VICTORY NOR DEFEAT.

The people in those costal urban areas, areas that include AnnaZ; Mercuria; HangFire; Lady Jenn; Kithlyara; feinswinesuksass; abigail2; labusiness; gc4nra; L,TOWM; NRA_lifer_RC; doug from upland; Bob J; StoneColdGOP; Mr.B.goes.to.Washington; beauregardless; Ron C.; DoughtyOne; RonDog; Buckeroo; Left_Coast_Conservative; BibChr; Travis McGee; diotima; Bella Bru; Willa Johns; BadJoe; Henchster; Vanman; Janet Green and many others, are now paying twice what they were paying last year for electricity. A point which needs to be hammered home to the sheeple who voted blue!
