    You become convinced that the FBI acted improperly to spy on US citizens, and you are going to find that we agree on a few more things.

    No worries, San Francisco is a Sanctuary city. The illegals will pay enough taxes to support the city...........won't they?

    The state treasurer actually went through people's bank accounts several years ago and simply confiscated assets if he deemed
    they weren't being actively used.

    I lost a small IRA account that I got in a divorce settlement and simply let lay in a bank account. That's California.

    "One AND the same" duh.
    You just exposed your own prejudices. And even just taking from your quote of that article....
    "The percentage of homosexual pedophiles ranges from 9% to 40%, which is approximately 4 to 20 times higher than the rate of adult men attracted to other adult men"

    It's saying that while adult male homosexuality is 2-4%, the frequency of pedophiles who molest boys is 4 to 20 times greater. That obviously means that most male pedophiles who molest boys are not homosexuals.

    And then just for a sense of how "accurate" that article is, consider the statement he made of a frequency being "4 to 20 times higher". That's real "precision". LOL!!!!!

    In summary, you blatantly misconstrued a highly imprecise and unreliable article.

    Is this departure from Kalifornia all part of the swamp being drained?
    Methinks that was a rhetorical question.

    I think people are overthinking it. San Francisco is known world wide for three things. Silicon Valley, trolleys and the entire city smells like urine and semen. People are probably just leaving because they don't want to wake up to the smell of unwashed penis every morning.

    You're reading it wrong Bub.

    It's saying that while adult male homosexuality is 2-4%, the frequency of pedophiles who molest boys is 4 to 20 times greater. That obviously means that most male pedophiles who molest boys are not homosexuals.

    Can you hear yourself? Why would a non-homosexual male molest a boy instead of a girl? Your theory is amusing, but fails the reality test. Homosexual males have a 4 to 20 times higher rate of molestation than hetro males. It's just a fact.

    It couldn't happen to a nicer state, judging from all I've read.

    Exactly. That's when the Kennedy's opened the door to the Third World for free and the USA began slipping and sliding towards Third Worldism.

    I imagine someone started one. I found out some time after the state helped itself to my money they decided I wasn't gong to use
    (or may not be able to use) my account had been cleaned out so while commuting to a job in Sacramento from Napa
    actually contacting someone in the treasurer's office was nearly impossible.

    I was told by the state I could file a claim but in the aftermath of a divorce I was at a low point in my life and decided the amount recovered would just about be equal to what I would have to pay another lawyer, which I refused to do.

    It was a bitter costly lesson and one that made my exodus from California years later much easier to make.

    There are plenty of records of married me who have no known homosexual activity molesting boys. I know of one personally.

    Male to male attraction is homosexuality. Maybe you got fooled and thought they were not homosexuals.

    You're the first person I heard claiming that the Coal Industry really matters. The rest of us are more pragmatic. When a dispatchable power source to displace Coal comes along, it'll be time to move. To shut down the grid is stupid as they found out in South Austrailia. Elon Musk and his batteries to the rescue ,, this time.

    IT is just 8% and government is 12% of GDP in CA. Liberals didn't create the Port of LA or San Francisco Bay, so don't gloat or NYC for that matter.

    I suspect this happened under unclaimed property laws, which every state has. Basically, if an account is dormant and the owner can't be found, after a certain amount of time (5 years?) it gets turned over to the state.

    Even after it is turned over, you can file a claim to prove it was your account. Not sure how easy that is.

    This wasn't a case of the state "going through private accounts and seizing money they felt wasn't being actively used." That's just Best Friend's spin.

    We actually have that in my state now. They did that and a lot of people got pretty pissed. 3 Years ago the dems in the legislature came up with a great idea. So after the five years are up, the state posts every name that they think has an account that can be seized to a database, and they have what they call the “Great Iowa Treasure Hunt”. They post it to the site and you can claim it from there, but once posted, it has to stay posted for 3 years. There are actually services that you can pay, and every year the will do the searches for you and call you if they find something.

    I’m still not a fan of the state seizing those assets no matter what. It’s NOT their money, and never was.

    They have been for a while. Many live a number of miles east ,,, spreading the tax, spend and over-regulate ideology to formerly conservative areas of the state.

    Generally, Liberals like to transfer their problems to others ,,, like the Intermountain Coal Fired Power Station that supplies electricity to LA is located near Salt Lake City.

    I somewhat agree, but what’s the alternative? The bank keeps it? I like that even less. Having decades-old zombie accounts with no known owner is a problem that needs some sort of solution.

    So you're not part of the 20 times greater than average? So what?
