"They ain't out here arresting people for (shoplifting) and everyone knows it in California."

SAN FRANCISCO – In a lighted garage on one of San Francisco's busiest streets, a young man in baggy trousers and messy brown hair pulled down his pants. He had been hiding two pairs of stolen jeans with the tags still on them. He handed them to another man waiting nearby, took some money, pulled up his pants and headed back into another store on Market Street — home to the city's high-end designers and big-chain retail shops.

The incident wasn't a one-off. These brazen acts of petty theft and shoplifting are a dangerous and all-too-common consequence of Proposition 47, a referendum passed five years ago that critics say effectively gives shoplifters and addicts the green light to commit crimes as long as the merchandise they steal or the drugs they take are less than $950 in value.

The decision to downgrade theft of property valued below the arbitrary figure from felony to misdemeanor, together with selective enforcement that focuses on more “serious” crimes, has resulted in thieves knowing they can brazenly shoplift and merchants knowing the police will not respond to their complaints, say critics.

SAN FRANCISCO HOMELESS STATS SOAR: CITY BLAMES BIG BUSINESS, RESIDENTS BLAME OFFICIALS 

Over in the City by the Bay's famous Tenderloin district, Cassie, a 21-year-old mother of two and a former heroin junkie, told Fox News that when times were tough, she too has stolen from stores.

"If my babies need diapers or formula, who is going to get that for me? No one. I have to do it," she said. "They ain't out here arresting people for (shoplifting) and everyone knows it."

Proposition 47 is seen by critics as one of California's biggest blunders. Supported by the state Democratic Party and championed by the American Civil Liberties Union, the referendum was passed by a wide margin in 2014. The idea behind it was to reduce certain non-violent felonies to misdemeanors in order to free up resources for cops and prosecutors to focus on violent offenders.



Editor Note 


This is exactly what the democrates want for all the United States.

1/4 of California is on fire because of enviromental waco's and government not cutting under brush for the last several years.

California is also letting shoplifters steal up to $950.00 anytime they want knowing they can get away with it.

This is what you will get in your local area in other states if you vote democratic in any election.

California is a NUT house. The inmates have taken over.

These inmates want to do the same thing in all 50 states. Nancy Pelosi and her fellow nut cases want it to happen asap along with every illegal alien they can push on you in every county in the US.

I live about 3,000 miles away from California and I am thankful I do.

The nut jobs are on their way. Pelosi wants them in your neighbourhood sooner than you think!

Senate prepared to reject a kangaroo democrate court

President Donald Trump Will Be Reelected in 2020 No Matter What Pelosi And The Democrates Do.

Senator Lindsey Graham has created a new reality for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Graham has written a powerful resolution which Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell joined in co-sponsoring. Together they have attracted 50 co-sponsors – which means with Vice President Pence supporting them they would win a vote to dismiss any phony impeachment from the House that failed to meet a key standard of fairness.

The resolution:

• “calls on the House of Representatives, prior to proceeding any further with its impeachment investigation into President Trump, to vote to initiate a formal impeachment inquiry;
• calls on the House of Representatives to provide President Trump, like every other American, with due process, to include the ability to confront his accusers, call witnesses on his behalf, and have a basic understanding of the accusations against him that would form any basis for impeachment; and
• calls on the House of Representatives to provide members of the minority with the ability to participate fully in all proceedings and have equal authority to issue subpoenas and other compulsory process.”

Faced with this new reality, Speaker Pelosi suddenly ended months of avoiding a vote on the impeachment process and announced today that the House would vote this week.

The real reason for the thursday Oct 31, 2019 is because:

Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler are hoping to achieve this by bringing in the House Judiciary Committee and the judicial enforcement authority they were just granted by Judge Howell.

They are also in a big rush to do this; hence the Thursday vote.  The rush is because the DOJ has filed a motion for stay, as they appeal the Judge Howell ruling.

As a practical matter, the House Democrats had no choice but to bring the impeachment process to a vote. They were faced with a Trump administration that refused to cooperate with a secret investigation which lacked rules and authorization by the full House.

They were also faced with a Senate that was prepared to reject a kangaroo court-style secret approach.

 

Don't be tricked by pelosi's "vote".  It is a resolution, to affirm her previous declaration of a House “inquiry”.  The resolution is currently being written by Lawfare.

Pelosi is not delivering a House “Resolution on Impeachment” for a vote, because if she did hold a vote on an impeachment resolution, the minority and the Executive branch would gain rights therein. 

Pelosi is careful to say “this is not an impeachment resolution”

There are NO plans to vote on a formal inquiry of impeachment.

Lawfare is hoping that through this Thursday vote scheme they will be able to twist the legal process into providing their House inquiry judicial enforcement authority, or punishment possible for the executive not complying with a House committee subpoena.

Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler are hoping to achieve this by bringing in the House Judiciary Committee and the judicial enforcement authority they were just granted by Judge Howell.

They are also in a big rush to do this; hence the Thursday vote.  The rush is because the DOJ has filed a motion for stay, as they appeal the Judge Howell ruling.

Remember, the Lawfare intent is to pierce the constitutional firewall that creates a distinct separation of powers; and the Legislative branch is trying to force documents from the Executive branch, overriding executive privilege.

This is a constitutional issue. This level of impeachment intent is why judicial enforcement authority (the full house authorization to grant weight to legal subpoena power) becomes much more important.

Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler and Lawfare are attempting to create “judicial enforcement authority” without having an actual and constitutional vote to authorize an official “impeachment investigation”.

That’s what this Thursday House resolution is all about.

The Thursday House resolution is intended to authorize and validate the pre-existing Pelosi “impeachment inquiry”, and then expand the authority within the rules to create the impression of a full House impeachment investigation; without actually having a House  “impeachment investigation vote”…. because that would open-up rights to the minority and rights to the executive.

Pelosi calls for house vote to affirm speaker impeachment inquiry that was never authorized 

Pelosi's resolution vote is not a formal vote on the impeachment process!

This will be on thursday Oct 31, 2019  haloween.

Will the wicked witch of the house wave her broomstick wand and continue the fake impeachment without any rules or while she mix something else in her wicked brew of impeachment objectives?


The House Democrats have a clear model of a fair, systematic bipartisan approach in the rules adopted by the Democrats in 1973 and by the Republicans in 1998. Former Democratic Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Peter Rodino of New Jersey developed a bipartisan set of rules in 1973 during the Nixon impeachment proceedings.

The house democrates will totally ignore a fair bipartisan approach by not holding a real impeachment process vote, not just a phoney house resolution.

Rodino’s rules allowed the White House Counsel to be present at all hearings – including those held in secret. They also allowed the Republican minority to offer subpoenas to bring in the witnesses they wanted in addition to the witnesses the Democrats wanted.

When we were faced with an impeachment process in 1998, we sent a congressman to interview then-retired Chairman Rodino, and we literally adopted all of his rules.

So, there is a bipartisan precedent for a fair, orderly approach to the impeachment process.

If Speaker Pelosi offers a resolution which includes these precedents – and if her resolution answers the 10 questions Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy has written posed to her – then it is possible the impeachment process will be back on a bipartisan track.

This is never going to happen of course.


If, however, Speaker Pelosi introduces a resolution to continue the secret kangaroo court-Star Chamber-partisan approach Representative Adam Schiff has adopted, then the vote will be meaningless.

This is what the wicked witch pelosi will do on haloween Oct 31, 2019. 

In fact they will try to increase the power of their fake kangaroo court investigation.

If the House Democrats fail to heed the warning of the Graham-McConnell Resolution, they will be setting up all their efforts to be dismissed out of hand by the senators who have called on them for real reforms in the current impeachment process.


Graham and McConnell have already had a big impact in just a few days. They are now poised to judge whether the Democrats’ proposed rules represent real fairness and real bipartisanship or are simply more of the same dishonest, secretive, one-sided baloney Schiff has served up so far.

It will be very interesting to see what kind of resolution Speaker Pelosi brings forward.

Don't be confused by what the wicked witch of the house pelosi is doing.

The democrates will just vote for a resolution to increase their fake kangaroo court inquiry.

IT IS NOT A VOTE TO START A REAL FORMAL IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY.

A REAL VOTE ON IMPEACHMENT IS NOT A RESOLUTION VOTE!!!!

I can understand why people will be confused by the witch of the house.

Resolution legal definition of resolution - Legal Dictionary

A spontaneous expression of opinion, a resolution is intended to be timely and to have a temporary effect. Typically resolutions are used when passage of a law is unnecessary or unfeasible. In many cases relevant laws already exist. The resolution merely asserts an opinion that lawmakers want to emphasize.

ITS JUST AN OPINION VOTE!





Editor Note:

Yes it will be very interesting to see what is in the witch's brew on oct 31, 2019 haloween.

Graham,  McConnell, 50 Senate co-sponsors and 10 questions Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy has written posed to her are arrayed for the witch's response on her favorite day
haloween.

President Trump and the Senate Republicans will throw water on Pelosi if her witch's brew is lacking the right  ingredients and you know what that will do to the wicked witch of the house!

Its trick or treat time for pelosi.

Gender reveal party blows up

An American family's gender reveal celebrations have ended in tragedy after an accidental "pipe bomb" exploded and killed a 56-year-old woman that was 45 feet away.

Iowa woman, in Rural Knoxville,   Pamela Kreimeyer died instantly after an explosion during the gender reveal announcement caused a piece of metal debris to hit her, De Moines Register reported.

Police arrived at the Knoxville home on Sunday (NZ time) to find her dead.

The woman's son used gunpowder and colorants in an iron tube mounted on a metal plate, they had created a pipe bomb. As soon as the device was lit, it exploded, shooting pieces of shrapnel in all directions.

In a statement send to De Moines Register, police said the Kreimeyer family had planned to make a fun announcement of the child's gender for social media, but instead inadvertently created a pipe bomb.

Sheriff Jason Sandholdt's office said members of the family had been experimenting with different types of explosive material.

Police said gunpowder and some coloured powder had been put inside a homemade stand which had a metal base. The idea was for that, once lit, the coloured power would blast out the top of the stand.

But instead the explosion sent shrapnel flying and Pamela Kreimeyer died after being struck in the head, De Moines Register reported.

Bad Idea 

Editor Note

It is true you can't fix stupid.

How can you make an "accidential" pipe bomb?

It would seem this was an accident but that is the wrong word to describe what happened.

The family had been experimenting with different types of explosive material.

In other words what they made was NO accident.

They were making home made explosives and experimenting making bomb material.

When you use gun powder mixed with whatever its going to explode.

They knew what they were making would explode.

Grandmaw in the corner 45 feet away was not safe.


I think a "gender reveal" party is stupid anyway.

Thank makes this even more stupid.

Environmentalists have turned California into a tinderbox

Liberals are blaming California's wildfires on "climate change."

Now, they believe it will go up in flames unless we do something immediately to stop "climate change." But climate change hasn't turned California into a tinderbox, the environmentalists have.

California power company PG&E is pulling the plug on its customers. PG&E has been deliberately cutting power to its customers in an effort to avoid wildfires. It isn't working. Massive wildfires erupted in areas where PG&E provides service.

PG&E's equipment couldn't start these huge wildfires without a bunch of dead brush fueling the flames.

As Chuck Devore writes in Forbes, "the outrageous cost to remove a few dead trees from private land is a consequence of California's Byzantine environmental regulatory patchwork."

It's not climate change that's responsible for these massive fires, "it's decades of environmental mismanagement that has created a tinderbox of unharvested timber, dead trees, and thick underbrush."

Devore writes, "forest management is so bad on public lands that a new report, ordered by the California legislature in 2010, shows that the portion of California's National Forests protected from timber harvesting is now a net contributor to atmospheric carbon dioxide due to fires and trees killed by insects and disease."

Global Warming 101       Dr Roy Spencer   Ph.D.     Carbon Dioxide Growth Rate

While you have probably seen graphs of the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration slowly increasing over time, the graph above shows the yearly growth RATE, as well as the estimated yearly rate of emissions by humanity. It shows a couple of interesting things.

First, the growth rate of atmospheric CO₂ is, on average, only about 50% of what mankind emits. This means that Mother Nature takes out about 50% of the ‘excess’ CO₂ that we pump into the atmosphere every year.

And it seem like it doesn’t matter how much MORE we put in each year…nature still takes out an average of 50% of that amount.

So if environmentalists really believed climate change was causing the fires, they would be calling for more timber harvesting to stop it.


How many people have to die before environmentalists wake up?

Gov. Gavin Newsom has attributed California's wildfires to the effects of "climate change." But in 2018, President Trump correctly identified the problem and threatened to cut off federal funds if California didn't change its self-harming policies.

Trump tweeted, "There is no reason for these massive, deadly and costly forest fires in California except that forest management is so poor. Billions of dollars are given each year, with so many lives lost, all because of gross mismanagement of the forests. Remedy now, or no more Fed payments!"



Editor Note:


Environmentalists  don't deal in facts but they do believe their own waco propaganda about man made global warming or climate change causing california's wildfire disaster.


What contributed to the severity of recent CA fires is the state’s decades long mismanagement of the woodlands. No burn-offs, overgrown fire breaks, no debrushing.

One problem increasing the size of the acreage burned is that california stopped logging the public forests. Stopped removing dead trees. Stopped putting in logging roads that acted as barriers and allowed better access into the forest and  stopped fires.

Fire has benefits in that it clears the brush on the forest floor which removes some of the fuel needed to let a fire grow.

Environmental waco's are responsible for no logging the public forests.

Environmental waco's are responsible for dead trees not being removed.

Environmental waco's are responsible for less logging roads that acted as barriers for fires and also allowed better access into the forests.

Environmental waco's are responsible for less burning of acreage to help curtail wild fires.

Environmental waco's are responsible for the deaths and destruction in california!
