In 2015, several liberal (AKA Commie) cities and state governments banned city and state funded travel to Indiana over their Religious Freedom Restoration Act law. They pulled the same crap again in 2016, banning state and city funded travel to North Carolina over HB2.

I think it's time, in 2017, that we give them a taste of their own medicine by having red states and towns ban all state and city funded travel to San Francisco until they get rid of their sanctuary city policies!

Sure, convince your politicians that their junkets should go to scenic Indiana instead of San Francisco. That'll go over well.

State and city governments are free to make their own travel rules for their employees. It's always been like this.

You want the government to stop funding an economic engine that is the 6th largest GDP in the world if CA is a country?

Good luck.

You don't have to play the two wrongs make a right thing to punish them. Best thing to do is just ignore them and pretend they don't exist. Don't feed the trolls with more trolling.

Sure. I'm good with it.

I don't care at all whether Indianans attend conventions held in Seattle. In fact, something needs to cool off the economy here, might as well be fewer conventions.

But CA is not a country. If it had to spend it's own money for it's own national defense and other things the Feds pay for it would probably shrivel up and become nothing more than a 3rd world mini Mexico if it didn't tax itself into oblivion. CA already has the highest poverty rate in the country when COL is thrown in. Good luck with that.

Obviously, you don't know what communism is. I would go to the local library if I were you and pick up a political science book and read it before you post next time.
