This has nothing to do with guns or dicks. It's about control, the control of information that everyone already has. It's useless regulation that will end up costing billions of dollars.

You must not be friends with George Takei.

Well he gets my vote, he is My Faviorite Martian.

I really don't have a problem with my water bill. I know how much it costs the city and they make no money on the water. Several small towns here go together and split the costs of the building the lake and matainance and now the wells. It's not cheap, but the costs are mostly local, we did get a grant that the towns had to match for the wells due to the extended drought. In the next 5 years I expect the water cost to increase by at least 50% and our sewer plant is about to need updating and the costs are expected to be 2 to 4 million to bring it up to date. For a town of 800 people that's gonna hurt!

Late reply......

OK, I looked it up....
Ventura Calif.
Water for single family housing 15,000 gals 75.65
Waste water 62.45
total 138.10 bi monthly

West Texas near Lubbock
My water bill 3000 gals PER MONTH
Water 65.86
Sewer 34.00
Total 99.86
Bi Monthly 199.72

I've said it before suck it up Calif. Until you pay at least what I pay for water you get no sympathy from me.

How does that saying go????

If your not a liberal at 21 you have no heart, If your not a conservative by 40 you have no brain.

Or something there about.

Clearly none of the "Engineers" had a ham license.

I want that, mine was $141 last month. We had an increase this year by $5 a month because the lake is dry and they had to drill a bunch of water wells. A local private water coop regularly charges $200 a month. Suck it up Calif. If we can afford it in west Texas, you can in calif.
   

This is why we now encourage our governers to run for president of the US. It gets them out of the state for a while.

The place I worked as a guard had this happen. We held inmates from a bunch of counties in several states. One of the PDs fax machine broke and they would go across the street to Kinkos and fax release orders on their letterhead. After a while they would just use paper without the letterhead. An inmates wife simply faxed an improvised release form and we sent her husband home. He got cought when he arrived because the PD had no release on file. Everything changed after that, a phone call was required with proper ID.

+1 funny Red Dwarf, at first glance I thought it was a reference to "Closet cases of the nerd kind", but that's really obscure!

Shields up, take warp drive offline, give maneuvering thrusters and brace for impact!

There I fixed that for you.
