Hold onto your coffee bros! 
Well I had my day in court yesterday with the California burned out raison neighborsā¦
They tried to get a āNo Contactā Order against me for:
1- Firearmsā¦whatever that means? Lol
2- No Trespassing.
The judge didnāt question me on anything about firearms.
The neighbors saidā¦.āHeās throwing cat s#!t over the fence line and has large mirrors pointed at our houseā 
I said soā¦? Lol
I showed the judge an email where they wanted to trade their
Cannabis sativa and Indica for my organic figs and blueberries I growā¦
The judge threw the paperwork back to the whackos and said to keep trading maryjane for my figs and blueberries then asked me for help with his own fig bushes!
Thereās more to the storyā¦just donāt want you to spit your coffee twice this morningā¦

Imagine if they had guns (and were allowed to use them)ā¦ 
Police warned residents against carrying weapons. āWeād remind people that activity like arming yourself puts you, the community and others at potential risk, and you could risk criminal charges,ā a spokesman said.

Opinions vary, but I consider myself a logical, common sense kind of guy. For the life of me I canāt fathom how arming myself puts me at risk in any wayā¦unless weāre talking about the risk of NOT having my ass handed to me by someone else.
So I guess thereās thatā¦

New Bill in SC congress & about time 
ā Additional fees may be coming for incoming South Carolina residents who want to legally drive on their new home stateās roads.
Droves of newcomers have made South Carolina one of the nationās fastest-growing states.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, over 129,000 people moved to South Carolina in 2019, largely from North Carolina and Georgia.
A bill dubbed the āYankee taxā could require the newest Palmetto State locals to pay $500 total in one-time fees for new driverās licenses and vehicle registration.
Republican Sen. Stephen Goldfinch says his proposal seeks to ensure the new neighbors pay their fair share for infrastructure already funded by existing

And THATāS why we retire to Tennessee instead. Idiots.
And why the hell dub it a āYankee Taxā when most of the new people are from North Carolina and Georgia? Again, idiots.

Iām down there every year. The traffic is worse every year and Iām sure you guts hate it. But thatās everywhere anymore so get used to it. And how does it make any sense to punish the people who move there but let all the tourists skate? Just raise the gas tax and EVERYBODY pays their fair share. The other way makes absolutely zero sense. Iām all for voting Republican, but this guy sounds like a true jackass.

One of the reasons people may have moved there is to escape draconian taxes. Taxing them for just moving there goes along the same lines as Newscum in commiefornia who wants to tax every citizen who moves out. Dumbass idea IMHO.

But, but, butt ā¦ Iād love it if Texas adopted this disincentivation strategy. And, I only sorta jest - I tire of folks moving here for a better life without any comprehension of why life is better here.

We all hate the a$$holes who move to a better area, and vote the same way they did that made their area a $hithole in the first place. Makes no sense, and libitards usually donāt. But punishing everyone who moved there is asinine.
Iām with @Ironbutt70 here. Imagine trying to move from California to South Carolina if all these jagoff politicians got these laws into place. Especially maybe a family trying to start over getting a good opportunity? Kinda killing the American dream with all this not in my backyard bull$hit.

I canāt disagree at all with your remark.
If I remember right Years back Florida did something similar by charging a rather large fee for 1st time registration of a new vehicle in Florida.
Been so long ago I canāt remember the exact particulars. But it did not go over well.

This, but feel the concept applies more universally. Genuinely amazing how many people this is lost onā¦and not only why itās better, but also whatās been sacrificed to allow for it as well as the responsibility of all in maintaining it.
