Californians passed law decriminalizing theft up to $950. How'd it work out for 'em?

This is a hoot:  A couple of years ago the brilliant Democrats who rule California started a petition to put a "proposition" on the ballot.  (Like many states, California allows citizens to put on questions on the ballot for a statewide vote on whether to make it state law.)  Proposition 47 ordered prosecutors not to prosecute anyone for stealing anything under $950.

Re-read that last sentence again as you read the name the communists gave this POS:  They named Proposition 47 the "Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act."

Yeah, seriously.  "Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act."  By ordering prosecutors not to prosecute theft under $950!

If that strikes you as an utter lie--a deliberate attempt to fool morons--you're right.  You already know what was absolutely, positively, unavoidably gonna happen if this POS passed, right?

Sure enough, this lie passed.  So how's that working out for the state?
