    The other thing--something that is not allowed to be said in establishment circles--is that voting patterns in California have become exceedingly eccentric, as they have in Seattle and even in some places in Texas.

    For example, check on the population of Los Angeles County (around 9.8 million). Then eliminate the number who aren't of voting age (roughly 2.4 million). Then exclude the non-US citizens (anywhere from 24-40% or higher. Assume the midpoint of that, and you get around 4.9 million eligible voters. Total registered voters was 5.1 million, which means over or close to 100% of eligible voters registered. Even better, around 3.5 million voted--which means that in LA County, a place not known for its civic participation, something like 72% of eligible voters voted--far about the national average.

    And, of course, over 70% of those who voted cast their ballots for Hillary.

    I've been starting to think that maybe the US citizens in California didn't vote for the socialism they are now saddled with, and that perhaps the same thing is going on in Washington.

    ^^^You mean sort of like the failed Michigan recount where they'd open up ballot boxes in strongly democratic Detroit precincts tallied with 300 votes and find 58 paper ballots inside?

    And in California, with our Motor-Voter automatic registration of driver license applicants, and the fact that we aggressively issue licenses to illegal aliens, and the fact that several California Politico's openly advocate for illegals to vote......It is not hyperbole to suggest that California is attempting a hostile takeover of the rest of the country. I just don't get the discrimination, though......I mean, why do you deny those citizens of other countries who haven't made it here yet the right to vote in American elections? Doesn't seem fair....

    Or the 50 precincts in Philly in 2012 that went 100% for Obama in 2012, all of which precincts had kicked out the GOP poll watchers at the start (which meant that they couldn't see the number of votes already on the voting machines or ensure that they actually recorded any votes and weren't simply pre-loaded)?

    Yeah, sort of like that, but perhaps mainly consisting of non citizens and their "helpers" submitting a massive number of absentee ballots--absentee ballots having now become the norm in many California areas in which the population does not primarily consist of US citizens.

    Very good point. Perhaps in the future California could allow the rest of the world to vote by automatically setting a number of "world" votes that would amount to 51% or so of the total vote and then allowing the state legislature to take trips to expensive holiday destinations, determine who the world wants elected, and then casting the reserved votes in favor of what the rest of the world demands.

    Indeed, why not just do that and get rid of elections here? It would be cheaper in the long run than running elections that are actually little more than farces.

    Rally in Oly this Friday
    Rally 4 UR Rights
    Set aside January 13th. We are going to Olympia to Rally for Our Rights again. Our main goal this year is just as it has been the last couple of years. We are rallying to our representatives. We will have a short rally at 9:00 AM to discuss the current issues regarding our right to keep and bear arms. Following this all attendies are asked to get to your representatives to meet and discuss the issues with them. We will have a team there to both help you find your reps and to help you write letters to them as well. In the past these have been quite successful. Those attending were able to get to many of their representatives to meet and speak with them. Let's do this again folks and see if we can get 1000 people there this year. We know it is a weekday so please do whatever is necessary to get that day free.

    Please note: We would like to ask anyone that carries firearms to please keep them holstered or slung. Each of us is responsible for our own actions. That includes both appropriate safety and conducting ourselves in a respectful manner that will reflect positively on the group as a whole. Thanks.
    Hopefully the Goddamned idiot OCers will stay away this year.

It's clear to me that their efforts at income equality are failing on a monumental scale. Surprise...surprise.
    I'm starting a ballot initiative for Washington State to secede from Seattle.

    It is also worth mentioning that despite the meager resulting contributions, you can also support the Second Amendment Foundation via Amazon Smile as your selected charity every time that you make an Amazon purchase. Preferably a purchase of Clinch Picks.
