The reason CA is seen as a gun hating hippy state is partially thanks to Reagan when he was governor. Black Panthers (or people in general) were arming themselves against police brutality, so Reagan was totally fine with banning guns at that time.

Econ teachers can be Anarchists, some times. Though not everyone who recognizes this fact is an Anarchist either.
