Being a native of a very liberal state, I've always felt a distinct lack of love from my brothers in the Free States. "We" aren't the ones promoting the type of crap that happens in CA, MA, etc., and the vast majority of those of us who rail against it, fight it, and eventually seek shelter in more conservative climes are most certainly not bringing any kind of support leftism with us.
Lots of us FReeper gun owners sympathize with our brothers in the nonfree states, believe me. We don’t think there’s a liberal voting majority in them, quite the contrary, there’s a conservative and/or rural majority dominated by the liberal politics of one megacity in the state.
PA, IA, NY, VA, WA, OR, all fit this model, IMO. Am I correct?
