Five Radical, Woke California Laws Go Into Effect Today
« on: January 01, 2023, 02:05:18 PM »
For those who live in California willingly, how is it you can justify murdering the unborn at the hand of a nurse? Granted, there are just as many sick bastards that have a medical "license" as there are nurses, but if this isn't treating the unborn like dirt and then murdering them, I don't know what is.

A fast food "Politburo." Yep, sounds about right.  :whatever:

Oh, and a note to the author of this article, Sarah Arnold -- the State of California isn't "progressive". It's sick. Pure and simple. Any society that permits this nonsense isn't well.

It’s January 1, which means five more woke laws in California go into effect, making the state even more progressive than it was.

Looks like the Left’s woke ideology will be continuing in 2023.

The first law, which was signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif) in September, is SB 107, which makes California a “sanctuary state” for transgender kids.

It will protect the use of drugs or surgery to provide “gender-affirming care” to kids who travel to California from states that have restricted allowing minors to receive the life-alternating surgery.

Sen. Scott Weiner (D-Calif) said that the bill offers “refuge” to trans minors and their families “if they’re being criminalized in their home states.”

Abortion was on the top of many governors’ minds in 2022 with Republican states banning the procedure and Democrat states welcoming it with open arms.

SB 1375 will allow nurses to perform abortions without the help of a medical license doctor, which was passed alongside a referendum guaranteeing the right to abortion and contraception.

Under the new law, nurses will be able to perform the procedure without a doctor supervising in the first trimester of pregnancy.

The third law that goes into effect on the first, is a Covid misinformation law. Signed in September, the law will require medical licensing boards in the state of California to take disciplinary action against doctors who are involved with the “dissemination of misinformation or disinformation related to the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, or ‘COVID-19’.

Additionally, Newsom signed a law that decriminalizes jaywalking because of “racism.”

Titled “Freedom to Walk Act,” the law will prevent law enforcement from stopping people who are crossing the street not at a crosswalk unless they are in visible danger.

The law claims that jaywalking is a racist crime because it is so-called enforced unfairly in “communities of color” where people apparently cannot afford to pay the fines.

The fifth law, which is currently on hold by the courts, is state control of fast-food restaurants.

The law would create a ten-member politburo, aka the Fast Food Council, which would serve for ten years,” allowing them to set wages and working conditions for the fast food industry.

After a group of restaurants collected petition signatures against the law sued, the law has been put on hold.

Lest I be accused of picking on the State of California's voters for their collective stupidity, Illinois isn't far behind. In Pritzker's dim mind, if you can't fix the problem, change the rules:

Chicago saw nearly 600 homicides in 2022, five times higher than New York City and 2.5 times higher than Los Angeles.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D-Ill) have repeatedly pushed back on criticism that highlights their failed crime policies.

However, beginning January 1, they will no longer be able to escape the reality that a new law will bring to the state.

The state’s Safety, Accountability, Fairness, and Equity-Today (Safe-T) Act will pretty much end cashless bail.

It will also limit when defendants can be deemed flight risks and allow defendants under electronic monitoring to leave home for 48 hours before they can be charged with escape.

Meaning criminals can be walking around the state for two days before police officers are called to go looking for them.

The law will also drop trespassing from a Class A misdemeanor to a Class B misdemeanor. So officers will no longer be able to arrest non-violent trespassers and instead only issue them a citation.

Sounds safe for the people of Illinois.

A class-action lawsuit, which dozens of counties across the state signed, argued that the pre-trial release and bail reforms in the SAFE-T act are unconstitutional.

“Today’s ruling affirms that we are still a government of the people and that the Constitutional protections afforded to the citizens of Illinois – most importantly the right to exercise our voice with our vote – are inalienable," Kankakee County State Attorney Jim Rowe, one of the lead plaintiffs in the suit, said in a statement.

As the state appeals the decision, a higher court in Illinois eliminated cash bail, however, the rest of the bill remains in effect.

Orland Park Mayor Keith Pekau told Fox News that this is the most dangerous law he has ever seen.

It appears that the Illinois Supreme Court said NFW to this dumb-ass law -- at least until the "inconsistencies" can be sorted out.

On New Year’s Day, a dangerous but hilariously misnamed new law was set to take effect in Illinois. The “SAFE-T Act” was scheduled to alter the state’s handling of criminal prosecutions in ways that would make it much harder to prosecute and imprison criminals. One of the key facets of the bill would bring an end to cash bail in most cases, allowing even more suspects to be immediately put back out onto the streets after being detained. Prosecutors from across the state sued to prevent the rule from going into effect and last Wednesday a county judge found the law to be unconstitutional and barred it from taking effect in the counties where those prosecutors work. On Saturday, the state supreme court upheld that ruling and halted the law from taking effect across all of Illinois. An appeal will be filed in short order. (WGN TV)
