California’s Newsom signs bill allowing citizens to refuse to help a police officer

Sen. Hertzog thought the law enacted in 1872 was used to catch runaway slaves...Slavery was abolished in the USA in 1865. Never let history and facts cloud your agenda.  Comment to this post:

@GavinNewsom Great job! Let's encourage people NOT to help police! What are you going to do when the death of a police officer could've been prevented? Not a thing! You should be ashamed of yourself! I BACK THE BLUE, wish you did!

Fox News  A comment to this post reads:

"The Sacramento Bee reported that the old law, the California Posse Comitatus Act of 1872, was common in the country’s early days, but Sen. Bob Hertzberg, a Los Angeles Democrat who sponsored the bill, called the old law a “vestige of a bygone era." The law was employed to help catch runaway slaves, the report said."Better read history, California did not have an escaped slave problem, the Emancipation Proclamation was January 1863, and the 13th Amendment was ratified in 1865, seven years prior to the the Act of 1872.The justification and explanation simply exposes a blatant lie and ignorance.

A Trinity County Sheriff’s Office invoked posse comitatus back in 2014 when a couple filed a lawsuit alleging they were put in harm’s way when asked for assistance by a police officer.

"This is your democrat party. Why would anyone vote for a democrat???"

Will this be life for our police officers in California from now on? 

The liberal governor has, however, earned the ire of state and national law enforcement in recent months, making a variety of anti-police remarks.

This is completely insane. The police put their lives on the line in order to support the people and now it is legal to just turn your back on them when they need help.
