"California Democrats allowed drug addicts and the insane to turn the
state's major cities into toilets leading to outbreaks of hepatitis and
typhus. They still haven't banned public defecation.
But a ban on plastic bottles is their priority.

August's bans were the latest outflow of a torrent of insane bans and bills
flooding Sacramento. In July, there was CROWN or Creating a Respectful and
Open Workplace for Natural hair which bans workplaces from asking employees
to come to work groomed. Asking nurses or cooks not to wear dreadlocks is
now illegal in California which will do wonders for the health and hygiene
of hospitals and restaurants.
Meanwhile a bill to ban flavored tobacco products ran into interference from
the Hookah Lobby. The Hookah Lobby, a previously unknown force in the
Sacramento mental institution where all of the state's legislative sessions
take place, managed to scuttle a ban on cherry and apple vaping products.
But a ban on rat poison succeeded. That's unfortunate because typhus, a
disease making a comeback in Los Angeles, is spread by rats. The outbreak
began when California Democrats decided that crazy people had a right to
live on the street. The filthy conditions helped spread typhus with rats as
the carriers.
After making it impossible to stop the homeless camps, Democrats made it
impossible to stop the rats.
Democrats cried racism when President Trump pointed out Baltimore's rat
problem. Now they've gone to great lengths to protect the homeless-flea-rat
typhus pipeline. Good thing the straws are banned."---- Daniel Greenfield
While California is drowning in filth and disease, its Democrat elites are
focused on the environment.
They caused a drought for the environment. They let fires happen for the
environment. Now they're going to cause a rat infestation and typhus
epidemic for the environment. It's the environmentalist way.
And, if you're an environmentalist, people dying of preventable diseases is
good for the environment,
California's statewide bans include the usual effort to ban circuses, fur,
sodas, makeup and bots. Locally, the San Francisco airport, which offers
dedicated yoga rooms, banned bottled water. Some California cities are
banning natural gas in new buildings. California's civil war with socially
conservative states, where travel by Cali government employees is banned,
continues to escalate. The latest boycott strategy is to give tax breaks

states for pro-abortion California.
The Share Our Values tax credit bill will offer tax credits on up to $100
million for movies and miniseries that leave a state that restricts "across
to abortion". What shared values does the state of bans have?

SAVE CALIFORNIA, BAN ENVIRONMENTALISTS
Hold the straws, legalize the rats.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an
investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic
terrorism.
The 6-foot-tall man dressed as a giant receipt stood on a stool next to the
emblem of the State Capitol in Sacramento. He was there because Assemblyman
Phil Ting of San Fran wanted to ban receipts.
California had a great ban streak going. It had already banned plastic bags,
straws and dog breeders. Assemblyman Ting, who had only been known for
wearing bow ties, had declared war on receipts.
And Ting had his aide wear a giant receipt to show how bad receipts were for
the environment. And how better to crusade for the environment than by
printing up a receipt 100,000 times normal size?
According to Ting's people, receipts not only wasted trees and water, but
were actually toxic. The San Francisco Democrat explained that receipts were
coated in chemicals that weren't allowed in baby bottles. It's probably a
good thing then that receipts don't go inside baby bottles. Or inside
babies.
There was even a hashtag, #SkiptheSlip.
In an extraordinary setback for stupid bans, Ting's receipt ban bill never
made it to the floor. But Ting tweeted that he was "glad to have raised
awareness about the health & environmental harm receipts can cause. Change
often takes time." Next time around, the receipt bill ban will succeed.
Perhaps Ting ought to consider raising awareness about the 16,000 complaints
of filth and waste in his own city. The human waste spread by his
constituents is a lot more toxic than paper receipts.
The same Democrats who shrug at a hepatitis outbreak gasp at the toxicity of
store receipts.
But Ting didn't put all his bans in one basket. That same month, he also
called for a ban on facial recognition body cameras for police. The fact
that no police forces
<https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/13/tech/facial-recognition-body-cameras-bill-ca
lifornia-trnd/index.html
>  in California use facial recognition body cameras
didn't stop Ting and his partners at the ACLU from trying to ban them
anyway.
Meanwhile, yet another bill set out to ban
<https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=20192
0200AB1162
>  plastic shampoo bottles in hotel rooms. There would be
inspections and a $2,000 fine for giving "a small plastic bottle containing
a personal care product."
"Small plastic bottles that are less than 12-ounces represent a sizeable
amount of waste," Assemblyman Ash Kalra of San Jose declared. The irony was
lost on him. Irony will probably be banned next year.
California Democrats allowed drug addicts and the insane to turn the state's
major cities into toilets leading to outbreaks of hepatitis and typhus. They
still haven't banned public defecation.
But a ban on plastic bottles is their priority.
Assemblyman Karla might have paid more attention to the shigella outbreak in
San Jose. Shigella outbreaks are spread through human waste. Not through
shampoo bottles. The shigella outbreak in San Jose infected 182 people. The
only thing that can worsen disease outbreaks spread by human waste is
banning single-use plastic in restaurants and fast food places. So that's
what the Democrats are doing.
But banning individual plastic things, like bags, straws and little bottles,
isn't a radical enough solution.
"Rather than continue to tinker around the edges with one-off bans of
individual plastic items, we need a thoughtful, comprehensive solution,"
Senator Ben Allen warned. The solution thoughtfully declares that all
single-use plastic is pollution and must be banned or everyone will die of
plastic poisoning.
Nobody in Santa Monica, Allen's home turf, has actually died of plastic
poisoning. Instead, its homeless population is dying of drugs and alcohol

Escobar is an illegal alien

California from Texas. In the sanctuary state, the illegal alien criminal
found a fresh hunting ground stocked with vulnerable victims.
Single-use plastics don't kill. Filling your cities with the mentally ill
and illegal aliens does. The thoughtful solution would be to criminalize
crime, instead of decriminalizing it, while criminalizing everything else.
August's bans were the latest outflow of a torrent of insane bans and bills
flooding Sacramento. In July, there was CROWN or Creating a Respectful and
Open Workplace for Natural hair which bans workplaces from asking employees
to come to work groomed. Asking nurses or cooks not to wear dreadlocks is

typhus pipeline. Good thing the straws are banned.
San Francisco has a huge rat problem.
"We get complaints for rats all over the city," Nader Shatara, a top
Department of Public Health guy, said. "Rats are part of the fauna in the
city."
The ban on some rodenticides will ensure that rats remains a part of the
fauna of all of California.
The most effective rat poisons were banned because they also kill the
mountain lions who eat the rats. Better to have a typhus outbreak in Los
Angeles than to kill a few lions in the Santa Monica mountains.
While California is drowning in filth and disease, its Democrat elites are
focused on the environment.
They caused a drought for the environment. They let fires happen for the
environment. Now they're going to cause a rat infestation and typhus
epidemic for the environment. It's the environmentalist way.
