Why is everything interesting banned in california?

Every time I go look at stuff in some online stores I freequent I see some item labeled "cannot ship to california" It seems they have some paranoid lawmakers down there that want to ban lots of cool stuff. Good thing I dont live there I guess.

It's funny that you seem to get so pansy about people claiming to kill the President online, but if there's actually something that would be useful for an assassination in real life, you love it.

Nothing. They banned something that could harm the californian environment... you appear to be missing out on something...

ooh clever....
  It's kind of funny that you talk about counterstrike all the time, because your realization of the social impacts of firearms is about that as much of a counterstrike player.

No.  Nor do I see any coherent lines of reasoning, but that's not exactly atypical of your threads.

In that case why is it ok for Canadians to come here and talk about stuff that doesn't affect them? Because unless they live here whats the problem right?
