Immigration: California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a repeal of 1994's overturned Prop. 187, calling it a law that "has no place on the state's books." What do you call a man who claims voters' choices have no place in government?
In most places out there, the name would be "tyrant," even if the word seems a bit fancy for the increasingly unpopular Gov. Brown.
Because the hard fact remains that in 1994, millions of California's voters, by a margin of 59% to 41%, voted in favor of denying "free" welfare, education and other benefits to illegal immigrants on the clear logic that a burglar who breaks into someone else's home doesn't have the right to eat the owner's food.
It was a legitimate decision for a people to make, given that in any democratic system, the participants have the right to control the purse.
But Brown's statements and those of his political allies, including those in the press, suggest an imperial contempt for the will of California's voters. After all, there was no need to sign a bill, given that a single judge had effectively overturned the will of the voters and subsequent governors failed to appeal, letting it die.
Meanwhile, the desire on the left to besmirch the will of the voters as Jim Crow racism has continued.
As the law's sponsor, state Sen. Kevin de Leon, a Democrat from Los Angeles, told the L.A. Times, Brown's signing of state Senate Bill 396 "closes a dark chapter in our state's history and brings dignity and respect to the national immigration debate."

We had already moved north because of that and other reasons. I miss the CA I was born, raised and worked in for many years but not the CA now.
There’s an LA Times poll out yesterday showing that only one in four California likely voters knows the name of the Republican candidate for Governor (Neel Kashkari) and three out of four likely voters support “a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens.”
It pisses me off to no end that 20% of the electoral votes needed to elect a president come from California’s 55 liberal Democrat electors.
Good, let them send up a flare and invite all the illegals to commiefornia. Give them all the welfare and services they’ll demand, might as well crash the system as soon as possible and get it over with so the rebuilding can commence. It seems to be the only way to affect change is through abject pain and negative reinforcement.

Grow up Whitey...
Nice Racism
Tell me about it...
Had to listen to this crap past weekend.
Had to inform my friends they are multi racial and Mexico is a country...
Feinswine native of SF but:
Pelosi from Baltimore
Boxer from Brooklyn
Willie Brown from TX
Mad Maxine Waters from St Louis
My mistake, maybe that Blum slime she is married to?
“Did a lot of good getting rid of Davis, didn’t it?”
Yeah, right! The idiots here elected Arnold the Awful. The only thing he was good at was impregnating his maid.
Thank you for pointing out that California has been Effed by the Eastern Sheistkopfs.

That’s what I have been hoping too. I am disappointed that the municipal bankruptcies haven’t come on in greater volume, at least not yet. A flood of municipal and county bankruptcies would have the RATs running around like a bunch of cats covering $hit. I want California to go completely bust, and I live here.
California? Oh yeah - I used to pay taxes there once. Never got much in return, so I took my tax dollars elsewhere.
Vette, my friend. Hope you are well.
Don’t know about Blum. My old trout fishing partner
died app 10 yes ago. He grew up in SF when it was
closer to normal. He dated Di Fi a couple of times
while in HS. Showed me a photo. She went to girls
Catholic school.
Yikes, that would be a story to tell at a NRA meeting. Talk about dodging a bullet, but then again, her insanity may have set in later because of some life experience.
“Vette, my friend. Hope you are well.”
I am very well thank you, but this State, and for that matter, this Country is in serious trouble. We need some RAT poison in November. Hope you are well as well.
We are one generation away from a formal declaration of some sort of union between the USA and Mexico, with free movement and the right to live/work here given to anyone with a Mexican or USA passport.
Our grandkids will visit sections of former border fencing that will be preserved in museums, like Berlin Wall sections - as "relics of racism."
“....at a NRA meeting.”
Ha-ha! So close to reality! This friend & I met as
co-members of a local sportsmen club....R&P, trap, archery.
All 200 of us are NRA! Bob was a Marine Korean War vet
and conservative to the core. I told him many times he
could have saved dear Diane from a meaningless liberal life!
“RAT poison”
I’m stealing that! Cheers!
