Freeper opinions on suggestion on Rush Limbaugh
comment from Rush Limbaugh Show | 7/4/2019 | LS

Posted on 07/04/2019 12:08:29 PM PDT by LS

Maybe I missed this and hadn't seen it discussed here at FR, but a caller to Rush said there was a movement in CA to convince Rs and conservatives NOT to answer the census in order to deliberately cause a massive undercount of CA's population, which he argued, would then result in congressional seats being taken away from CA. It would "hurt" Californians by reducing their representation, but since they are always D-dominated, it really wouldn't hurt them.

Thoughts and arguments on this? Anyone in CA: is this gaining traction?

If you don't fill it out they will call you or send someone to your house.

Not filling it out would raise suspicion.

A better way might be to fill it out but only fill it out as 1 resident if you have a wife and kids.

That way a non-response won't get flagged for a follow-up.

When it comes to the “shall not kill” part I suggest you reconsider your position. The left isn’t going to hold back.

For The last census, the census taker said she wouldn’t go to the house across the street because there was a snake in the driveway. Apparently, they’re not exactly stalwart here in Tennessee. If we’re fined for screwing with the census, how are census takers penalized for screwing with it?

The Census Bureau would not be fooled. Do not try this. The bureau determines how many people are in an area by the census form, and by other means. If forms are not returned, the bureau attempts to find out the information, and if necessary, adjusts the numbers to conform to observed reality.

Dumb idea.

“When it comes to the ‘shall not kill’ part I suggest you reconsider your position. The left isn’t going to hold back.”

The literal translation of that Commandment is “thou shalt not MURDER”. There are two separate words, “murder” and “kill”, and the translation is not exactly accurate here. Many times God ordered people to kill, e.g., in war. When it comes to war with the Rats to defend Christianity, etc., people need to do what is right.

Just answer “no” to the “are you a US citizen?” question.

(I posted this earlier today - same topic)

Rush mentioned something VERY INTERESTING yesterday, which is that conservatives should NOT fill out their census forms if they live in California (and other deep blue states).

The thinking goes like this: Less people counted in Blue States, less seats in Congress for Blue States, and by definition, that means more seats for Red States.

And don’t think that it would take millions of people to have that effect. It’s possible, and probably happens, that just a few thousand people make the difference between a state getting an extra seat or not getting that seat, at least in some states.

So you people in CA, NY, IL, and maybe some others - don’t bother with the Census.

During the Trump roundup Check the precinct list of registered voters where these people resided. If they’re on that list, Federal crime, charge them and those that enabled them to vote knowing they were illegalsis
Delay gives pervocrats time to clean up voter lists and remove illegals names from. Election fraud is what also should be looked at before kicking them out

I only answered half of the questions. No issues here.

They don’t want it to go to court, or they will be forced to reduce the questions to simply number of people.

I would say “yes” to not responding in a blue state.

All Republicans in Orange County need to answer the Census.

Orange County is gone.

They're going to double down on "ballot harvesting" in the OC in 2020.

According to United States Code, Title 13 (Census), Chapter 7 (Offenses and Penalties), SubChapter II, if you’re over 18 and refuse to answer all or part of the Census, you can be fined up to $100.

$100 well spent, IMO. I've blown more than that on things that gave me far less satisfaction.

In the most Populous State in the Union CA, both Legal and Illegal People, there is no Voter ID.

Absolutely none, zippo, nada. If someone walks in only speaking Spanish and tells them his name is John Smith he gets a Provisional Ballot.

If there is a John Smith listed on the Precinct Voter Roll who hasn’t shown up yet, he would get a regular Ballot. No questions asked.

A precinct worker asking for proof of identity would be in big trouble. They would be treated worse than a Waitress who hands you a Plastic Straw before you asked for one or if you called a Tranny by the wrong Pronoun.

I just moved to MS from CA. In order to get my Driver’s License which also enabled me to Register to Vote, I had to produce an Original SS Card (no photocopy allowed), an Original Birth Certificate (no photocopy allowed but a U.S. Passport would also work), my current CA Driver’s License and two Utility Bills showing my current Address.

The MS Drivers License qualifies as a Real ID. CA is still working on it I think.
