Global Warming anyone?

(I blame govt. schools, natch). Oops. Wrong post, but it ledes to this one: Why are pink activists so expensive?…

We can only hope that it happens soon. Personally, I am tired of these left wing loons moving down to the Raleigh area, looking down their noses at us who enjoy quaint Southern living, you know, being polite to each other, taking care of our own, saying hello when you pass someone in the street.

Isn’t North Carolina the easiest state for an illegal alien to get a drivers license?

$210,000 is roughly $2 per Berley resident. Too small a sum for them to notice.

Municipal budgets don’t work that way, dm. That money comes from the police operating budget, which is part and parcel of the city budget. Unless Berkley is socialist to the core, they have stay within their projected revenues.

So if the police are using up their budget, the city council gets to find extra dollars from somewhere, or they reprogram their budget accordingly.

Since the current council is a collection of ardent moon bats, they probably will look for outside support, although I can’t see many avenues (depends on California law, of which I am clueless).

Their other option is to pass some sort of assessment to cover the extra costs (call it the “Code Pink Protection Tax”). And that assessment will have to include estimated future costs as well; the year is still young, and there are more protests, to be sure. $210K is only the start.

I can’t say much about the legality of such assessments in the People’s Republic of California, but people will notice it. Especially if the city is losing outside business at the same time. Businesses tend to be very sensitive to these trends.

Of course, the city could just refuse to provide police protection. But I doubt that won’t fly, as the downtown area would be chaotic…..and that isn’t good for business as well.

All in all, it’s a minor wound….but I bet it bugs the heck out of the Berkley officials, professional and elected. And it sends a clear message to them.

You can protest all you want. However, if you can’t do so within the rules and get arrested, then your fine should reflect the cost of the police required to haul your silly *ss away and the court to try you (if the judge finds you guilty, of course).

Maybe we could get a little peaceful discourse in this country instead of the vile and violent tendencies that many extremists embrace.

I, for one, would love to have serious consequences for serious actions.

Indeed. That’s why people from California experience alot of disdain when they move anywhere else (except maybe Seattle or Portland). Liberals leaving California take their ridiculous notions with them, spreading entitlement blight wherever they go (or at least TRYING to do so).

For the record, I’m a Californian myself. I just wish there was a chance all the libs would move away to other states. Then they could be your problem, and we could fix this state

What I can’t understand is if your state sucks to the point you decide to move, why try to turn the place you moved to into the sucky place you just move FROM?

I got one word for you: Mexifornia! ‘Nuff said.
