Hmmmm, since they can't support the gov't then maybe the gov't should pull ALL gov't support to them and a percentage of any support to California as well.

Absolutely unacceptable. I am ashamed to attend a university in the same state.

It's difficult being from California at times, especially seeing all the BS which comes from the Bay area. Say what you will, we still have more enlistments from our state then from any other(although we're not the highest as far as percentage of population). It would be interesting to see what part of the state gives rise to these enlistees. I imagine Berkley is not high on the list.
Are you sure they are not just just protesting those fancy Marine dress uniforms.

I seem to recall that there was once an issue about denying federal funds to colleges that prohibited military recruiters on campus.
Perhaps the same standard should be applied to communities as well.

I hope that they enjoy sharia law.
Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of people.

It really is baffling to understand the mindset in the Bay area . The entire area lives with within the shadow of a number of catstrophic events. Fires, flooding, mud slides and quakes. The cry for U S Government help will be loud when the catrophic event hits. The first US aid will likely be from the US Military...the very group of people being openly expelled from the Bay area. What are they thinking???

Agreed. I also wish that all military presence really could leave them. Heck, considering their track record of appreciation of LE, remove them too. Then they would see how kind and peaceful the world really is without better men standing watch.
I'm sure they welcome thousands of illegals though. For that I call them treasonous.

There's an old saying in this part of PA. "There's a time to stand up!............And, a time to SHUT UP". This mayor has gotten them reversed. I dont think he'll be able to get the worms back in the can.

I think it's time to blow the charges on the San Andreas Fault and start over.

The above information was downloaded from the Mayor's biography. I guess I don't get it. Here's a guy who played college football and was a Captain in the Army. Go figure.

Sounds to me he's playing off the demographics of the area inorder to either get re-elected or raise his popularity....
