i dont know how people can live there with all those stupid laws they pass,

i mean they do have some beautiful girls and nice cars and stuff but the cost of living matched with all the green living and stupid laws makes me NOT ever want to live there,

I have a 56 inch TV LED projection TV that only uses 150 watts.
I also have an old 26 inch CRT TV that uses 400 watts.

By California's logic, my 26 inch TV is better.

Seriously. I could never live there. I will visit as its only 6 hours from Phoenix but all the stupid laws, particularly the gun laws really push me away. I conceal my glock every where and not having it when I go to California sucks. Makes me feel naked LOL!

Good thing you clowns don't read the WHOLE article. :poke:


Rest assured, this doesn't mean the end of the television as we know it. As the California Energy Commission notes, as of now, over 1,000 televisions already meet the 2011 standards, so many manufacturers won't have to panic in order to comply with the regulations, at least for now.

Bottom line: Most LCD televisions will be safe under the 2011 law, and many plasmas will as well, but come 2013, everyone's going to have to do some serious belt-tightening.







I see no issue for Consumers. Manufacturers just have to be more energy efficient. Hmm, JUST like the Auto makers. :idea:

The FEDS are not going to bust down your door and arrest you for that 65" rear projector in the living room.

No joke. I will never understand their logic. Just like when a bayonet stud was illegal under the assualt weapons ban, because we should really worry about someone with an AR-15 using a bayonet on the end of their rifle to kill someone? :bash:

And yes my extra 7 rounds in my G17 mag is what makes it lethal and therefore illegal. :bored: What sucks even more is the transporting laws.

Why do people feel the need to insult each other? Can't we all just get along? :rollseyes :D I just posted up the article because I thought it was funny that of all states, California is the first to come up with something like that. Perhaps this should be moved to smackdown?

It's going to be real funny when they decide to limit what cars you can buy.

The states $20 billion in the red and has no idea how to fix it, so they waste time passing laws like this.
