I know it is going to be brutal here but please try to avoid getting carried away.

I'm serious. She represented her city. Good for her. Half of those picked up by ICE didn't even have any prior infractions.

Except they were in the country illegally and during those years utilized benefits paid for by taxpayers. Many of the i******s interviewed on our local TV stations have to have a t***slator even though they have been in the country for decades. Seems older immigrants assimilated into the country & learned the language much more readily than the current ones who entered spuriously.

First, I didn’t read the article or are gonna waste time doing so.
I’m just gonna say if she did NOT violate the BROWN ACT then she is 100% within her rights to say anything she wants.
Her constituents will decide if she was right or wrong. It’s they she is catering to, not you or PUTOS or ICE.
But conservatives are ignorantly turning this into something it’s not!
Educate yourself on the Brown Act before you make a passionate fool of yourself!!!
If she violated the Brown Act, the District Attorney is MANDATED to bring charges, it’s NOT optional.
If NO charges have been brought forward then it’s just internet fodder and little more!!!

The Brown Act is a state law and Federal laws supersede State laws but you, of course, don't care as long as it fits your agenda......

I read a brief summary of the Brown Act and fail to see it's revalence in this case.

As did I. That said, laws can be construed in any number of ways but still Federal Laws trump State laws...

She is governed by the laws of the constitution of the state of California. She is NOT a federal employee!!!

She resides in the Federal jurisdiction of the United States so the fact that she is a State worker is not relevant... Now if California was not a part of the United States, then you would have a point.

Maybe one of you needs to train to s lawyer, not just go around in a conservative circle.
You’re making an argument where none exists.
I know it makes great conservative fodder, especially if it’s written with a conservative bent.
But laws are laws and if a local law was broken, in such a high profile situation, No DA would have waited 24 hours before pressing charges or suffer the public fallout. A Federal prosecutor would have done the same.
What, you think the feds and county prosecutors have spent the last two weeks examining the law to figure out what to charge her with???
A Federal Judge can find the errors in PUTOS’s laws like the Muslim Ban in a few days and those are hundreds of pages of legalese!!! LoL
So go ahead and turn this into pages of empty and baseless opinions!!!
You did afterall ask what people thought, not what was real!! LoL
