Then if the Gov. don`t use advertising to pay for the site, then things might go smooth and the idea can probably work well. But there`s always that extra money left over and the site is guaranteed to have 3/4 of the country viewing it.

It will kill them to not accept advertising offers. I hope they don`t.

I am excited for a few of these. If you're a CA resident, I encourage you to click the link from ballotpedia and read a bit about the bills and who is funding support/opposition for them

That`s not the kind of site we are talking about. We are talking about one that you will only have 72 hrs. or something to view new laws. We`ll see, maybe if......

Prop 57. Yeah, maybe. I need the details.
Prop 59 is useless, except as an explicit statement that you don't support the idea of free speech.
Prop 62. Yeah, I support that. Again, I need details though.
Prop 63. That is just what California needs, a few million more "felons" created with the stroke of a pen.
Prop 64. I wish it was a simpler amendment. Something along the lines of "it is legal to possess a pound, grow up to 12 plants." No tax on gardening. No tax on possession. No special permits or favors to political buddies. It is imperfect, but I will vote for it.

prop 63 is just more prohibitionism and unconstitutional, basically just the war on drugs with a different boogeyman to chase.

large capacity magazines have been banned in other states, challenged in courts, and found to be fully constitutional.

your problem is that you are just a dumb white supremacist who does not know what is constitutional and what is not.

for example, affirmative action, which you think is unconstitutional, is actually constitutional. denying service to people because of their race, which you think should be legal, is actually unconstitutional.

hey, remember that one time you joined a white supremacy group, then spent months lying to us all about the fact that you joined? that was hilarious.

must have been embarrassing for you, ya know, to be called out as such a lying piece of shit racist, but it was hilarious for the rest of us.

thanks for that.

the other day, i was trolling racists on facebook and finally saw the albatross of all facebook posters: the racist loser who actually had a job.

i know, i barely believed it either. most racists are completely unemployable losers like you, sucking up social security checks and socialized medicine, worthless to all of us. basically just a vacuum for the hard earned dollars of working taxpayers like myself.

anyhoo, i took a few screenshots of his racist comments and emailed them to the manager at the car dealership he worked for. asked if this is how thy wanted their company to be represented in social media.

well, long story short, poor ol' wayne m. doesn't have a job anymore. i checked today and he was no longer listed on the website as one of the sales and leasing associates.

i thought i was doing a public service to the company and the dozens of responsible employees they have, but a guy who identifies me as a (((jew))) thought i was snitching.

where do you fall on this scale of opinion?

desert dude said:

My opinion is, you're a loser who can't even plant a viable embryo in the uterus of the woman who supports you. As Trump would say: Very sad.

UncleBuck said:

are you forgetting that i make more money than you and live in a nicer house than you?

you can't even afford $800 a year to keep the most precious little gun nut event in your life going, and you are at retirement age. THAT is sad.

my wife's money makes more money than you do selling that shitty wood you are peddling. you are pathetic.

stick to impressing white supremacy groups with your tales of persecution, loser.
