California proposes ex post facto tax on text messaging

[End Times]

California Constitution, Article I, Section 9:

A bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the obligation of contracts may not be passed.



OMG! Now California wants to tax text-messaging?

https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/12/...ext-messaging/

State regulators have been ginning up a scheme to charge a fee for text messaging on mobile phones to help support programs that make phone service accessible to the poor. The wireless industry and business groups have been working to defeat the proposal, now scheduled for a vote next month by the California Public Utilities Commission.

(...)

But they add that under the regulators’ proposal the charge could be applied retroactively for five years — which they call “an alarming precedent” — and could amount to a bill of more than $220 million for California consumers.

The literal s***hole that is San Francisco has yet to clean up its rampant drug and homeless problem, but at least city officials have taken the time to assemble the first legally recognized transgender district in the world.

According to a lengthy article in the Daily Beast, San Francisco's Tenderloin district now serves as home to the Compton's Transgender Cultural District, located near the historic all-night diner Compton's Cafeteria (now transitional housing), where the famous 1966 riot occurred between transgenders and police.

The district manager, former "RuPaul's Drag Race" contestant Honey Mahogany, told the Daily Beast that the district will be a place of welcoming for trans people where they can learn about trans history.

"The Tenderloin has always held a really special place in my heart as a trans person with the way the community is accepting of gender variant and trans people of color," Mahogany said. "There’s friendliness and an energy to the Tenderloin. People say hello and good morning and how are you and check in with each other, which I think often gets lost in a big city."

"Many of our traditions are passed down through queer bars because those are the places where our elders interact with younger generations," Mahogany continued. "Drag is often seen as a way of storytelling and passing on stories of previous generations."

The district will include a community center that will be at the site of a former gay bathhouse. It received $215,000 from the city as part of an initiative passed in November that allocated $3 million from an existing hotel tax toward the city's cultural districts. The Calle 24: Latino Cultural District and the LGBTQ Leather Cultural District in SOMA will also be receiving funds.

I do it to illustrate the utter lie the Jewsmedia spews daily that "we are a nation of laws."
