California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed a controversial new law regarding judges' discretion on whether or not to add individuals to the state’s sex offender registry who have committed sodomy with minors.

Newsom signed the bill, passed by the Democratic-controlled state legislature, into law without comment on Friday, expanding the discretion granted to judges in statutory rape cases, according to ABC 7 News Los Angeles.

California law permitted judges to decide whether a man was placed on the sex offender registry if he had consensual intercourse with someone 14 to 17 years old and was not more than 10 years older than the other person. However, that discretion only applied to vaginal intercourse, which LGBT advocates, including the author of the new bill signed into law Friday, argued was discriminatory to gay men.

How perverted can Newsom's liberalism get, before he is thrown out of office by the voters? And this freak's freak thinks he wants to run for Dem pres in 2024...???

Shirley, you jest. He's playing to his base. DimRats are on board with this. Do you think anyone that is for abortion is going to be against pedos?

In one of Karl Marx’s poems, he said the following which reminds me of Gavin Newsome...

With disdain I will throw my gauntlet,
Full in the face of the world,
And see the collapse of this pygmy giant
Whose fall will not stifle my ardour.
Then will I wander godlike and victorious
Through the ruins of the world
And, giving my words an active force,
I will feel equal to the Creator."

There has to be a limit to freedom of sexual expression... That limit is animals and children... When society starts accepting people having sex animals and children... Society is over and anarchy has taken over.

Is that demon laughing at the misery of others? That effeminate tool isn’t even good enough to be governor over sewer rats.

Is it any wonder why folks are fleeing Calif.?

When do we charge these scumbags with a crime

[Lumper20]

They’re moving gradually to their goal which should be quite obvious given the new teen porn movie that just came out.

This is an example of what I was talking about. Californistan is a complete cluster.

Come to think of it, I recall a certain video of Obama who did a one on one interview with a certain journalist in a room together.

During that interview Obama was behaving and looking like someone who is all doped up and the guy interviewing him had to stop and ask him "Are you punch drunk?"

Obviously you just can stop and do a random drug test on the President but there is a distinct similarity here between Obama's incident and now Newsome crazy speech yesterday with the fires as a backdrop!

His constituents LOVE him, which says more about his constituents.
