Senator Says "California Represents the Future" [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 11 Mar 2018 | John Semmens

Posted on 03/09/2018 7:14:25 PM PST by John Semmens

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif) vehemently denounced US Attorney General Jeff Sessions' efforts to enforce federal immigration laws, calling them "a grievous and doomed attempt to thwart history. California represents the future toward which America is inexorably marching."

"As Gov. Brown so eloquently pointed out, the so-called evils that Sessions claims to be trying to prevent are part of a worldwide evolution toward the more natural way of life being experienced outside of the United States.," Harris maintained. "The notion that Americans can live above the standards that exist in other parts of the world is both selfish and unsustainable. Owning a home with indoor plumbing, heating, and electricity is a luxury that can only be allowed for a small elite. The sooner we reconcile ourselves to this reality, the sooner we will stem the necessity of people migrating here in hopes of a better life."

Harris admitted that "the average American may be ill-suited to adapt to this emerging return to a more natural state of existence. Our saving grace, though, is that under our state's open-borders agenda the vast majority of those entering the country from Latin America and the Middle East are ideally suited to this life style. So, there is a replacement population that is flowing into the country of its own free will. And I am proud to stand with visionaries like Gov. Brown and Mayor Schaaf who are working diligently to accelerate this transformation."

Part of Schaaf's diligent work included warning illegals in her city of the recent ICE raid. This enabled an estimated 800 to escape apprehension. Of the 232 caught by ICE, 115 (~50%) had prior felony convictions for serious offenses, such as child sex crimes, weapons charges and assault, or had past convictions for significant or multiple misdemeanors. "While the 50% proportion of common criminals among the immigrants rounded up by ICE seems high, let's not forget that we force these people into the criminal classes by making them sneak into the country," Schaaf reminded. "If we welcomed them in and gave them apartments, food stamps and other amenities unavailable in their home countries they would have less reason to prey upon our citizens. So, I blame Trump, Sessions, and the other racists who would deny these people their human right to live wherever they choose."

Nailed it indeed, John. What you have her saying here is what they actually are thinking - she and our nutjob governor and our smirking scumbag attorney general.

That’s John Semmens style. He makes up quotes that plainly say how these Bozos think and act.

Well, Kamala....you didn’t build that.
Who are you to give it away?

"Ideally, only the government should have guns," Malloy contended. "The next best option would be for the government to extend the privilege to select individuals or groups whose loyalty to the government is without question. These loyal citizens would constitute the 'well-regulated militia' that government officials could call upon to put down rebellions against its authority—as the writers of the Second Amendment originally intended."

Scary, and let's just say that the semi-satire is closer to the truth than semi-truth. (Otherwise, it wouldn't be worthy satire, eh?)

Another fine column, John!

Indeed, they know the rest of the state may slowly devolve into 3rd world living conditions, but they will always have their gated and walled enclaves.

Heck, is not Mexico city like that now?

Obama actually said something like this, but it was a while ago so I will have to paraphrase ‘we can’t keep living like we do and the rest of the world just says “ok” ‘. Yes, he really did.......

May 2008, Obama campaign event in Oregon: ““We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen.”

I was just starting to forget how much I detest, abhor, and hate that man. Thanks for reminding me!

Yes, I’m well aware of John Semmens’ style and have been enjoying it for years. It brings home the absurdity of the left and how close their positions are to complete insanity. It’s sad that there are a few FReepers who for some weird reasons keep lobbying to have him banned from posting.

If you go to Palo Alto you see that already and in very sharp contrast. Along a section of University Avenue there are huge older mansions on large gated lots occupied mostly by left-wing tech execs. On Bayshore Road paralleling the 101 freeway just blocks away there are overcrowded apartment buildings where the help lives, in some cases two or maybe more families in each small apartment. It feels like the 3rd world a half mile from the 1st world and it's not talked about.

Oddly, the same people who want John's SEMI-SATIRE threads banned are the one's who mistook John's SATIRE pieces for news articles because they couldn't see the word SATIRE in capital letters all over the beginning of every one of his threads.
