The second-biggest county in California has now joined the growing revolt against Gov. Jerry Brown and his leftist statehouse cohorts who have declared California a "sanctuary state" and want the cities and counties to pay.
According to Reuters:
This is a big one. Up until now, mostly small cities in Orange County next door and its county have declared their objections to the three sanctuary laws that prohibit law enforcement action against foreigners living in the U.S. illegally. Jerry Brown in Washington yesterday belittled the leaders of this growing revolt as "lowlife politicians" instead of elected representatives representing the will of their voters. Now a big beast has climbed aboard.
Brown's insults come off as those of someone getting desperate.
According to the local ABC affiliate, it most certainly was the San Diego County leaders acting on pressure from their voters. A county official told ABC10 News that the move was enacted after a mass protest from 800 constituents, demanding that federal law be honored. A county leader described it this way:
Hundreds? Pouring in? Pouring? It makes sense, because illegals have flooded Southern California, bringing third-world skills and demanding first-world services, which is costly for counties. Counties are getting stuck with foreigners' medical bills, foreigners' jail costs, paying for foreigners' education, and other expenses, and there is no check or balance in it. Everything tilts to favor the interests of the illegals, who often bring crime, garbage, bills, protests, and ingratitude.
It also represents a trend: California has been ruled by a corrupt one-party state that runs itself in a way comparable only to Mexico in the 1970s. Now some cities and counties are reaching the end of their patience. More than a dozen cities have joined in this lawsuit for Jerry Brown to respect the laws of the land. It has the momentum of a wave now.
A measure to break up the state into three parts is now on the ballot, fueled by the anger many voters feel at Brown's tinpot dictator-style of rule, where they have no voice.
So much for the half-baked idea that California has no conservatives and everyone out here votes blue. In reality, the place has been manipulated politically to shut out all conservative voices, except in a few ignored pockets, such as county leadership positions, which are often Republican-controlled, as San Diego is. Orange County is, and even Los Angeles also has county leadership Republicans at least until Mike Antonovich retired. There's still a lot of Reagan country lurking in California. The San Diego County move shows that it remains real.
