Blue cities be catch-n-release for criminals. They can rob you everyday and you cannot do anything. If you kill one of their pet criminals, you go to jail.

Now if you are in red cities or states, it is shoot on site! Laughing Like Florida - Polk County.

VA just went full-retard this last cycle. So we are bracing for new taxes and 2A assaults all next 4 years.

No more tax stamps on silencers/ SBRs/ effective Jan 1- but the registry remains. It is odd-

I will be moving more south as I get close to retirement. I hope to find a happy medium where I can live in peace having no worries about being home invaded by the usual young scholars.


Then move west to Idaho. Do your research.


Just stay out of DC and LA and the rest of the states are all pretty close.

I maintain a home in Omaha, NE - I will keep that property. If I can grab a property in WVa, I will be golden.

All along the west coast is a lot worse than the entire blue coast of the east.

As far as bankruptcy protections, allow yourselves room so the ambulance chasers cannot eat into your private lives too. An LLC, or being incorporated will not be a bad idea.

Enjoy a good year, all.

California has lower homicide rates than both of those states. Haight Asbury is a nice welcoming neighborhood , and has Very Folsom parades.

again, wrong

fuck, do you just post to rage bait? you never add in the details, ever. I swear you post to up your post count because very seldom do you add anything to the conversation other than stir shit.

one could say I stir shit but the difference between you and me is I take the time to add facts in, something I wish more people would do.

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/state-stats/deaths/homicide.html

WV is .3 higher, point three...

NE is 1.8 lower

So sure, WV is "higher" if you consider less than 1/2 a point as "high" now queue the per capita argument....

Haight Ashbury crime is rated as a D- (i.e. bad)

https://crimegrade.org/assault-haight-ashbury-san-francisco-ca/

Id hardly call that "welcoming".

Everything sounds good on paper!

Yes, it's Alpha MOD time. Or maybe it's Gamma or Omega or Tau Smile

We are off the topic too much now so... LOCKED!

If there's an update on this bankruptcy, PM me and I'll unlock for new info.

In the meantime I'm putting my shadow investor people on it and we are going manipulate the stock, make some ca$h, then split up the company and sell it off for parts.
