Our legislators are very hard at work

A headline in our E-R informed us that the State of California moves to outlaw “stealthing” which is, if you can believe this, removing a condom without permission during intercourse. And the law has been keeping busy our legislators in Sacramento for the last four years.

Initially the bill attempted to make it a crime but, in the end, has been reduce to misdemeanor, which give the victim the right to sue the perpetrator for damages, including punitive damage. The bill is on Gavin Newsom desk to be approved. Now my fellow Americans, if such an initiative does not blow your mind, I don’t know what would. We are sending our state representatives to Sacramento to work and help to solve the problems that citizens of our state are facing, and there are not only a few. Homelessness, housing shortage, unemployment, controlling of our forests to stop the devastating fires, managing the water shortage, exodus of people out of California, income inequality, drug and alcohol addictions, global warming. All of those are not so important, but how to use a condom during intercourse has kept our representatives in Sacramento busy for four years. It is revolting, it is appalling, and disgusting, and SAD, SAD, SAD.

P.S. I also found out the city council in San Francisco approved an ordinance that shoplifting is accepted up to $950. Boy, what a country we have!
