CHILLING: California Police Reform Bill May Ban Christians From Law Enforcement

A new California bill may exclude conservative Christians from police departments in the name of fighting

pjmedia.com

Basically, it isn't supposed to, but could end up applying because of loose wording

This seems like it's something good in theory (keeping out gang members and Klanners), but the wording and definitions need to be very fucking specific and limited, otherwise it will be abused to hell and back.

Really hope it doesn't make it through.

The article makes it seem like the bill is specifically going after it.

Hey same team!

The article makes it seem like the bill is specifically going after it.

As I said, the wording of the actual bill needs to be tightened up, very specifically defined, and there needs to be real discussion about who's definition of 'hate group' the bill operates on.

The intent of the bill, if the writers are being honest and genuine, is good, but is ripe for abuse in the current form.

I want to see it pass and then get bitch-slapped down in court.

Considering that California liberal elites hate Christianity, I'd say the loose wording is very much intentional.

its more correct to say they hate anything that limits their power or calls into question the wrapped morality they try to inflict on others but in principle you have a point.

More and more I think the Democrats would hate the Dune movie and book because of the underlying message. Always question your leaders.

Really? I thought it was "AI is the DEVIL! Do DRUGS! OVERCOME THE LIMITATIONS OF THE HUMAN MIND!" ;-p

Tariq Nasheed: "White supremacists try to say Syrians aren't white, but they are."

Well actually, Tariq...

Well, this ought to slow down the nominations a bit. I expect other Dems are either cheering, or hitting thier heads against the wall.

And yet still not peek social justice yet. I’m sure they can find more. How did people this inept gain power? Something to wonder about.

Idiocracy?

The blunt truth to the world's ills. Politely it's being misinformed or misguided to certain issues.

Two words: Chicago, Hawaii. Dems own Illinois because of the former.

Seems to me like this should be violating some kind of anti-discrimination law. Is this something actionable that Republicans can act on?

I think thats an insult Pravda at least understood that they were propaganda and thus at least attempted to be subtle.

Cancelled.
