I mean, it is literally the Land of the Caliph.

Do they have a flag?
The onion is done
Florida first
Iran’s morality police would shit themselves if they walked down any of California’s beaches or anywhere in the blade.
Before or after the furious masturbation?
Yes.
I get what you’re doing, but let’s not give trump an excuse to bomb California… Could have gone with Louisiana or Florida
Even Iran doesn’t want those states.
Straight of hormuz… Mississippi River Delta…
Surely Alabama would have been a better fit?
Alabama wouldn’t put up with all those Muslims like California will. \s
That’s fine, let’s set up a date and let them fight it out
YES
That’s actually kind of funny
Fair enough.
my fellow Californians yearn for freedom
California declares independence from Iran
I don’t think the former Iranians in the area would be happy about that.
