She recently moved to LA. About 5 months ago. She laughed at me when I told her she's making a mistake and that she should stay close to family here in MA (not that we are that much better than California).
Now her brothers are all pretty based patriots as is her father. Her mother is old school non-feminist type. Unfortunately for her, the school system turned her into a leftist during her teenage years.
She drove to NYC to attend BLM rallies and everything. Was right in the middle of the riots in Brooklyn recording everything.
She's no rioter herself and she's a soft little white girl but up until recently, she thought she was some sort of freedom fighter.
Anyway, she gets to LA and at first was sending me all these beautiful pictures of the landscape as she went to trips in the hills and ocean views etc.
But recently, she's been telling me about how bad crime is and she doesn't feel safe at night walking around. How it's filthy and how she's seen bums take a shit right across her street.
She lives just outside of downtown LA in some gentrified hipster area that up until prior to covid was apparently really nice and clean. But now, it's being overrun by homelessness and degeneracy.
So she calls me last night asking me how she can purchase guns in LA quietly. Now I have no fucking clue how so I told her to google it and suggested she get out of LA and find a gun dealer in a based red area to help her out with an AR15 she can use.
She then went on a rant about how disgusting everything and everyone is and how she can't wait for her contract at work to be done so she can, and I quote, "escape this fucking hell hole".
I assume she's gonna come back based af lol
Gun shops here are an oasis of based diehard patriots. None of them are woke, except maybe the folks at a chain store.
All in-state purchases have to be reported. Ammo, too, so buy that out of state as well. Those are done by the dealer. In general, handguns don't have to be registered if you own one, but I believe all long guns are supposed to be registered; shotguns may be an exception. A CA dealer will have all the laws down pat. They'll treat her right, but she'll have to go through the waiting period to buy.
The laws here are dizzying, designed to catch and close the dealerships, and I'm no expert. I think they tried to pass something about how you need to keep it in a locked container in a locked trunk when you travel, and I'm not sure if that passed or not. Honestly if she's not confident to look it up on her own, visiting a gun shop is the best way to go, whether she buys or not. Also a good way to meet based patriots in the neighborhood, because the woke don't hang out there. For self defense in the city, I'd recommend a handgun rather than a rifle, but the best gun is always the one you're most comfortable with.
Ammo has to reported? Jesus Christ
Every ammo purchase is recorded, only to approved buyers. They tried to make every cartridge serialized, but gave up after awhile. And you become approved to buy ammo by registering at least one gun. More than one reason why they call it Commiefornia.
