I wear them in the winter because they're warm, easy to slip on, and have nice tread to keep from slipping on ice. In that area of California where it's always warm, it makes no sense. They're similar to moccasins that would be used in winter. Only those were real fur and animal skin making them even warmer.

It's not even an economic issue. I'm really tired of people claiming that if you're poor, you're going to steal. No. People who want easy money steal. Nobody would call the mob poor, but they'd hijack delivery trucks and steal the merchandise. Most of the retail theft in California is organized. Like you saw that woman when arrested saying she'd been caught many times before. It's not because she's poor. It's because she knows who to sell it to making it easy, and she knew she wouldn't face consequences. Same with drug dealing. They see drug dealers with all these nice things, and they just drive around all day. It's the allure of easy money.

The prosecutors were refusing to prosecute. A lot of activist lawyers got elected as head prosecutor in very blue areas of California and simply refuse to enforce the laws they don't like. It's called prosecutrial discretion.

Local and state governments are far more direct democracy than federal is. Citizens can add and vote on laws and regulations. The closer the government is to the citizens, the more it becomes direct democracy. I can't make a petition and have the federal legislators put it a vote to the entire country.

Ummm every other state already prosecutes for theft. They don't need it because they never passed a law making under $950 a misdemeanor.

That's what the new law is. It's to cut down on the habitual ones. It's become organized rings doing it.

The people voted overwhelmingly for those policies. You can't sue the state for doing what was voted for.
