National Sheriffs’ Association: ‘They Just Outlawed Crime Fighting in California’
CNS News ^ | 10/11/17 | Craig Bannister

“Someone is about to be harmed” because California lawmakers have put the values of “thugs, rapists, murderers and serial criminals” ahead of citizens, the National Sheriffs Association (NSA) warns.

As CNSNews.com reported on Monday, the 20,000-member sheriffs’ association has condemned the state’s new “sanctuary state” law (The California Values Act) for being both “dangerous” and “reckless.” Appearing on the Fox News Channel Wednesday, NSA Executive Director Jonathan Thompson warned that ironically-named Values Act actually prohibits law enforcement professionals from fighting crime:

“This is reckless. The irony of all this is they just outlawed crime fighting in California.

“And, they did it with something called the ‘Values Act.’ And, that’s what’s really troubling to most of us – because the values that the legislature and the governor are honoring are those of thugs, rapists, murderers and serial criminals.

“And, this is what’s really dangerous.”

Thompson blamed “Obama holdovers” in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for thwarting President Donald Trump’s efforts to protect Americans:

“It’s a slippery slope, and that’s the problem. And, we have to do something. We have to have Congress do something. And, you know, DHS here in Washington has been part of the ‘swamp’ problem. Obama holdovers are dragging their feet and they will not move this.

“The president has spoken to us about it. He’s eager to get this done. Thank God, the Justice Department is moving with all speed. But, we still need solutions. And, we’ve offered solutions - twice we’ve offered solutions to DHS, but, here we sit.”

Californians will continue to be hurt by illegal alien criminals because Governor Jerry Brown (D-Calif.) is more concerned with politics than with the safety of his citizens, Thompson warned:

“In California, someone is about to be harmed – and, it’s preventable; that’s the crazy part of this whole thing.”

“This is nothing but a political stunt; he’s playing to a political audience for something other than his citizens.”

So the open question is if they won’t issue you a CCW will you carry anyway?

I can’t think of one good reason to make it worth my while to ever move to California.

I also heard on the radio today that Brown has signed legislation to end the requirement of passing an exit exam to graduate from high school. There will be “other methods” to evaluate competency. 40,000 students who couldn’t pass the relatively easy test, even after trying for two years, will be awarded their degrees.

I’m sure Brown hopes they will vote Democratic, but I somehow doubt they will find their way to the polls. I guess if their names are on the list, they will “vote” somehow anyway.

CA also made it legal to use diseases as lethal weapons with impunity.

in orde to understand what is going on, you only have to know two things about California, total support for illegals even when citizens are killed by them after being released by jail. The other is extreme ecology. The governor is a religious zealot and thinks he is saving us from an environmental apocalypse.

If californicate succeeds from the union will the rest of us be considered illegal aliens if we visit? Will that enable us to commit crimes and not be punished? Will we be rewarded a welfare check as we cross the border?

Curious minds want to know.

I have since about 1980. Applied for one because I closed the bar I worked at at 2:00 in the morning with the bank drop. Was followed a few times. They flat turned me down. Never applied again but when I travel alone you bet I do. I’d rather be in jail than dead.

I can tell you that you are not alone. There is an old saying about “better to be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6!”

“The governor is a religious zealot and thinks he is saving us from an environmental apocalypse.”

Jerry Brown flunked out trying to be a Jesuit Priest. The Brothers said he was too lazy to be a priest, so he gravitated to knocking boots with Linda Ronstadt and being governor for life.

That's funny, another enviro-zealot, Algore, flunked out of divinity school.
