Like many Californians outside of huge cities (and some within them who get outvoted), I am basically conservative. I'm appalled when people attempt to foist their bizzaire and weird ideas on the rest of us and outraged when liberal judges such as those in the 9th Circus Court ride rough-shod over the obvious "will of the majority". Issues like Proposition 209 are critical to the very survival of California. If the shoe were on the other foot, Mexican citizens would be equally resentful of US citizens applying for free tortillas, free health care, and petitioning for free tequila for Americans, esp "white" Americans. Most would laugh them right back across the border, if they didn't bind, hogtie, gag them and deliver them back across the border to California and other states! Yet sneakins, AKA illegal aliens, often appear to have more entitlement to social services than tax-paying American citizens. And things like Motor voter, non-ID proof of birth and citizenship Driver's Licenses play havoc with insurance and state highway driver codes and laws. Additionally, I do not recall Americans being allowed to vote in Mexico but Democrats generally favor that right for illegals in the USA for obviously corrupt reasons. Namely urserping POWER in politics!
