Notice how it’s always, “the Bible must inform our laws!” until it comes to the +2,000 verses in the Bible that discuss the generous use of wealth and possessions in a way that prioritizes the needs of the poor, this sick, the stranger, the vulnerable, and the oppressed.

Gov. Newsom is the equivalent of someone hopping in the driver seat and driving it towards a cliff.
Those of us trying to get him to stop are being shouted down because “at least someone is driving!”

Gavin Newsom is all over the news, I feel this is very important because he's likely running for POTUS.

During Antebellum America, enslaving states used Slave Patrols to capture & enslave Black people. Those Slave Patrols then became the Police Force.

Black people have faced lengthy and unfair prison sentences for too long. It’s time to secure justice and relieve victims of extreme sentences.
We filed an amicus brief with Cooley, LLP & NAACP urging the court to address these disparities and provide resentencing to all those affected.
