I lived there for a year back in the 80's. I left L.A. just as the riots began and spent a nerve wracking hour heading out of town towards Nevada whilst people were blasting each other on the freeways. Friggin insane.
On arrival in Nevada, there was an audible gasp when I admitted that, back in Oz, I didn't own a gun... For my own "safety", I was then instructed in the use of the guns that were kept in the "truck" I was given for my personal use; They INCLUDED a 9mm pistol, a long barrel magnum and a 12 guage, pump action shot gun. I declined the military style rifle... M16 from memory.
Bloody lunatic country!
