Daily Stormer The Most Censored Publication in History
Finally, whites are backing up off it and letting a nigga walk on that street.
CNN:
Californians will soon be able to cross the street outside of a formal intersection without being ticketed – as long as it’s safe to do so.
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the Freedom to Walk Act into law on Friday, according to a news release from Assemblymember Phil Ting, who wrote the bill.
The law stipulates that pedestrians can only be ticketed for jaywalking – or crossing outside of an intersection – if there is “immediate danger of a collision,” says the release.
The new law will take effect on January 1.
Finally, you can no longer be fined in California for "jaywalking", a derogatory term based on a slur that the auto industry made up in the 1920s-30s to shame pedestrians for using the public streets. 100 years late is better than never. https://t.co/zSVXNgGAB2

"Jaywalking" was invented by the auto industry. California has essentially legalized getting from one side of a street to the other without using a car. https://t.co/fbWNOJ6lbf

A new law in California allows people to jaywalk as long as it's safe to. “For too long, our jaywalking laws were used as a pretext to stop and harass people, especially low-income people and people of color." Every state should decriminalize jaywalking. https://t.co/yEFvrq2CYl

5️⃣Newsom SIGNED a bill to decriminalize jaywalking in Caliornia.
Data has shown that "Black Californians are up to 4.5 times more likely to be stopped for jaywalking than those who are white." #AB2147 https://t.co/9QpBSguE4Z

“Black people represented 16% of all San Diego jaywalking citations issued between January 2015 and June 2021, according to data provided by the San Diego Police Department, despite being only 6% of the city's population.”https://t.co/ocWGG7Bi9M

California decriminalizes jaywalking….which is so often used as an excuse for police to make contact….which then leads to escalation for "resisting" or whatever the hell. https://t.co/L1BfWBwEcw

“In 2019, Sacramento Police issued 55 jaywalking infractions. Black people accounted for more than 40% of the citations but make up just 13% of the city’s population.”https://t.co/fSSpeJGkdw

In the release, Ting seemed to reference racist policing and the unfair targeting of Black pedestrians for jaywalking arrests.
“It should not be a criminal offense to safely cross the street. When expensive tickets and unnecessary confrontations with police impact only certain communities, it’s time to reconsider how we use our law enforcement resources and whether our jaywalking laws really do protect pedestrians,” said Ting.
“Plus, we should be encouraging people to get out of their cars and walk for health and environmental reasons.”
Yeah, if you let niggas fill up the streets then people won’t be able to drive anymore, and that will change the weather.
Great point.
California really is a den of forward thinking.
This is the gook who wrote the law
