California Governor Signs Bill That Allows Citizens to Refuse to Help Cops In Distress [Details]

Undocumented, good. Police officers, bad.

California.

The land of fruits and nuts.

It’s a scientific fact. Don’t look it up.

Check out what Jerry Brown’s successor decided to do recently in order to make the lives of police officers even harder…

    Would more gun control laws reduce mass shootings in America? 

From Fox News:

    California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, on Tuesday signed a bill that no longer requires any “able-bodied person 18 years of age or older” in the state to help an officer who requests assistance during an arrest.

The results will be less policing in high-crime areas and many arrests in those areas being delayed until back-up - overwhelming force - arrives. In rural areas, where I think the old law was mainly applied, well, rural people would probably respond to requests for assistance as readily as before.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

As for the writer of that article, John Salvatore, he's as ignorant an ass as the police-haters he criticizes. He should know to criticize just the police-haters and the pols who suck up to them instead of broom-painting 10s of millions of Californians he knows nothing of, but obviously he is too stupid.

Who but outlaws and the deranged wish to live in a place like that?

The farmers who feed a lot of people in the US and the world.

The people who designed many of the sub-assemblies in the computer on which you typed that. And who designed the servers between you and TBR's server ... and who may have designed the storage farm drives on which TBR is stored.

The people who work for the many defense contractors here in California who supply equipment to soldiers, sailors, Marines, and USAF personnel.

For starters.

All of those are also made or grown elsewhere.

I have no problem with living in California, as I did for several years and enjoyed it.  Beautiful state and nice people where I lived.

What I am questioning is who would live under the terms the current government imposes on its citizens?

Don't get me wrong.  A state has the right to decide its own affairs and California can tax its citizens 100% of it wants to or release all its prisoners in its state prisons if it wishes.

There's nothing wrong with this.

Why would an ill-prepared citizen have to help in an arrest and open themselves up to be injured or held liable for something?

Let the trained professionals handle it. No reason to penalize someone who doesn't want to dive into the scrum.

If a well-regulated militia be the most natural defense of a free country, it ought certainly to be under the regulation and at the disposal of that body which is constituted the guardian of the national security.

Remember the story out of California about police not helping ICE? This just seems a bit similar.

No, on the surface, I certainly don't agree with this.

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

Next thing you know they will pass a bill to prevent students from being suspended in California schools.

Oh wait...they did.  It is just waiting for the Gov to sign it.
