That's not true.

Some of our "progressive" politicians look at California and start shouting "ME TOO!!! ME TOO!!!".

This is why we have to saw California off and let it fall into the ocean.

If we hurry, we won't have to cut off all of California. We can still save the more conservative parts.
OC isn't ruined yet but is headed that way.

More like point and laugh. I believe those folks would have lasted about 20 minutes around here. Wouldn't take long to knock them down with bean-bags from a shotgun.

If you look at a fault map, it sort of breaks down like that.

See, God does hate liberals

Just keep in mind one thing: the majority of Californians are not bleeding heart liberals. The minority liberals just have way too much power and are more vocal.
See, they like to have parades and press conferences while the rest of us are busy at work earning money to pay for their "social programs".

Putting your homeless/unemployed in trees is an interesting approach.

They started cutting the trees down on Friday. They say that by Monday they will all be gone. Cal can finally have locker rooms and facilities for student athletes. Currently some sports teams have to change clothes in their cars. The whole situation is ridiculous as the sports center should have been finished by now.

I'm confused.
Why haven't they been arrested?

Honestly?

They are throwing excrement on the authorities.

Amazing!!

They seem no crazier than most of the folks from CA that post here...so I just figured that was normal behavior there.

I would have hooked up one of these. Set it to "MAX" and leave it on...forever.

Having attended that august institution, I know exactly what this guy is thinking: "The trees have been cut down, our good friends taken away by the man...after we shower and you shave, I'd like to set up camp in your oak grove."

It's all about situational awareness and getting laid. This guy is good. He even has a hard hat accessory and got her to hug him

This man bears watching.

I would have to qualify that with MOST of the people from CA. But other than that. just what I was thinking. Doesn't this stuff happen all the time in Berkley.

Sounds like dart gun training.
