There's politics and then there's far left politics.

We couldn't eat out unless we showed a Vax card during covid.

If you don't agree with your kid's desire for a sex change, the state wants to take your kid.

They want to ban natural gas in the house.

They want to ban gas powered lawn tools.

They want to ban gas powered vehicles.

I don't mind some leftist policies, but the stuff they were doing was too extreme for us.


The final straw for me was when the state of Washington closed ALL fishing in March of 2020 due to COVID. I tell this to people here in Georgia and South Carolina and they tell me that is not possible...and it ain't in South Carolina and Georgia. Try to close fishing in the middle of the crappie spawn? Your will die. It not only happened in Washington but they arrested and fined people. Lots of them. I was already nearly fed up due to the restrictions in place on accessing public spaces and land that were in place before COVID. Closing ALL fishing was the final straw for me. Politically I am a progressive in Georgia. In Washington I was a far right nut job...and I was fine with that, but when there is 300 miles of suitable duck hunting habitat that is owned by the people of the United States and only 1.5 miles of it is open to hunting during prescribed conditions? frick that.

By the way the staunchest conservatives in Washington are perfectly OK with that situation. They never question it and if someone does they will call that person anything but a son of God. They talk the talk but they are completely fine with the state and federal government doing anything they can dream up. Thats what passes for a conservative in Washington, Idaho, Oregon and Utah. I know some folks think politics do not impact their lives....that is because they live on the east coast or the midwest/gulf coast where the impact is not felt as keenly. Let them live a year in Idaho and if they hunt and fish or even walk to go for a walk they will have a different experience...they may not recognize it but its all to real.
