I am a California Native. At the age of 40, with a wife, 2 year-old son, and 5 year-old daughter. In spite of the beauty of this state, I refuse to live here any more. Although this is a gun oriented site, leaving behind the ridiculous gun laws is icing on the cake. Its the attitudes, politics, and economy of this state that has put the nail in the coffin. I don't see it getting any better and I don't want to raise my kids here.
Texas is a natural choice for me.
From high school through college, one of my best friends was from Texas. We used to drive out to visit his mother in Bowie in the summers and I always enjoyed it. The people were always good and more real than those around me in California. One memory has always stuck with me. I remember being on a dock at the end of a day of water skiing. There was an older gentleman having trouble getting his boat on his trailer. At least four guys on the dock in jeans jumped right in the water and helped him. In CA, most people would point and laugh at him or at the very least have simply ignored him.
As another bonus, I have been a Cowboys fan since before I was in grade school. Probably from Super bowls in the 70's.
Also, the economy is good in Texas and the Dallas-Fort Worth area would be a good place for my company to open a new office.
So, Peoples Republik of Kalifornistan loses 4 more. I hope your great stat will be happy to have us.
Likewise, Calguns will hopefully be replaced by Texasguntalk.
Thanks for your time.
