Taking the 'Boy' Out of Boy Scouting
The headline should read, "Boy Scouts Welcome Girls In New Gender Neutral Scouts." How hospitable. The announcement that the Boy Scouts of America will be dropping "Boy" from the name and admitting girls is sadly not surprising, but is extremely disappointing.
My son, now a toxically-masculine 29, was a Cub Scout, Webelo Scout, Life Scout, and third generation Eagle Scout. During his scouting years, we observed scouting changing with more moms getting involved, disallowing boys from being boys in many cases. In 2000, he changed boy scout troops shortly after graduating from Webelo Scout to Boy Scout in order to find a troop he felt met the true sense of "Boy" Scouting. He moved to Sacramento's Troop 1, the oldest, continuous Boy Scout Unit west of the Mississippi River, started in 1916. He enjoyed Troop 1 for many years until he achieved Eagle Scout and graduated high school.

Leftist feminist women are trying to dominate/destroy our youth through their envy and hatred of men. Their denial of their own power to unite, or the power to divide, is significant. Women have amazing power, but when used destructively, it is devastating.
Except for some allegations of actual rape and serious violent sexual assault, far too much of the behavior spelled out in the #MeToo movement is not criminal. The women who have climbed the career ladders using sex is not insignificant and cannot be downplayed in the #MeToo movement, regardless of how many of them signed "the letter."
The definition of insanity is to repeat the same mistake over and over again, while hoping for a different, better outcome. Such is the latest case of the predictable Left, turning once again to another failed sociological experiment--capping or regulating rents artificially, more commonly known as "Rent Control." Democrats in California are once again imposing 
California lawmakers are not only bulldozing classic liberal education, they are legislating more LGBT lifestyle and pornographic perversion in education curricula. At the same time, they are also trying to outlaw homeschooling, removing all doubt that the left is indoctrinating your kids, and using them as revolting sociological experiments.
After sitting silently on his hands for days, last week Gov. Jerry Brown finally agreed to allow the California National Guard to send 400 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, but would not allow guard members to stop illegal immigrants from entering the country illegally, in exchange for money from the Trump administration to beef up the state's guard. Gov. Brown defiantly declared his troops "will not be used to enforce federal immigration laws."
As with most of the fraudulent legacy media, Sacramento Bee columnist Marcos Bretón has portrayed Stephon Clark to be some sort of martyred saint after his recent shooting death by Sacramento police: He’s a “loving father of two,” and “killed in his grandmother’s backyard.” The Los Angeles Times said of Clark: “Beloved, troubled young life cut short in police shooting.”
We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.--~Mother Teresa
Today, American's mental health institutions have become county jails. Especially in California, following the 2011 prison realignment which resulted in moving "non-violent" prisoners from state prisons down to county jails and letting the "non-violent" out of jails. And Propositions 47 and 57 decriminalized theft, and many drug and sex crimes.
Sen. Richard Pan (D-Sacramento) is the author of the "Online False Information Act," a new bill that would require anyone who posts any news on the Internet to verify all information through "fact-checkers." Sen. Pan does not name who these "fact checkers" are, but I'm sure the State of California will create a new agency of state workers to oversee this.
Immediately following the November 2016 election, California Governor Jerry Brown appointed U.S. Rep. Xavier Becerra (D) to replace State Attorney General Kamala Harris, who won election to the U.S. Senate seat vacated by the retiring Sen. Barbara Boxer.
Many wonder why Becerra was Brown's choice given that Becerra served in Congress since 1993, and resided in a million dollar home in Washington, D.C. (
Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg lost control of the Sacramento City Council meeting Tuesday when Black Lives Matter activists turned the meeting into a riot. The council meeting was supposed to be an opportunity to address the recent police shooting of Stephon Clark, a 22-year old black male with a lengthy criminal record.

Who really cares that Sen. Toni Atkins became the first woman and first LGBT person to lead the California Senate on Wednesday? Shouldn't we be more interested in her character and ability to lead?
California politicians at all levels of government are helping fund a sort-of shadow government of dubious non-profit organizations, which are often tied to said politicians or family members.
Sacramento – United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions made a visit to Sacramento Wednesday to announce a lawsuit against California for its sanctuary state and cities policies of interference and lack of cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. “American Citizens Have Dreams Too,” Sessions said, paraphrasing President Donald Trump’s recent statement.

More than 600 student protestors from five Stockton high schools took to the streets for a "No More Violence" anti-gun rally Friday, which turned violent when the brainiacs attacked a cop, stole his baton, stomped on his midsection, and smashed several police cars. They also threw rocks through car windows of innocent passersby, and hundreds of the students ran through a nearby mall like a herd of cattle. At least five students were arrested for the violence, attacks, and damage to six police cars.

Sacramento Developer Paul Petrovich won his lawsuit against the City of Sacramento. The City's answer?... Appeal using taxpayer-funded lawyers.
On a drive throughout the City of Sacramento you'll see everything from beautiful high-end neighborhoods, to impoverished neighborhoods, and everything in between--all now mixed with great poverty, as well as the lawless homeless population.
