If somebody is breaking the law you press charges on the individuals you think are doing that and go through the courts. It's amazing people like you complain about contempt for federal laws, and then for your remedy you advocate your own contempt for the rule of law. You're basically a dictator wanna-be.

And, I might add, filing a lawsuit against the federal government is not violating federal laws. The California assembly has every right to do so. Their lawsuit may be wrong, but they have that right to file it. It is up to the courts, not you nor any "feds," to determine whether that lawsuit has merit or not.

Your statement has proven that you, not the California assembly, have ZERO respect for the law.

Default This pretty much sums it up whats wrong with California



So in spite of computers, speedier access to materials, a more developed infrastructure and instantaneous communication. People in California in 1936 were able to design and build a longer span of bridge, at a much faster rate, at a fraction of the cost.

Only benefit we have now is the safety factor.

Yes, and hopefully a bridge that won't collapse and kill people in the next large earthquake.

Protect is to shield illegal alien criminals from deportation.

Sanctuary state bill, let alone all the sanctuary cities. Maybe you should look it up.

federal govt enforces its own laws. the states and local govt have their own to enforce. even Texas or Arizona don't enforce immigration laws.

One good shaker and Hillarys' popular vote slides in the Pacific and our republic is saved

With so many earthquakes, is California next?
