While an increasing number of Illegal immigrants are adding to America's already high crime rate, including murder, rape and robbery, the California Legislature is doing all it can to push back against a grassroots effort from the state's citizens to restore "punishment" to the phrase "crime and punishment."

Our colleges and universities have long been little more than leftist indoctrination mills, brainwashing students into believing America and Western Culture are forces of evil.
