Not Idaho. Snow twelve months a year and the worst knife and gun laws!

Yeah, forget Idaho. Far left politics, gun-hating, knife-hating, high taxes, and miserable weather. And it's an ugly state too that hates outsiders. Oh, and lots of Nazis...

Think S. Carolina would get a vote from me. Warmer weather and decent gun laws. Not stinkin car inspection either.

Worst compared to where? I can't imagine that the laws are worse than California, Washington, Illinois, New York, NJ, etc., but I'm willing to be educated!

Add cesspool Ma. to your list. More stinkin gun restrictions coming next year I am sure. I even have to travel to R.I. or N.H. for menthol cigs. Forget about fireworks too. Amazed we are allowed spring assist knives for now.

Most of everything east of Ohio and north of Virginia are no-go for this rhino. I would go to NH if I had a reason, but there's no way to get there by land without crossing through places I won't go.

yeah Maine and N.H. not bad. Got permitless carry too. Cheaper cigs too! Ma. and R.I terrible as usual

I would love NH, but I fear they will be swallowed up by their neighbors soon.

Sad to think about.

Not yet but getting closer - it’s looking like I might be able to swing a place with a dock on a channel in Clearlake, CA. Not my first choice but aside from some meth and some fire issues it’s a pretty sweet place - I spent many summer vacations there as a kid.

Once I’ve secured housing I’m putting in my paperwork and I’m out.

Wish me luck!!
