Needles California is to become a 2A Sanctuary City?

[dennishoddy]

Needles has declared itself a Second Amendment sanctuary city, a first-in-California designation that leaders in this remote desert town see as a first step toward changing the state’s toughest-in-the-nation gun control laws.

Needles in easternmost San Bernardino County hugs the Arizona state line and is just miles from the Nevada border. The city of nearly 5,000 is closer to Las Vegas (111 miles) than the 200-mile trek west to the county seat in San Bernardino and closer in worldview to their next-door neighbors in the Silver and Copper states.

Gun rights in a state with the most stringent gun control laws in the nation are very important to the people of the Mojave Desert – a message that Needles Mayor Williams wants to send to lawmakers in Sacramento.

“The City Council wanted our community to know that we support their Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms,” Williams said in a statement June 15 after city council members unanimously approved the declaration. “While we recognize that all lawful gun owners are responsible for ensuring they are compliant with state and federal gun laws, we also recognize that the State of California cannot adopt laws that impair the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment.”

Good I hope it works and spreads to other California cities.

I like their spirit, but I still won't go to Commiefornia until all their hogwash firearms laws are revoked.

Well, I headed for Las Vegas
Only made it out to Needles

It doesnt make sense to restrict weapons and import virtually anyone, it leaves the people defenseless and easy pickin's.

Then sadly, you probably won’t be going there.

I know, and it is sad. Hawaii is probably the only liberal state I'll visit at least once.

Hawaii can stick it too these places don’t get my tourism money

Even though I was stationed there 3 times during my years in service, (last time there was in 1993) we went to Hawaii on vacation for a week in February, earlier this year. It is pretty, and I'm glad I was able to take her to visit, but I wouldn't trade my life in Oklahoma for it at all. It's too crowded, has too much traffic, and is way too expensive. And for some odd reason, crimes against persons there is real darn high. (Gee; I wonder why?)

I was helping my aunt and uncle move from San Jose back to Oklahoma in 1987. Stopped in Needles that first night on the road. I think it was 110 that day? Got bit by fire aunts hooking up all the hoses and stuff to the trailer, tried to swim in a pool but the water was like lukewarm pee due to the heat and not very refreshing. Never wanted to go back..... now I have a reason.
