More California Bullsh**

[HoneyBadger]

I still remember CHP doing a presentation at a safety stand down when I was stationed in the Whales Vag back in 2008. They basically told everyone that they won't pull you over for speeding unless you're doing at least 20 over, and it was true. Maybe it's changed since then, or maybe it's different up north. I know that was one of the few things I missed about being stationed in San Diego when I moved to Norfolk, VA.

Yeah... not true any more.

Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office (which is well known for not issuing any CCW permits, among other anti-Liberty things) have a local reputation of pulling people over and then fabricating a probable cause and finding some bullshit thing to write you up for, just to keep the revenue flowing. These are the guys that give the rest of law enforcement a bad name.

Born in CA.
Removed myself from CA in 1992.
Have NO DESIRE to go back. Not even a little.
Left my parents and inlaws there. Still no desire to go back, they can fly or drive here to visit if need be.

The whole excuse by CA folks that "I can't leave because all my family and my wife's family is here" is pathetic.

Kinda true... I got pulled over in SoCal with an acquaintance while we were motorcycling (sportbikes, at about 20mph > the limit) and my acquaintance adopted the tough-guy-F-cops attitude, I adoped the "yes, sir!" polite attitude. Acquaintance got the $300 ticket, I got off with a warning. The cop hadn't even talked to us separately.
