    Denatured Alcohol Banned in California

    Heads up from CA, another issue to struggle with...

    Denatured Alcohol is no long available to purchase in CA. I've been following this issue for quite some time.

    I live on a boat. My boat stove to cook, runs on denatured alcohol. The boat is in CA, I am in CA, and now denatured alcohol can NOT be purchased in CA.

    I have enough fuel to cook for at least 6 months, so I'm not sweating yet. But, I live in a state where they are denying me the ability to cook meals for myself. Unbelievable.
    life is good.

    I figure the only way to remain free is to accept that I'm a criminal in CA.

    Now, I'm looking at being a bootlegger. Making runs to Nevada to sneak in denatured alcohol into CA....just so I can cook a can of chili. You can't make this shit up.

    I may as well sneak in a few high cap mags during my trips to NV.
    life is good.

    I can't find any legit reason online. It's like the issue doesn't even exist.

    Here is a hint. Buy Everclear and pee in it. It will be denatured then. Or you might just burn it as is.

    That's a bad hint, and a piss poor idea. Everclear is expensive (and also not available in CA). Cheaper to become a bootlegger. I expect more out of you, ziero. You need to step up your game when giving "hints".

    There's a lot going on in CA that seems to be off the books. Little attacks, such as denatured alcohol bans, to bigger ones such as the power outages.

    Lot's of folks filling up gas cans here.

    Many don't appreciate the value of that materiel for the upcoming boogaloo.

    Another reason not to be in California.

    You can't use white gas?
