California Gov. Gavin Newsom clarified this week that when he called criminals accused of stealing packages from cargo trains in the state "gangs of people" he wasn’t implying the thefts were gang-related.
This is not one-off," Newsom said in a news conference near Union Pacific Railroad tracks in Los Angeles on Thursday, according to the Washington Times. "This is organized theft. These are organized gangs of people that are coming out."
"Forgive me for saying ‘gangs,’ that’s not a pejorative," he clarified. "They’re organized groups of folks that move from site to site."

Maybe he should hand out pocket dictionaries to the media, instead of defending himself by giving definitions of the words he uses. Is he that much smarter that all the rest of California?

“Forgive me for saying ‘gangs,’
Apologizing to criminals is the principal platform of the Democrat Party.
