Stephen Perry,
Kalifornia does have a "K" in it for a lot of us. Since the fifties Kali street rodders have substituted the "K" for "C" in several words. Like Kool, and Kustom, and Komps.
In this particular context, however; the "K" indicates a disdain for Kalifornia's very restrictive form of state government and the Kalifornia mentality that so many of its inhabitants (can't say citizens, too many are illegals) exhibit.
Here is Idaho we have a very popular bumper sticker that reads "Don't Kalifornicate Idaho."
You'll just have to, as the kids say, "Deal with it."
regards,
Rich
