well, I've never been to California other than vacation, but don't they have some rather restrictive gun laws there? The 2004 LP candidate Badnarik said he lived there until one year CA government passed several restrictive gun laws.
According to
this, California is a distant third between Massachusetts and Hawaii for level of gun control. The most pro-gun control states are, in order, Massachusetts, Hawaii, California, Connecticut, Maryland, New Jersey, Illinois, New York, Iowa, North Carolina, and Rhode Island; the most anti-gun control states are, in order, Maine, Louisiana, Alaska, Texas, Montana, Kentucky, Vermont, North Dakota, Georgia, and Arkansas.
However, I would not judge libertarianism soley based on hand gun laws. California is most definitely more liberal on social issues than on economic ones.
"After escaping that socialist wasteland, I moved to Austin Texas" in his bio.
Let me get this straight: to escape liberalism, he moved to
Austin, Texas? Interesting. ;)
