What are the odds that pedophiles will be a protected class in California by 2025? Let me put it this way, I wouldn’t bet against it.
But one thing at a time. Drug users are first in line. Behind Islamic terrorists, drag queens and just ahead of people who vandalize classical art while screaming that the planet is about to explode.
California employees will soon officially have protections from discrimination based on their use of cannabis or marijuana while off the clock and away from the workplace.
The new protections come from an amendment to California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (AB 2188) which was approved by Governor Gavin Newsom on Sept. 18, 2022, and goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2024. The bill makes it unlawful for an employer to not hire, penalize, or terminate a person based on their use of cannabis products outside of work.
Just in case you were worried that your bus driver or heart surgeon is wiping out his brain cells and impulse control on a regular basis. But we can’t leave it here, what about the cocaine and meth users? Drug civil rights must apply to everyone.
Within a decade we went from workforce drug testing to drugs being a protected employment category.
Then again the only things that aren’t protected employment categories in California are being a white man or a conservative.
In California, you can be fired for refusing to wear a BLM badge, but you can’t be fired for being high.
The political class protects itself. It’s not as if anyone in Sacramento state government isn’t high all the time.
From the Comments sections:
If one does not clearly understand that Newsom is a sleazy scumbag, you’re part of the problem.
Since MtnClimber was kind enough to post the whole article, I wasn't sure what to highlight, then I saw this comment. Perfect.

Which means that the drug users have a lot of mental issues too and have to be “protected” by politicians.
There’s an idea. Put all of CA on cargo ships and don’t let them dock.
I heard a report not too long ago where half-way houses for druggies - which were homes in residential areas, including near schools - were using the argument that drug and alcohol abusers are are disabled - as a reason they should not be shut down - and winning in court.
Neighbors told horrific stories of what these half-way houses were doing to their neighborhoods.
And also a magnet for the illegals from El Salvador, Guatemala, Venezuela, Honduras, China, etc.
At the same time, businesses will continue to migrate out of Kali to escape high taxes and overregulation, as will families who want to raise their children in a normal environment (whatever that means these days) and hope to someday afford a house.
Why don’t they just save the middle man and say everyone is protected except white Christians?
Like protected species?
