A New Civil War?



California in general and Los Angeles in particular are places that have lived in a liberal's dream world, supported by cheap illegal immigrant labor, Federal govt handouts, and the collection of money via Hollywood's products.

California is no longer a place of much substance. Thus, when Los Angeles threatened to boycott Arizona for their tough illegal immigration stance, Arizona fired back right where it would hurt. See here.

The short version of this story is this: If Los Angeles wants to boycott Arizona, it had better get used to reading by candlelight.

That's the message from a member of Arizona's top government utilities agency, who threw down the gauntlet Tuesday in a letter to Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa by threatening to cut off the city's power supply as retribution.


That is how civil wars can start. Hopefully Los Angeles will consider their position very carefully before they carry this any further.
