I don't want Prop 86 to pass, do you?

Prop 86 in CA?  No.  It's totally wrong.

Like most others, I also believe that the walkout was more of a spectacle than a protest. I agree that seeing teenagers get involved is refreshing, but it is naive to think that they were outraged at this new bill. I am as outraged as any other Hispanic/Latino about what the holds for the future or all Hispanics and Latinos. I remember when Pete Wilson, back in 1994/1995 attempted to enact proposition 187. Similar protests from high school and middle school students occurred back then too. I witnessed one attempted walkout when I was in the eighth grade in a middle school in Hollywood. I know for a fact that those students were not propelled to walk out because of outrage from Prop 187, they walked out because the chose not to go to class.  Most students have been misinformed about the details of the bill and others don't care enough to find out what it is. There are better ways to do things and I believe school walk-outs are detrimental to the cause. The only thing it proves to the larger conservative and neo conservative society is that Hispanics and Latinos are bunch of ignorant and emotional juvenile delinquents.

It doesn't matter Nina. If the law passes, the same thing will happen there that happens in California. When the people pass a controversial law like that here, this is what happens. A judge will claim the new law is unconstitutional. Thus voiding all our votes and making the new law void. In other words. It'll never happen. That's why I quit voting.

No, it didn't even make it for a vote in the Senate. The House is supposedly going to try and pass it eventually, but without even a majoirty in the Senate there's no way it will ever pass. Even if it did, 3/4 of the states don't want it to pass.

I have lived in so cal all of my life. Sitting Pretty must be well insulated form the problem or just doesn't open her eyes. I used to live in Santa Ana Ca. I had my house broken into and robbed on 5 different occasions. The last time was in plain view of two of my neighbors as this illegal kicked out my front window to carry out my TV. Yes I know he was illegal because he left fingerprints.\nI had to keep the battery to my pick up in the garage to keep it from being stolen (learned that one the hard way too) This was well over 20 years ago before the first amnesty. I finally had to move. Last time I visited that neighborhood everyone had steel bars on their windows and doors.\nWhere I live now the illegals have taken over a city block. So bad is the problem the Police had to put in a sub-station just to try and keep a lid on things. Cops walk a beat in that neighborhood to try to foster good community relations so that at least some of the residents will report crimes to them. Gangs from LA have been seen there trying to recruit the young kids. I see them everywhere now..especially the moms with their little anchor babies. Katsulove is absolutely correct on the costs. Remember Cali tried to pass prop 187 in 1994 because of the huge drain on our economy.\nI know many Americans with hispanic last names and I count them as close personal friends. Actually I married one and you should hear her talk. They don't like what they see any better than I do.

DEFINITELY should tighten up the laws concerning child molesters -- these are monsters in every sense of the word -- and just letting them out with little restrictions on their behaviors is a recipe for DISASTER -- and the Disaster is the continuance of the Molesting Behaviors in the future.\n\nNot only should California Tighten up these laws, but I have another Suggestion for California:\n\nHOW ABOUT if CALIFORNIA tightens up it's Child Support Enforcement Laws too!  My Ex-Spouse ABUSED my children, and was not just able to continue contact with the children (which disgusts me to begin with -- stupid California "justice") -- but he then was also able to continue to slide off the face of Child Support Enforcement, and now ... 19 years later, I AM STILL looking for Child Support Enforcement!

Not to worry.  I think the levy will pass this time around!  It only failed by 12 votes in May.\n\n:)

Proposition 86 was defeated, as was Prop. 87

It's hard to fight once it passes. If it hasn't passed, you can vote against it and tell others to do the same.

I didn't mind Property I, which at my school dealt with creation versus finding property, and lost/misplaced items. Call me strange, but I even enjoyed future interests and the Rule Against Perpetuities. I just had a great professor that made it funny.\n\nWhat I couldn't wrap my head around was zoning, or nuisance laws. Fortunately, neither of those came up on the California bar last July, and I'm hoping (knock on wood) neither come up on the Oregon bar in February.

The scarlett letter license plates will not pass because there are those that hold high political offices or other esteemed jobs that have been caught for exactly that thing. Do you think that they want to drive around with a scarlett letter license plate? This is the only reason this bill has repeatedly been defeated. Now if it was just Joe Smoe who was getting busted for the DUI`s and not the senators, congressmen, etc, you bet it would pass.\n\nAs for Imani who answered before me, she`d better be glad she doesn`t live where I do, because that is exactly what one the judges in our county has people to do. I personally would think it is a deterrent and would think long and hard about doing something wrong if I had to do something like that. If you commit a crime you will be required to  pay society back one way or the other.

First, put down the blunt. Second, read the news for yourself. The date to vote for this is election day, Tuesday Nov 9. You will find out then if it was passed or not. Right now, it is still illegal.

The problem with 83 seems to be that it is too vague about "sex offenders".  It could create problems like one case I heard about where a 20 year old had sex with a 16 year old.  He was convicted of statutory rape.  They continued seeing each other and later got married.  They had children.  Now he is not allowed to be near his own children without supervision.  I know it's an odd case, but still, the proposition is too vague (doesn't specify sex-with-child offenders).  It could affect someone who had to take a leak on the side of the highway and got arrested for indecent exposure.  I'm all for harsh punishment of rapists and molesters, but I think I'd still vote "no" on this one and make them clean it up and re-submit.\n\nProp 90 looks like a good bill on the surface, but apparently has some clauses in it that could create a lot of problems.  It has to do with protecting property owners from imminent domain seizures by the government simply to put in a business that would be "better" for the community.  However, it also gives the property owner too many grounds on which to sue for lost property value.  It would be a lawsuit nightmare and the taxpayers would end up footing the bill.  I think I would vote "no" on that and try to get another bill written that really would protect the rights of property owners.\n\nDisclaimer: I don't live in California so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Lotsa people live in OC without papers. But, at current RE prices, I wouldn't want to buy there unless my income was high enough to not make it a big priority.
