MOST PEOPLE ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE TONY BENNETT SONG “I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO.” THESE DAYS THE TITLE COULD BE CHANGED “I LOST MIND IN SAN FRANCISCO” AND BE MORE ACCURATE.
THE SAN FRANCSICO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS HELD AN OPEN MEETING TO ALLOW PEOPLE TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS ON WHETHER BLACK PEOPLE SHOULD RECEIVE REPARATIONS. THE IDEA IS TO GIVE EACH BLACK RESIDENT $5 MILLION IN A LUMP SUM, CASH PAYMENT. THERE WAS NO MENTION OF HOW THIS WOULD BE PAID FOR AND WHO WOULD BE DEFINED AS BLACK. IF LIBERALS CAN’T DEFINE A WOMAN, HOW CAN THEY BE EXPECTED TO DEFINE BLACK? THE PROPOSAL ALSO WOULD SELL HOMES WORTH MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR JUST $1. WHAT IF A WHITE PERSON CLAIMS TO BE BLACK AND DEMANDS THE GOODS? IF A MAN CAN CLAIM TO BE A WOMAN, WHY NOT?
PEOPLE LINED UP CLAIMING THEY DESERVED THE MONEY BECAUSE OF SLAVERY AND RACISM.
THIS IS THE PRODUCT OF OUR ENVY, GREED AND ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY. WHERE WILL IT EVER END? IF THE MONEY IS APPROVED, WILL IT GO TO DRUG ADDICTS? HOW ABOUT PEOPLE IN PRISON, OR OTHER CRIMINALS? WHAT IF THEY BLOW IT ON FAST CARS, DRUGS AND ILLEGAL ACTIVITY? WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE MONEY RUNS OUT? WILL THEY DEMAND MORE?
CALIFORNIA IS A MESS. IF THIS MEASURE PASSES, IT WILL BANKRUPT THE STATE, BUT IT WILL MAKE LIBERALS FEEL BETTER ABOUT THEMSELVES WHICH IS THE POINT. I’M CAL THOMAS.
