The police chiefs association has labled these issues from the begining but were out spent by Governor Brown 50 to 1. If the voters were not lied to this would have never passed. Consequences are a vital part of behavior modification. Without adequete consequences the behavior remains the same.

In reply to Rex the Wonder Dog!. Many, many law enforcement professionals have four year college degrees. More and more of them are working on graduate level educations, as opposed to your masters of medical marihuana degree...keep smokin.

Of course drug court was working— it was bloody tough for defendants—- a looooooong program with state prison as the stick and expungement as the carrot.

The ratio of drug felon defendants to drug court participators was about 1000 to one, or worse……addicts stay addicted without med intervention. And they commit crime.

The idea is a good one— but it requires funding—

Violent daylight home invasion has increased since the prisons have been thinned of “non violent” offenders.

Comrades,

This liberal thingee isn’t working concerning avarice, greed and coveting.

Sleep with both eyes open!

My late husband and I joined in 1995. We did not believe that there wouldn’t be any premium increases. That was laughable.
The big problem is that the Insurance Commissioner doesn’t
oversee this program. A lot has been mentioned about a class-
action suit. I believe that to be a bad Idea as the attorneys’ get the lions share of any settlement.. Recipients will not receive the
premiums they paid into the plan (pennies on the dollar), and they will no longer have Long Term Care, and will more than likely not be able to purchase another plan because of advanced age, and the price at their current age. If you can find an attorney to file litigation against the State of California for lack of oversight
that has caused this conundrum along with other parties also,
to be held liable fine. The fact that they are merely premium collectors pay out very little or no money at all when the policy needs to be activated is outrageous! In summation a class-action
suit is a very bad idea.

Make it legal to shoot someone on your own property that is there to rob you or worse.

Those are results no drug court can accomplish.

The crime has no consequences.

Addiction is bad but death is worse. Make the choice easier.

Prop 47 needs to be repealed as it is having devastating consequences. Drug court and its programs were working!
