Yep! My wife grew up in Thousand Oaks (Ventura Co). ALL of her aunts and uncles have fled to UT, NV, WY, ID, and CO. Only ones left are the couple of commie cousins.
Don’t forget - this was at the BEHEST of a federal judge -
Judge’s order strives to reduce the number of fires caused by PG&E

“PG&E may not take into account the inconvenience to customers or its revenues and profits” over safety, says federal judge

On Wednesday, a federal judge in charge of Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s (PG&E) ongoing criminal probation laid out a series of new regulations on the utility that are “intended to reduce to zero the number of wildfires caused by PG&E in the 2019 wildfire season.”
In the most sweeping of the proposed changes to the terms of PG&E’s probation, Judge William Alsup says that the company must shut off power to parts of its grid whenever there is sufficient risk of a fire hazard:
quote -———————
At all times during the 2019 Wildfire Season (and thereafter), PG&E may supply electricity only through those parts of its electrical grid it has determined to be safe under the wind conditions then prevailing. Conversely, PG&E must de-energize any part of its grid not yet rated as safe by PG&E for the wind conditions then prevailing until those conditions have subsided. [...]
PG&E may not take into account the need for reliability of service, the inconvenience to customers resulting from interruption in service, or its impact upon PG&E’s revenues and profits.
unquote -———————
This could mean extended blackouts for PG&E customers. But as Alsup points out, that’s a minor concern compared to the results of the state’s 2017 and 2018 wildfire records.

Welcome to the new North Korea!
They should just shut down all power to the state for the months that fire is a hazard. The residents can use batteries and go green.
As a friend often mentions, what did liberals use before candles for lighting...…….electricity.....
This is ridiculous! There are already fires everywhere. Shutting off the power was supposedly to prevent fires in high winds. This is payback for the lawsuit loss under the guise of ‘prevention’. Tell me, what are they preventing at this point?
The obvious solution to this problem is to raise taxes, and create a new state agency to run the power companies...
Kamala of Kalifornia is silent on this.
If this keeps up, horses and candles will be a hot commodity in cali.
Looks good on them ,they should wear it more often ,LOL
That fine is looking like a bad idea.
Aren’t practically all of the forest fires started by things other than power line sparking? If that’s the case then why not just leave the power on all the time.
Buck up, Californians... the beatings will continue until moral improves!
No power to charge your PC car? And the fire’s getting closer... or you just have to go to your job and the ‘electric’ car won’t move? LOL
Without electricity how will ILLEGALS watch Telemundo?
Anyone seen Klatu and Gort in CA?
Gubamint by Collective..
I don’t remember voting for that.. and I’ve been voting here for close to 40 years.
Burn Baby Burn!!!
Wasn’t that an old ‘Underground’ chant?
Now it’s a leftist political directive.
They are the stupidest bunch of moonbats ever assembled. Too stupid to see that they routinely vote for their own doom.
I had a liberal tell me once that if they had their way, the rest of us would be living in caves and they would allow us to have candles if we were good. How prescient.
