      That’s not “questionable,” that’s straight-up evil and totalitarian. There’s not any ambiguity about it, at all: the ESA wants to destroy private property ownership and subjugate us all as cattle to be milked.

        It doesn’t fucking matter. Not even a little bit. It’s 1000% an attack on property rights and must be stopped by any means necessary.

    What’s it take to pass a bill in the California senate? The yea votes outnumbered the nays. I wish the author of the piece had gone into more detail about that.
