[QUOTE="Keyser328, post: 1287410, member: 10111"] Quakes are not a big deal, they're fairly rare, and unless you live in one of the cities built on a fault line, you won't have an issue. The real plague are the yuppies and the gangs. Those are the things to fear. Hippies are yesterdays news. Most of them live in their own towns and hug each other and trees, leaving the majority of the population alone. Many parts of Cali are nice. Its pretty, its temperate, and its beautiful. Sadly, so much of that is ruined by the nosy, uppity, self righteous morons who feel their opinion means more than any other, and feel the need to enforce that on the populace. Sadly, that is the majority of the people, and more importantly, they are the vocal, visible majority. I have family that has been out there since '38, back when Cali really was the "golden coast". Now it is a social wasteland :( I personally carry something different, and avoid at all costs any area where I feel I would [I]need[/I] to protect myself. Every time I go back to visit old friends or family that hasn't left yet, the more I realize its getting worse out there. :disappoin [/QUOTE]
