While I do not support this law, the article is misrepresenting it. It permits employers to fire workers who are stoned at work; it bars them from firing workers who smoke pot on their own time if they are legally using medical marijuana.
Since these people are repeatedly re-elected, even to the point of inflicting six more years of Babs Boxer on the rest of America, California deserves to meet a painful and swift end. It would be nice if the “good parts” could be sorted out and given a state or two of their own. Then the rest could join Mexico again.
I’m going to go into business selling gag motivational posters:
“You Don’t Have To Be Stoned To Work Here, But It Helps!”
Carol Mosely Braun is proposing for Chicago that private employers are not to be allowed to ask if a job applicant has been convicted of a felony.
It seems that a full 55% of adult black males in Chicago have been convicted of felonies and this question discriminates against them.
Take that Californians, we have barking moon bats too!
The California lawmaker is only trying to save his/her own job. < / sarc
Excerpt from the originalarticle:
“SACRAMENTO — A state lawmaker this week introduced a bill that would prohibit employers from firing qualified medical marijuana users who consume pot when they’re not on the job.
The bill, proposed by Democratic state Sen. Mark Leno, also would make it illegal for employers not to hire someone solely because they use marijuana for medical reasons.”
The article gets it just a little wrong.
I’m sorry, but the only thing that can save CA is letting loose the 1st Marine Div to kill all the fascists and communists in CA or take over the fed gov and send in a division of lawyers, investigators and armed agents to hang all the fascists, communists and marxists infesting CA.
I’m open to other solutions.
When I was little, they told me Ca would break off and fall into the ocean.
I always thought they meant an earthquake....
California is so screwed up now that it may never ever recover.
With Brown now as governor, that seems more likely with every single passing day.
How can anyone discern if any of the remaining residents of Cali are not high. They just reelected Moonbeam.
I thought that was the official State Song?
And Jeb Bush, Newt Gingrich, and Dick Morris are advocating the States like California should have the right to declare bankruptcy so they can stick it to the bond holders and tax payers while they protect the drugged out public union employees.
Jeb Bush, Newt Gingrich, and Dick Morris need to be taken behind the woodshed.
You think service is bad now....
