The increasingly embarrassing County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas has been to school, although his most influential teachers are heatedly denying they ever knew him.
Last week, operating with the wide-eyed naiveté of a first-grader who fell from a tractor and landed on his pointy head, Mr. Ridley-Thomas hooked arms with the two bleary-eyed farout leftist girls on the Board who only guess at what month we are in.
Reprising the Three Stooges of yore to form a Board majority, they voted to endorse President Obama’s latest sally into silliness, letting 10,000 Muslims into our country. Marko agreed to the endorsement because none of the terrorists will be living near the well, well-guarded Supe, who says, “What, me worry?”
Digest this: Under Mr. Obama, 2,184 Syrian “refugees” have leaked into the U.S. Two-point-four percent have been Christian, 96 percent Muslim.
Diaper rash struck Mr. Ridley-Thomas again at yesterday’s Board of Supes meeting.
Let us grant first that to be a Democrat and believe in their picnic-style welfare giveaways to phony victims and wannabe victims, you have to be a little light in the loafers. I mean, look at the faces of the Democrat membership. Not a photographer’s dream.
Behaving more irresponsibly than usual while holding White House talking points in his shaky left hand, the ultra-liberal Mr. Ridley-Thomas said gun violence must stop.
Okay, stop, boys.
With a straight face that must have been painful, Marko suggested that within the next 30 days, Sheriff Jim McDonnell, Dist. Atty. Jackie Lacey, the probation chief and health department officers develop a set of recommendations for curbing gun violence.
Flashing his abiding ignorance, Mr. Ridley-Thomas, keeping his face on straight, urged a gun-buyback program. Brilliant. Syed, the San Bernardino slaughterer, is going to rise from the grave and sell his firearms back to Los Angeles County. Other Muslim radicals hiding out there in Islamic Disneyland no doubt will rush downtown and sell their unloaded gun for $50. How late do you stay up, Marko, to create these shrewd scenarios for snagging Muslim murderers? Tip: You need more sleep.
Mr. Ridley-Thomas introduced a really, really clever trap for Muslim terrorists in the form of a motion that called for additional background checks. That is new. The screech you just heard was nationwide crime slamming on the brakes.
His motion also called for:
- Expanding currently successful department efforts or to implement new promising County programs that prevent violence,
- Expanding workplace safety protocols and practices, and ensuring they are implemented at all County facilities,
- Better enforcement of existing – or adoption of — stricter gun control restrictions and penalties, especially related to the sale or possession of semiautomatic guns and military-style assault weapons, including further background checks on the sale of guns within Los Angeles County,
- Requirements that gun purchasers also buy insurance (similar to car insurance) to cover any taxpayer expenses incurred from the injurious use of a gun, or taxes on ammunition and firearms; and
- State or federal legislative options.
With the help of the two dopey girl Supes, the nonsensical motion passed. Boys, we are all much safer than we were yesterday.
The squishy sounds next heard all around Southern California were discouraged Islamic radicals falling on their rusted swords.
Another wordy war won by fogged-in Supervisors.
