#2 Fascists idiots have taken over Kalifornia. The dominant left wingnut populace is probably too stoned to notice or care.

#3 But by the time it is overturned, the damage will have been done and the fascists who wrote the law in the first place will skate.

Conspiracy to violate civil rights. It's not that they can't be held accountable, there is just no will to enforce it.

All according to plan, P2k.

#5 Try to stop us, fucktards. You will be shot if you come to arrest us.

Get it?

You. WILL. Be. Shot.

Dead.

#6 Fortunately, the bill died.

A landmark bill allowing for the prosecution of climate change dissent effectively died Thursday after the California Senate failed to take it up before the deadline.

Senate Bill 1161, or the California Climate Science Truth and Accountability Act of 2016, would have authorized prosecutors to sue fossil fuel companies, think tanks and others that have “deceived or misled the public on the risks of climate change.”

I think they wanted the anti-gun bills to pass first before they felt brave enough to pass this one.

Disarm, then devoice. Classic path to tyranny.

#7 The bill's sponsors knew it wouldn't pass. They were just grandstanding to enhance their street creds.

#8 Even though it failed, they'll try again and again.

Kind of like school referendums.

#9 It's still conspiracy even if it didn't pass. All the names on the sponsor listing are public record.

#10 It can fail a thousand times...

... it just has to pass once.

Maybe some of them should have a spot of bad luck come their way.
