The entire state seems to be populated by people who are either (1) cat ladies or (2) extremely ruthless predators.

Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, and other crime-infested cities should take note:

Stockton wants your murderous thugs so much, it will pay for them! You just provide the one-way plane tickets.

Does that include the police force?

In other words, the city is going to sponsor the gangs (kinda like a boys’ club) and ask them be nice and not shoot anybody.

Mr Mayor....I’m very likely to kill numerous people.But a payment of $5,000 a month would certainly cause me to adjust my attitude.

“Stockton wants your murderous thugs so much, it will pay for them!”

The mayor’s spending too much time at Starbucks.

They haven't actually gone on any shooting rampages yet because they didn't have the guns and ammo they needed.

But now, thanks to mushy headed Libtards, they will have taxpayer money for the guns, ammo and other gear they need to carry out their plans to kill taxpayers.

When people become this dumb, are they still considered human?

Is “blowing people up” worth more? Dearborn, MI could go Republican if Stockton is serious.

We have the widow of a former neighbor who ended up in Stockton after her PanAm pilot husband died at the wheel of an 18 wheeler hauling fertilizer after moving out there and buying a small farm and going bust in retirement. Stockton is a Mexican Gang Shit hole now. She is afraid to go out after dark there. And it’s a mystery to me how the city managed to exit Chapter 9 without touching their PE salaries, benes and retirement (even though a Federal Bankruptcy Judge told them they could do a lot of haircutting). I can tell you this, with guys like this running the place, they will be back in bankruptcy again, and soon. But then there are dozens of cities both here in CA and around the country that are going to go broke too, and it’s the cops and the FF’s who are at the bottom of the problem. If you have the means, you should take a look at PE salaries (here in CA they are a matter of public record). Our county FF’s are the highest-paid PE’s in the county with most of them earning at least $250k, and they retire at 50 with full pension, H/C, etc. It can’t go on forever!

I applaud them and fervently wish to see it implemented in Stockton. It’s a living laboratory that will prove the wisdom or folly of the idea. Like everyone else here, I think it will blow up in their faces like a loaded cigar, but the damage will be limited to the local area.

Much better than a majority of Congress critters implementing this foolishness nationwide.

It would suck to be a resident of Stockton, but hey, they elected these idiots in the first place.

I’m calling nepotism.

How much you want to bet that all of the politicians who cooked up this lunatic scheme have deadbeat relatives that they want to funnel some cash to?

Ah, the allure of appeasement. And the definition of insanity.

“Oh, did the big, bad Trump call you an animal? Here, let me kiss it and make it better,” the mayor did not go on to say ... but he sure must have been thinking it!

Protection money?

Ask the Mob about the best way to administer the program. Are “kneecappings” also covered?

Concrete overshoes?
