The Battle for California is the Battle for America
The Battle for California is the Battle for America
By now, this is a familiar story. California is a failed state. Thanks to years of progressive mismanagement and neglect, the cities are lawless and the forests are burning. Residents pay the highest prices in America for unreliable electricity. Water is rationed. Homes are unaffordable. The public schools are a joke. Freeways are congested and...

For a fourth of July downer, Shanae Chester’s (Shanaec86) beautifully composed Week 46 entry is hard to beat. That holiday favorite – hot dogs, hamburgers or chicken – sizzling hot off the grill – is yet another dangerous activity in the State of California. Each, at least in crazy California, causes birth defects (chemicals in...

Either that’s some strange liquid toilet paper, or somebody messed up?

Congratulations for week 44 go to Joseph Boring (itisisaccboring) for a nicely composed, humorous entry with sizable social impact. It is indeed sad to learn that “becoming” a mermaid is just another activity that poses health risks – only in crazy California. View this post on Instagram Irony at its finest. The food...

Congratulations for week 41 go to Joseph Boring (itsisaacboring) for his eye-catching Chick-fil-A entry and its significant social impact. Since the culture warfare against Chick-fil-A failed to work, perhaps a Proposition 65 cancer scare will bring it to its knees. If so, that will only happen in Crazy California. If you’re able to survive swallowing...

Congratulations for week 40 go to Jonathan Boring (uplifting cnc). His entry shows a guy garbed in a hazmart suit walking away from an Ace hardware store. Needless to say, the photo also shows a prominently placed Prop 65 warning in the store’s window. It would seem that the Ace Hardware man is not friendly in Crazy California....

Congratulations go to Jonathan Boring (uplifting cnc) for his furniture varnish can with full marks for a funny quip, great irony, and strong social media impact. Like most Californians, the Howard furniture varnish company has not taken the Prop65 warning seriously and found a creative way of letting its customers know that they should disregard...

Week 36’s winning entry is provided by Denise Smith (MrsNellie08). It appears that being fashionable is just another way that Californians can contract cancer or put their progeny at risk. It also points to one of the benefits of the web. The warning only appears when a Californian makes a purchase. Fashion apparently kills only...

David Boring’s (DavidBoring02) simple picture of a walnut board and its combination Proposition 65 warning/bar label is Week 35’s winning entry. Doesn’t his equip, “I guess man glitter is toxic” say it all? So much for wood working, at least in crazy California. View this post on Instagram It’s official! I no longer...

The winner of Week 33 of the Prop 65 photo contest is Danielle Smith (mrsnellie08) for her eye catching and amusing post on yet another irony of California Proposition 65. Companies that process canned foods line their cans with BPA for a very good reason – BPA prevents the growth of botulism which is a deadly poison....

Mary Eyde’s Bendy Man Tweet wins week 31. The combination of a clear readable warning, a picture of the product itself, illustrations of the ways the product can be used, a funny quip, and a strong social media score, are attributes CPC’s judges are seeking. One can only wonder how a lighted product intended to...
