If CA left, the Fed money and most of the "makers" (i.e., midde/upper class and above) would leave the state and their precious socialist society would crumble, like it is now.

Damn. Here goes nothin'!

Interesting that CNN says the riots were about Milo:

But SFGate says they were about police racism:

California would never leave, because all the MIC employees would be jobless. California can't maintain 9 CVBGs, 1000s of F-35 Lead Sleds, all by itself. Or all those Space Tech Companies that receive heavy Federal and State subsidies and breaks. And then what would Lockheed do?

this is true. the remaining middle class would move out and the wheels would fall off. the state receives a large amount of federal welfare money, also.

actually, i'm enjoying the left ripping themselves to pieces these days. i say go ahead an secede, fail to pay out the plebes, descend into anarchy, and then have to be rescued. possibly the only way to get california back to normal.

Typical Berkley Bitch. Fuck Berkley and all the worthless asswipes who ever went there.

Calif does have the largest GDP in the US, no doubt they would have to make some changes. Bottom line is that less money comes back to Calif than goes to the fed.

Sounds like a good place to get pussy whipped! Just wear a gimp outfit with a big TRUMP sticker on it.

Where's General Fremont when we need him?

If CA left the union and fully implemented their Left political agenda, that GDP would fall to the floor.

Same ole Same ole in Bezerkeley. Same ole whackos, different flavor.

Of course, it could just be a brown shirt false flag.

Fuck the Wall! A 30 mile wide demilitarized zone, mined and laced with barbed wire, into Mexican territory, occupied by our noble troops.

Hail, Trumpligula, our savior!

Is Antifa another one of those protest groups so infiltrated by the FBI that they have trouble not bumping their heads together when they walk around?

Yup but that might take a while

Fascism. I thought I understood the term. It was a definition hanging on the forceful grabbing of power and control with an undercurrent of extreme intolerance. I wonder how this AntiFA group sees it, given they seemed to be the ones who showed up loaded for violence; how the lady who assumed you were a Nazi simply by looking at you feels about fascism.

Can fascism be on both sides of a conflict? Where is the moral high ground? It's in times like this that people grasp for heroes and unfortunately find them for all the wrong reasons.

Thanks for going and recording it. Thanks for making your simple point to the lady.

Good. It'll make the entertainment last longer.

Trumpligula is weak. It's been two weeks since the crowning and Hillary still walks free. Why does Trump hate America?

Brownshirts that derive their name from anti-fascism. Either history is being super ironic here, or their backers have a very morbid sense of humor.

just any guy says

No, this is why HRC won CA.

Yet another foxbot who doesn't understand the difference between voter registration and voting or what the word susceptible means.

I don't see the point in protesting Milo. It gives him way too much credit. There are plenty of productive things to protest. Milo seems like just a lightning rod for their angst against the alt right.

You better build my wall, or I might invade.

This number is likely to grow until Trump is impeached.

violent Berkeley protesters took a worthless no-name (Milo) and launched him into the national spotlight last night, tripling his expected earnings in 2017.

When will they get it?

bob2356 says

Violent protests are illegal and should have never been allowed to occur. That was the campuses fault for not having enough security and failing to set things up so they didn't get out of hand. People should not have been allowed in the area with clubs or anything that could be a weapon for a start.

I can't believe you actually get it. The protests against Milo...and Ben Shapiro and others are absolutely violent and seek to prevent the speaker from speaking and people from attending. Even when no weapons are present, crowd shouting and force are. And the worst is that these sort of activities are encouraged by the local politicians and administrators verbally, and by ordering police not to engage.

Certainly par for the course in Los Angeles where the imbecilic city council encouraged the phony Soros funded occupy movement to camp out for months at city hall and where police frequently do almost nothing to prevent protestors from committing violent acts of entering the freeways.

This is exactly why these violent protesters are not held responsible, not arrested, not charged with felonies, etc

Fucking White Male says

The cops are using the wrong guns imo.

It would have sent the cockroaches hiding

Berkeley is in the bay area not LA.

That "antifa" crowd is as FASCIST as it gets. As in these unwitting state zombies having no tolerance of someone who is against the state policies.

Fucking White Male says

failing to expel the students engaged in these violent protests.

Wrong. For failing to expel students engaging in violent acts at protests. From the videos I've watched the majority of the protesters were not violent and were rightfully engaging in their first amendment right to speak out against what they perceive as wrongs.

Fucking White Male says

The protests are nearly always turning violent against Milo...the minimum level lately being protestors blocking Milo or his audience from entering.

That's a security problem, not a right to protest problem.
