PING!
McClintock Ping List.
Please freepmail me if you want on or off this list
New kinds of “reverse discrimination” but that sounds like a long court battle for someone with the Ninth Circus Court in the way at the federal level.
Jeeze, I missed the part of the Constitution about the right to not be offended.
“do anything that “reflects adversely” on people”
Where do these morons come from?
What McClintock shows is that Political Correctness twists real human beings into pretzels, so it is impossible to do anything. This law and its ramifications will be a huge blow to public eduation ...... and that is a good thing.
Recall Arnie! Elect Tom!!!
In a sane state, that tactic might, might work. In Crazyfornia, it will be stopped dead by liberal judges, and other fellow travelers who are most happy about shoving this down the “traditionalist’s” throats. The courts will win this the liberals way. Count on it.
The best solution is to remove the kids from the indoctrination centers, otherwise known as public schools.
brave new world of perfect harmony enforced by the power of the state

wow,, what does that remind anyone familiar with history of recent, say the last 100 years or so ;-?
Solution: two words, Home School
too bad L.A. doesn’t start doing what they’re doing in Chicago...
“from the halls of Montezumaaaaaaaaa to the shores of Tripoli.”
U.S.M.C. is going to show the NEA how to educate children.
If Tom McClintock was Governor of California today instead of Arnold, then California would definitely be in much better shape economically today!
McClintock makes a good point but history tells us conservatives will fail to take advatage of the most potent weapon in the left’s arsenal for the last 50 years...the courts.
>>There’s a great commotion among family and religious groups over the governor’s signing of SB 777 by Senator Sheila Kuehl. It is titled the “California Student Civil Rights Act” and purports to guard children from instruction or activities that “promote a discriminatory bias” on the basis of a long list of criteria including religion, gender, sexual orientation, nationality or ethnicity.<<
If we are gonna keep discussing this bill we have got to get better sources.
Like the article that said it banned the words mom and dad - but that isn’;t in the bill..
Now, I did a search and the word bias isn’t in the bill either.

If a high school elects a prom king and queen, this obviously doesn’t "reflect adversely" on homosexual students. But does it "promote a discriminatory bias" to celebrate a heterosexual stereotype at a school dance without also celebrating a gay couple, a lesbian couple and a transgender couple as well? It's entirely conceivable that a court will say that exclusion is certainly discriminatory.Particularly in CaliPornia. Thanks SB.
Just include “political ideology” as a “protected” category, and then have fun. Nobody is more discriminated against in public schools (at all levels) than conservatives. Give the schools a real dose of this, I think Tom McClintock is spot on. It’s their own medicine. See how they like it.
And gun owners.
McClintock on California's SB 777.
Add keywords homosexual agenda to flag FR articles to this ping list.
Excellent thought process by Tom! If this is done by our side, this new law will be overturned by the courts and the California liberal legislature will change the bill or kill it themselves.
