California voters to decide fate of controversial Prop 47

California voters in November will get the chance to decide whether to roll back a law that has been blamed for rampant theft.

Whoever came up with this law need to go to jail

[jodame]

I'm excited for Let's get back to voting and backup all that talk!

[FULLIMPCT]

They better not have bundled this with a new tax. Every year there is a new tax to help homeless people and it doesn’t work.Lets just force them to relocate into asylums or jail.

[robertonstott]

It took Californians 10 years to figure that out! Yikes

[gokuvegeta]

I can picture all the criminals rushing to the poll and try to vote this down. Who else would support this is beyond bat crazy!

[stridersmythe]

Read law carefully, at the end she mentions money being spent on helping people, we just spent 25 billion helping the same people with nothing to show for it. its a tax increase not a clean repeal.

I witnessed the crime and felt completely powerless. However, it looks like we can finally amend Prop 47. I will participate in the fall elections.

[daledoback]

Imagine being naive enough to have voted for this to begin with .

[davidwilfong]

Vote yes and get Gavin Newsom out he needs kicked to the curb

[backtoobasics]

Stop paying people to help the homeless

[onikuy]

i still remember voting NO for this dam prop back in 2014.

[oldschool]

Vote out prop 47, Newsom, Gascon and Bonta! 1:27

[FM-foxj]

Common sense people, you are getting destroyed.

[maximusthemerciful]

They’ll reword it and retitle it so you think you’re voting for something completely different and they get the outcome they want.

The homeless industrial complex, and the private security industrial complex is now a thing.... Including lobbies and govt contracts. As long as homelessness and security is a problem, billions will continue to be spent on these... Think about that for a second before you think this new bill will actually solve anything.

So no. This new bill will be made to not solve the problem. But instead make more gravy for the above mentioned gravy train.

[victorcarrera]

That's racist, LeBron James is gonna be furious.

[maplmage]

We will also have a chance to replace Gascon. Vote, vote, vote. And also, vote.

[yellowbird]

We are so slow to respond to anything. We debate everything to death in our legal system which takes forever. We need to fast track this stuff. Act now and debate later.

[Thadopeera]

Arnold Schwarzenegger was better than Gavin. Now what does that tell you? 😫

[MikePeeez]

They need our permission to do the right thing, they should make a prop for lower fuel tax since they are asking.
