I think its fake. I looked up AB-69. It has to deal with police body cameras.

AB-69 seems to be "California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006: market-based compliance mechanisms: exemption."

So I would say satire.

And yet I still would not be surprised to find out it was real.

YES! My ‘buddy’ has promoted me to ‘chum’ and says in another year I have a shot at being one of the ‘ubiquitous guys’.

I went to the CA Assembly bill website, and the only thing coming up under “AB-69” is an amended bill dealing with peace officers wearing body cameras. There’s also nothing on the Speaker’s home bage (Toni Atkins).

So, I’m thinking this is satire or a hoax.

Can we eliminate oppressive politicians while we’re at it? No more rulers or nannies.

That it is difficult to tell if it is satire shows we believe it is possible for the CA legislature to propose something this asinine, and it is. In today’s world, it is harder and harder to write satire as the ludicrous becomes the norm. Just ask Catlin Jenner.

The difference between reality and satire is getting harder to discern.

Oh, but they are a must. Who else will deliver us from private bullies and nannies?

No. I don’t even see how that is possible.

Took the words right out of my mouth. We are so upside-down as a society right now, most anything seems possible. I’m starting to think aliens have landed and we’re all living in a John Carpenter’s “They Live!” scenario.

It would explain an awful lot...

IT IS SATIRE.

The sad thing is that this nation (and especially California) have devolved so far that the fact it is satire was not blatantly apparent.

Swordmaker's and Kathy's proposed diagnosis for the new IDC-10 addenda:

321.0 SPLAT Liberal Cerebral Defenestration (LCD) or Liberal Acquired Brain Absence (LABA), Complete loss of rationality, cognition, and cerebration due to indiscriminately keeping one's mind so far open that the brain falls out. First and subsequent encounters.

Let's eliminate titles such as Democrat State Legislator, State Senate President Pro Tem, Democrat State Senator, Democrat State Assemblyman and Assemblywoman and Assemblyperson, Democrat California Governor, Speaker of the Assembly, Assembly Committee Chairperson, Democrat ward heeler, Democrat elector, Democrat party member. . . those are good titles to eliminate, don't you all think?

So if a company has no bosses, no one is accountable to anybody. What a concept!

The key that this is Satire is in the last two sentences. . .

"It has been suggested this be named the Willy Loman Freedom Act. He would be proud."

Willy Loman was the fictional character in "Death of a Salesman". He could NOT have been proud. The author is saying right out that it's fiction.
