In another pathetic attempt to make political correctness a higher priority than enforcing the law, the brain trust that have bankrupted California have now voted to boycott Arizona. I’ll get to the utter ridiculousness of it in a moment, but for now, here’s an excerpt from one of their Community Organizing background elected officials:
Los Angeles on Wednesday became the largest city yet to boycott Arizona over its tough new law targeting illegal immigration in a move that likely will affect some $8 million in contracts with the state.
The City Council voted 13-1 to bar Los Angeles from conducting business with Arizona unless the law is repealed. The vote followed an emotional council discussion during which many members noted that their ancestors were U.S. immigrants.
"Los Angeles is the second-largest city in this country. An immigrant city, an international city needs to have its voice heard," Councilman Ed Reyes said.
"We must say stop… this is a law that we think is wrong. It's going in the wrong direction," Councilwoman Janice Hahn said.
The proposal could affect investments and contracts worth as much as $52 million, including contracts for airport, harbor and trucking services, according to a report from the city's chief legislative analyst. That report recommends the council consider suspending travel, cutting contracts and refraining from making any new ones with Arizona-based companies.
OK, and now for the laughable parts. You have to wonder what diploma mill these ‘geniuses’ got their degrees from, because Constitutional law was certainly not in their curriculum. First of all, Mexifornia… I mean California cannot alter or manipulate airport, harbor and trucking services! It is against federal law to impede interstate commerce! And that’s according to Los Angeles’s chief legislative analyst! Someone should send these LA libiots a copy of the constitution so they can actually speak with some semblance of intelligence. Of course, it’s also against the law to be in this country illegally, and we all know where California stands in support of that!
Don’t these buffoons running California have more pressing issues like the fact their state is bankrupt from their liberal and “illegal” friendly policies? Good luck supplying your cops with TASERs from another company since good ol’ Scottsdale is the only place they're made! I guess they can fight off violent crime with hugs and unicorns.
Don’t piss off Arizona too much, Cali, we might just decide to turn off your water and electricity!
