California's A Mess, and It's Not My Fault, Part V

By Rich Kozlovich

As I've noted in,  Part I, Part II, Part III, Part IV, the theme, "so goes California so goes the nation", may not be true any longer, since California is now a sewer, and it stinks, I mean it really stinks, filthy with crime out of control, and it didn't just start yesterday.   This article by Milt Harris March 22, 2024 This Should Work, City Council Member Wants A “Department Of Homelessness”, saying:  

Just keep beating your head against that liberal wall because it feels good when you stop. I love it when the only way people in the government can think of to solve a problem is to add more government. Nothing solves a problem like spending more money and hamstringing the issue with increased bureaucracy and miles of red tape.

I love the picture, the city is burning to the ground and these nitwits are telling the nation this is what we're offering for the rest of America, isn't it nice? 

On July 28, 2021 Craig Bannister (the link no longer works) reported the Vice President of the Police Union, Joe Gamaldi,  stated, criminals were stealing everything that's not nailed down because we won't prosecute them.  He went on to say, "district attorneys publicly announced that they will no longer prosecute thefts of less than $950", and this was voted on and accepted by the people of California, via the lunatics they chose for their leaders.

• Spike In Shoplifting Blamed On California Prop 47’s Reduced Penalties Anything below $950 keeps the crime a misdemeanor — and likely means the thieves face no pursuit and no punishment, say retailers and law enforcement officials. Large retailers including Safeway, Target, Rite Aid and CVS pharmacies say shoplifting increased at least 15 percent, and in some cases, doubled since voters approved Proposition 47 and ended the possibility of charging shoplifting as a felony with the potential for a prison sentence.....

In Oakland's Chinatown they're demanding Gov. Newsom declare as state of emergency because they're living in a state of fear saying:

“Governor Newsom, we want you to declare a state of emergency for the city of Oakland. We want you to bring in the California Highway Patrol,” said Chan of a letter he sent to Newsom demanding action. “I’m not only asking you for Chinatown. I’m asking you to send the police, the CHP, to the city of Oakland; all areas. We need your help.”...........“The rash of shootings, carjacking, assaults and robberies hold the city of Oakland hostage,” said Chan. “Citizens are living in the continuous state of fear for our safety, well being, livelihoods and future.” Chan blamed the rise in violent crimes on the “defund the police” movement in part, but also noted that those committing the crimes were less concerned about consequences because the state’s justice system and unnamed district attorneys that he said are too lenient with repeat offenders........

If you thought Prop. 47 was insane, it gets even worse with passage of the 2020 California Racial Justice Act, which is can easily be called a "descent into racialist madness".  By claiming "systemic bias" every thug, murder, or thief, in California's prison system can "retroactively challenge his conviction and sentencing on the ground of systemic bias, and they can provide "experts" to testify to that, even "experts' who publicly state whites are all psychopaths. 

We know know the reason for this is America's prisons are full of blacks, and the reason they're full of blacks is because blacks commit more crimes than America's other races, per ratio, a lot more. 

In Los Angeles, blacks are 21 times as likely as whites to commit a violent crime, 36 times as likely to commit a robbery, and 57 times as likely to commit a homicide, according to police department data. Those data come from reports filed by victims and witnesses, who are themselves disproportionately black. Blacks over-offend to an appalling degree in other states, too. But liberals cling to the hoary myth that “disparities” in law enforcement can only be due to racial bias in criminal justice.

And now there's a massive crime wave throughout California, imagine that!  It boggles the mind any political party could be so stupid as to be in favor of more crime.  Yet that must be the case since they're passing laws that can only assure more crimes will be committed, and once this trend gets started, it metastasizes into more violent crimes.  

Will the nation follow?  Well, there's New York, Oregon, Washington, and every major city in America going in that direction, but I seriously doubt most states will follow California, and at some point these Democrat sewers, cities and states, will collapse and left to rot in their own corruption, and the rest of the nation will refuse to bail them out.  

The productive citizens are leaving, en masse, as taking their money with them, and they're not coming back.  It will be decades before some of these cities are revived. 

 Schadenfreude.  

• California to help 'undocumented immigrants' purchase homes? - March 9, 2024 By Eric Utter - California Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula has introduced Assembly Bill 1840, aimed at expanding home ownership opportunities for “undocumented immigrants” in the state.The bill would make illegal aliens eligible for first time homebuyer loans. The bill, as originally introduced earlier this year, was aimed at low- and middle-income citizens, but Arambula apparently decided that was too exclusive, and therefore recently proposed his updated version. This is yet another kick in the shorts to citizens, especially since the formerly Golden State has the highest priced housing — and by far the most homeless people — in the nation...........
