ANOTHER CALIFORNIA WARM-AND-FUZZY LAW NOT LEGALLY ENFORCEABLE

by Bob Walsh

About two years ago the formerly great state of California passed a law that required businesses headquartered in CA to have at least one and possibly as many as three members on their board who are members of underrepresented communities.  This might include open homosexuals, transsexuals, left-handed Lithuanian alcoholic child molesters, dog nappers, insurance salesmen and other people who do not normally land on the board.  The Secretary of State would have the power to fine companies who did not comply..

A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ruled about three days ago that this has serious problems with equal protection under the law and other issues along those lines.  It is not clear yet what steps the state will take, if any, to appeal.

Left-handed Lithuanian alcoholic child molesters? Both of them?
