Lived here all my life!! Growing up in the 60's in the Bay Area was heaven!! We got the Beatles,at Candelstick,Jimi Hendricks,Days on the Green at the Oakland Coliseum,The Fillmore West,also was present at the "Avalon Ballroom" watching "Big Brother' record "Cheap Thrills" surfed from Monterey to the Russian River outlet! Went to summer camp as a child! Skateborded in the skateboard parks that were invented HERE in Cali!! All these things and lots more to boot! Yes,its not easy to live here,but, we don't have to shovel snow outta the driveway to go to the store!! I could go on and on, but you get my point! And Texas??? You can keep it! Texans don't belong any where BUT Texas! Been there! Was glad to leave there! Wouldn't go there for a vacation either, yuk!~

Quoted from jj44114:
Been to San Francisco lately?

Living here all my life,I have to say SF.has turned into a high priced, dump!! And Oakland has turned into a third world, filthy,crime ridden,Ghetto,that should be bypassed by all the freeways!! The stupid part is you have to pay over 4hundred grand to live in a roach ridden, clapboard hovel, with dirt yards and broken down cars parked everywhere!But this is happening everywhere

Quoted from phil-lee:
In 1980 a bunch of biker friends decided to go to California for the Summer. The plan was to drive out in a semi with their bikes and gear loaded.
Several of these guys were straight up bad asses, the best bikers NC had at the time. Said they wanted to see how Real Bikers lived and played, so first stop was Oakland.
2 weeks later I saw one of them in the curb market, told him I was surprised, how did it go?
"Man, we had to come back quick, it was too fucking wild, too fucking wild. We nearly got murdered, arrested, and all of us got robbed"
This first hand account stayed with me for the next 20 years.

. Ha ,haha,if the HAs don't kill youth Gypsy Jokers surly will!! That will teach you to ride with your colors in Oakland!!!

Quoted from RTS:
Pretty sure everyone who reads this thread agrees that half of the US population is full of complete idiots.
And that these idiots belong to the other half.
If we continue like this, we are truly fucked.
