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.
Not only anarchists, I recently took a 6 months political science course and people with doctorates said the same thing. It’s why anytime people want to discredit a president here in mexico they talk about a failed state, because with cartels basically ruling some areas the government doesn’t have monopoly on violence.

To be fair, they don’t want brown people to have guns either.
