Hello lostsierra, Michigan's rural areas are the same way. Unfortunately, the large cities are dominated by progressive hacks and their population is a large enough voting block to be ruinous... regards, O.A.
If not more so... ;-) Were it up to us, we'd secede from California.. oh wait, we're trying to do just that! Problem is - the urban Californian looter majority don't like that we are telling them "good luck without us"... they don't like having their resource grab threatened.
Problem is, granting Certiorari is fairly rare... however... being a hot button, they may pick it up... Just glad we have some justices on SCOTUS that are not Obama Rollover Apointees for this one!
By imposing, I mean running for political positions. We libertarians believe that everyone should be basically free to do as they please so long as it doesn't harm others. Thus, why would I seek elective office the very reason of which is to impose restrictions on others? If I believe in liberty I'm certainly not going to seek to restrict it for others.
And, oh, btw, marketing is research, what you are describing is called "sales." I'm not ignorant and know the difference.
Marketing is not imposing. Big error. Libertarians and Objectivists have been big failures in marketing ideas for decades. Your ignorance is typical of the problem, not the solution. Get a marketing 100 text book and start at the beginning.
Every case that is appealed to a federal appellate court gets a 3 judge panel, If a party wishes. he may file a motion for argument to be heard by all active sitting judges (called an en banc hearing). The judges then vote as to whether or not there is legal merit to having the full court hear the argument. Not many cases are granted a full court hearing. Or the losing party can file a petition for certiori with the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court justices then decide if the legal issues warrant a Supreme Court hearing.
It was not long ago that Cal was a Red State and that includes San Diego, for generations a Red State bastion. Recent elections are something of an anomaly. Many Cal counties are 2-1 Red and even 3-1 Red. Rural Cal is as Red as Utah and Idaho.
Re Cal: last year in a special election a conservative-libertarian type Repub won an election in a Hispanic district in Southern Cal. You have to know how to market yourself and your ideas. Most have no clue how to do those things. Rand fans as a group are about the most clueless at marketing I've ever seen.
This is the most unstable appeals court in the country, There have been more Ninth Circuit ruling overturned by SCOTUS than any other court. If you want gun rights you need to move to AZ. We have no permit carry concealed or not and law enforcement does not mind that. Other than Phoenix, there is less crime in the rest of state, only 2%.
Exactly, you do not know if the individual that you having road-rage with is packing. I like Brewer, she is not perfect, but better than Napolitano. She fits right in the People's Republic. Moved over a year ago and do not miss it at all.
* You got that right. Am a gold miner, mine owner and we all are often armed. And polite to each other. On occasion I have escorted armed poachers, also called claim jumpers, off my own and othe'rs mines while armed myself. The .45 Colt Blackhawk on my hip eliminates arguments and insures good manners on both sides. See to believe!
You are right. Most of California by area is quite red. I live in a usually red district, barely elected a Demo last time to Congress. The socialist belt is along the coast - basically San Fran Bay Area, LA area and Sac area.
Anyway, IIRC AZ has only had permit-less concealed carry for 3 years now, and before that Governor Nutpolitano vetoed almoat every law crossing her desk that would have improved gun rights there. (So is it any wonder she's now chancellor of the University of California System, living in Berlekey??)
Strangely enough, I don't recall a huge uptick in gun-related homicide and violence since they allowed permitless carry... the media would NEVER publish this... but it goes to prove the AASIAPS* postulate.
