California Eugenics
Number of Victims
In total, 20,108 people were sterilized in the state of California prior to 1964. California had by far the highest number of sterilizations in the United States (one third of all sterilizations nationwide). The numbers of men and women sterilized were about equal. Of the total sterilizations, almost 60% were considered mentally ill and more than 35% were considered mentally deficient. Men and women of Mexican origin represented between 7% and 8% of those sterilized (Stern, Eugenic Nation, p. 111). African Americans made up 1% of California’s population but accounted for 4% of the sterilizations (Stern, Eugenic Nation, p. 111). However, because of the sensitive nature of sterilization records, many are difficult to access or have been altered. This suggests that the total known number of sterilizations may be conservative compared to the actual number (Stern, "From Legislation to Lived Experience," p. 97).
Period during which sterilizations occurred
The first sterilization law was passed in 1909. From here, sterilizations occurred at a steady increasing rate until about 1950. Prior to 1921, there were 2,558 sterilizations and this rate continued to increase until around 1950. California differed from many other states, in that, sterilizations did not significantly decrease with the Great Depression (Clayton, p. 43). After 1950, the rate slowed, and only 85 sterilizations occurred after 1960.

California Liberals Pass Bill to Regulate Sex
A bill that has just passed the California State Senate could effectively make criminals out of many people- just for having sex.
The bill, SB 967, would require “affirmative consent” before college-age couples can have sex. This would essentially outlaw sex that is had “while in the heat of passion”.
From Breitbart News:
SB 967, amended last week by state Sen. Kevin de Leon (D-Los Angeles), would mandate that college students obtain “an affirmative, unambiguous, and conscious decision by each participant to engage in mutually agreed-upon sexual activity.”

Tearful Obama, the Narcissist
United States President Barack Obama delivered a tearful thirty-three-minute speech covering gun control on Tuesday morning. His speech focused on two very important factors in the president's eyes: gun violence and himself.
According to online news magazine Grabien, President Obama refers to himself 76 times within his thirty-three-minute speech.
The keywords included were "me," "myself," "our," and "we," with "we" only added to the tally when the president was clearly including himself.
If you are unsure of whether or not Grabien's count is accurate, the video is available for viewing and TIME posted a transcript of the speech.
As Graiben reported, Obama spoke about pain when giving speeches following mass shootings, about meeting Gabby Giffords shortly after she was shot -noting she opened her eyes for the first time an hour after his visit - spoke of the Second Amendment, "his background as a contitutional law professor, his critics, his frequent trouble locating his iPad, and perhaps most memorably, his anger when thinking about child victims of mass shootings."
After primarily speaking about himself, several took to the internet to voice their opinions, with one commenter labeling Obama a "Homosexual Narcissist Muslim terrorist," while another simply stated most Democrats "are Marxist."
