They're hardly towns though. Most of the big cities surrounding Phoenix are all basically part of Phoenix, in terms of identity. You gotta go further out to find the real towns per se. Payson, Prescott, bullhead city, Jerome, tuba city, Sierra Vista, Bisbee, etc..

You start out by saying you're closing your businesses and moving to AZ. Then you say you're going to see if you like AZ better than CA.
Troll better.

There's a reason everything is gray and brown here: dust. We get frequent blowing dust and dust storms, any color other than brown or gray and your house just looks dirty all the time. There's really no fighting it lol.

not just dust but architecturally too. honestly if I were you I would move back to St Louis, and pretend to be an older user on message boards again

Them are standard capacity magazines. And right now they are expensive as fuck because biden is gonna try to ban all of that shit.


They're expensive because there's a shortage. Ammo and mag shortages happen every election year, and was exacerbated by covid.

Yeah, I definitely plan to visit more of Arizona as well as checkout New Mexico, Texas, etc. I also want to go to Bisbee to see if I can find Doug Stanhope lol.

I saw enough on my short trip to know its time to leave California.

TC is shitting himself on the MAGA board crying about voter fraud and how Trump really won the election.

The fake lawyer doesn't even understand how the court system works

TC has been brainwashed by Fox News, I live in west LA and its great, I see homeless around but its not like they factor into my life. I dont wake up and think Im so annoyed by the homeless. I cant see how anyone thinks the homeless is a valid reason to move away. TC cant hack it here so hes moving somewhere cheaper. Hopefully he enjoys his boring life in the suburbs.

Im cool with living in a swing state. At least my vote will matter. Im also cool with living in the toughest state in America when it comes to cracking down on illegals since I came to this country as a legal immigrant before becoming a citizen.

Also, I didnt see a single Antifa dork or blm protest. Maybe they exist in Phoenix, but I didnt see any where we went. I didnt even see so much as a Che Guevara shirt. I saw a total of 1 Biden Harris sticker.

No antifa, but we have blm in Phoenix. Their protests stay peaceful though. Except for one time, and that was mostly white folks looting, Logan Paul was even there lol

In AZ, there are no real confrontations like that. It's basically understood here that everyone has a gun, Democrat or republican, doesn't matter, everybody is packing. Why road rage is extremely rare and confrontations rarely go beyond verbal.

I tell people all the time if they want to be happy in life. They need to leave California. California has gone down the gutter in just a decade it's crazy. Just please be mindful of how you vote when you move to another state.

Californians tend to vote the same way as they did in California forgetting the reason why they left California in the first place.

having a bunch of conspiracy nutjob shit in his sig and account name is usually a given

this time he named his account after some doomsayer pastor who apparently had prophetic dreams about how the country is going to basically go up in flames by the end of the year

Ehhh, there already exists democratic establishments there, I can't speak for TX, but here in Arizona, our democrats are closer to libertarians, honestly. They lean more left, but are still about personal liberty and don't want homeless everywhere. Maricopa county sheriff is a Democrat, and he's not remotely like Californian democrats.
AZ politics is kinda weird lol

Bible thumpers aren't really a thing here, so the conservatives mostly just focus on complaining about the big government (and increasingly getting into conspiracy territory), and everyone here carries a gun, even the bleeding heart liberals

However, when we drove through Los Angeles, it was endless tent cities of homeless people along freeways, under bridges, etc. So Cal is now back in the purple tier, meaning they only allow very limited outdoor seating, I believe.

Arizona has a higher poverty rate than Cali tho

Yeah, AZ wasnt my first choice, but my friend and his mom love it. After seeing it firsthand, I can see why. I originally was considering some place like Idaho. Maybe Ill still end up there some day.
