    How so.

    And I left. The first time I left CA I didnt want to go back, but I did. Second time out? Not a chance Im going back

      My folks are in OK, and I am fighting tooth and nail to get out of this place. I love California, but OK and TX are just different planets.

        I lived in CA for 20 years and had to travel to TN and Florida for the last 1 1/2 years. I want back to Orange County so bad. Yea, I've had a good time buying a Gen4 Glock, getting my CCW, and DPMS Panther 308 (no bullet button and 20+ round mags). BUT, I still want back to the great California. Gripe all you want guys, for me the desert, mountains, ocean, and west coast sun can't be beat. California dreamin every day.........

            Your not very bright. Texas has desert, mountains, ocean, and TEXAS sun plus you get all your rights. YOU my friend can go to hell, Ill go to texas -Davy crockett
            And BTW I HOPE YOU HAVE A JOB LINED UP cuz you aint getting one here. Its lucky a wholes like yourselfs coming from a good state and coming to a f'd up state like this and leaving one less job for people already here. And all you californians talking about "welcome, its beautiful" Yea right you must have never been out of this sh** whole. I've been in all 50 states the closest to being a sh** whole is indiana. The hell with the "beauty" if you want beauty move to hawaii or washington org. I'd rather be able to own a home for less than 500,000 then be able to go to a beach.

              There is more to life than guns. CA is nice, I like it. Except for the butt raping.

                Guns, Taxes, speed limits, cost of living, and in general how nice people are. All better in TX, or just about anywhere outside CA, short of major metro areas.

                    LOL - did you ever consider that a large percentage of the adults living in California didn't grow-up in California? They were taught those "friendly ways" in other states and other countries...

                    I've said it before: I invite anyone who wants to leave CA to do so - the more tourists that go back wherever they came from, the better this state will be!

                    1849: Tourists come to CA for the gold and stayed.
                    1930: Tourists come to CA to flee the dustbowl and stayed.
                    1950: Tourists come to CA for the aircraft industry and stayed.
                    1967: Tourists come to CA to get high and stayed.
                    1977: Tourists come to CA for the defense industry and stayed.
                    1983: Tourists come to CA for the PC industry and stayed.
                    1995: Tourists come to CA for the dotcom industry and stayed.

                    It's been all downhill since ~2001-2002 when the dotcom bubble burst...

                      Going to say it one last time. Born and raised in CA, glad I left.

                      Keep living up to that CA A**hole stereotype : ), the french of the US

                              In no way does this contradict what you said, but there are also semi-mass exoduses from CA. In the 80's, when I was living in Spokane, WA, it seemed like all of Orange County (CA) was moving up there. Soooooo many Californians moving to that area. Now, there's a heck of a lot of Californians moving to Idaho, among other places. Obviously TX is getting a lot of new residents, but I know ID is popular among Californians these days.

                              ...and, of course, I'm moving back to Eastern WA in late spring after being here in the Bay Area since 2001... I'll miss living on the water. San Francisco is beautiful. Crazy, but really pretty and the weather is great -- in my neighborhood especially (yes, it varies WILDLY depending on where you are in the city). Crab fishing in Pacifica will be missed. Food is cool here. But Spokane and Hayden (by Coeur d'Alene) offer more for me -- lake cabin, outdoors, winter, space, a lack of nude people (and by people I mean men) in public, CCW, significantly cheaper cost of living, less "the man," blah blah blah... trade-offs...

                                Yup, you are right. I remember in the late '70s I visited some folks at Flathead Lake, Montana and they were complaining about the Californians that were buying the land around the lake.

                                I guess man has been moving from one place to another ever since our hairy ancestors made their way out of East Africa (or we were kicked out of Eden, whichever you prefer).
