Re: CA:New law to prevent secret recordings of conversations with Planned Parenthood
For many of them it is like the frog and the boiling water thing. Some of them still don't realize the trouble they're in and those that do can't do much about it now. Moving from one state to another or so far is not that easy for many.

Re: CA:New law to prevent secret recordings of conversations with Planned Parenthood
30 years ago for me, but very similar experiences to TAM and JALLEN for me. I've been to many states throughout this great country and it just has a different feel. Now, I haven't been back to visit anyone in NY since 1983 so I'm don't know about that particular hole.JALLEN wrote:Yep. It's become a socialist hole.The Annoyed Man wrote:California is a de facto fascist state. All of its many charms are just window dressing. Every time I go back there to visit family, I feel like I've entered a third world nation......a replica of Mexico. And not because of the number of Latinos.... but because it has that same feeling that you do not enjoy the same constitutional protections you have "back home".......that you have to "watch what you say".....that maybe the police are NOT your friend.....stuff like that. It's weird. I lived most of my life there until moving here in 2006, but it no longer seems familiar whenever I return there — and it's not because I have changed (although I have). It's because California has changed. Drastically.
When I was sent there on Navy duty nearly 50 years ago, it seemed like paradise. The weather was fantastic, in San Diego anyway. The O Clubs featured a variety of enthusiastic young women. Ronald Reagan was Governor. You could learn just about anything you wanted at a local junior college, except professions, law, medicine, etc., just pay the $2 and buy the books. Ricky Nelson, and Annette Funicello, lived there. Disneyland was there, the Magic Kingdom. The roads were good.
Not anymore.
