Comments: Politicians are using deceptive and biased ballot titles to mislead voters. Reform California is fighting to remove politicians from the process. In 1911, California voters secured a Constitutional right to use “citizen initiatives” to place items on the ballot to impose reform on their politicians. The citizen initiative, and the companion right to recall politicians from office, are vitally important rights that serve as the ultimate checks on state and local government. "Unfortunately, California’s politicians have found a way to strip citizens of our Initiative rights – while confusing voters into approving ballot measures they don’t agree with!" says Carl DeMaio, Chairman of Reform California. How Politicians Deceive Voters with Biased Ballot Titles State and local politicians control the wording used on your ballot to describe ballot initiatives. Politicians have repeatedly issued false and misleading titles for proposed citizen initiatives that they disagree with – and shockingly favorable titles for initiatives placed on the ballot by the politicians themselves. For example, in the 2018 election the Attorney General changed the title of Proposition 6 from the “Gas Tax Repeal Initiative” to “Eliminates Road Repair Funding.” Voters were so confused that they voted against an initiative that the public polling showed was actually favored by voters by a 2:1 margin. In 2020 politicians gave a biased title to Prop 15 – a massive property tax hike that repealed many parts of Prop 13 from 1978. Prop 15’s biased title simply emphasized “Increases Funding for Schools and Community Services…” Not a single mention of “Tax Increase” in the title. Similarly local politicians repeatedly place measures on the ballot that raise local taxes, but the titles on these initiatives never use the words “Tax Increase.” Honest and Fair Ballot Titles Carl DeMaio and Reform California believe it is time we take away the power of politicians to manipulate the title of a citizen initiative and instead give the responsibility to a neutral and independent body. Voters deserve the simple truth, not a political agenda, when voting on ballot measures. DeMaio and Reform California's proposal is simple: Take Politicians Out of the Process: The non-partisan Legislative Analyst’s Office shall provide the Title and Summary of all state ballot measures. In cases where an initiative is a Citizens’ Initiative, the Citizens shall also be able to offer a short Title for their Initiative to accompany the Title provided by the Legislative Analyst’s Office. Local governments shall be required to designate a neutral third-party (such as County Counsel or City Attorney) to devise ballot Titles and Summaries. Require all Tax Hikes Be Disclosed: The words “TAX INCREASE” shall be the first words of the title for any measure that increases taxes. Give Courts Jurisdiction: Courts should be empowered to make additional modifications to Titles and Summaries of ballot measures if any misleading information is presented by proponents or opponents.

Comments: I wrote a song. Maybe the IOI can use his guitar skills to write some music to go along with it. Verse 1 Well, you left that old car sitting, With a flat tire by the curb, Covered up in dust and leaves, Like it never knew the word “disturbed.” You said, “I’ll move it someday,” Well, someday finally came, There’s a tow truck down the street, And brother, they know your name! Chorus 🎵 Tow truck, tow truck, rolling down the road, Hooking up your junker and away she goes! Tow truck, tow truck, hear that diesel roar, If you leave it long enough, you won’t see it anymore! 🎵 Verse 2 There’s a Honda by the sidewalk, A Chevy by the tree, A rusty little Toyota That hasn't moved since ‘83. The neighborhood kept asking, “Is somebody gonna care?” Well, now there’s orange cones out, And a flashing light up there! Chorus 🎵 Tow truck, tow truck, rolling down the road, Hooking up your junker and away she goes! Tow truck, tow truck, hear that diesel roar, You thought it was your driveway, but it ain't no more! 🎵 Bridge No registration, no plates, No tires underneath, No, you can't just park it there And call it “storage,” please! Final Chorus 🎵 Tow truck, tow truck, coming for the fleet, Dragging every abandoned car right off the street! Tow truck, tow truck, cleanup has begun, Your rusty old lawn ornament just lost the right to run! 🎵 Outro: Hook it up... Drag it out... Next abandoned car, please!

Comments: 2011 was the year I discovered homemade pozole, Costco chocolate muffin trays, Douglas Bugers and mountains of mustard drenched pastrami. In preparation for the May Dayton Hamfest I loaded up on all of the stinkiest food I could. Because I am constantly constipated I could easily avoid taking any poops before I got to Dayton. It was a sunny day in Dayton and I had a big breakfast of spicy turkey sausage and hash browns. This really made my bowels writhe in torment because my colon was clamped shut. I jumped in my rental car and parked at Dayton as close as I could get to the bathrooms. As I hurried to the bathroom stalls my guts were twisted in a knot. At first nothing happened once I was seated on the porcelin throne but then the long stinky farts started. It became so nauseous in there that other fat Hams started complaining. Before long they started evacuating. All of a sudden I was emitting putrid Hershey squirts into the toilet bowl. I was flushing about every 5 seconds but was gradually starting to overwhelm the toilet with thick turds of putrid poop. Soon I heard a commotion outside and you would have thought Isis was there, beheading Fat Hams as fast as they could. Luckily somebody video taped the mayhem. https://youtu.be/fHKUFu-yz-E?si=JdrNCZLks2N2POZ0
Comments: The shit volcano at Dayton Posted on May 22, 2011 by admin Okay…. Armageddon didn’t happen as planned, but at the Dayton Hamfest today, it seemed very likely that at least one of the plagues was being imposed by a vengeful God on the Amateur Radio community. Our contacts at Dayton witnessed what can only be described as a shit fountain of unprecedented proportions. Undoubtedly, some overweight ham overtaxed the Hara Center’s plumbing system, causing a rupture of the sewer main underneath the outdoor exhibition area, in the middle of some hapless vendors and by the food preparation area.. Fountains of human feces erupted from the pavement, creating a river of liquid shit as yet unseen in the long and storied history of the Dayton Hamvention. It was the rivers of feces, toilet paper and urine creeping into the vendor’s merchandise that was the first clue — no one noticed the telltale smell that such an event brings with it because everybody’s nose had long since gone numb inhaling the combined bodily odour of thousands of fat, smelly hams all weekend. These photos were submitted by our spies, and I gotta warn you… they made me fucking gag. Not so much seeing hammy turds piled like cordwood, but that the Hara workers are standing in a LAKE OF LIQUID SHIT wearing nothing but sneakers. If you look closely, you can see that the man’s PANT LEGS ARE FUCKING DAMP. If there was ever an unintended but wholly accurate editorial on the state of amateur radio in North America, it fucking happened at Dayton this year. Not only are normal people repelled by hams, even their excreta can’t stand to be associated with them. ***WARNING… THESE PHOTOS WILL MELT YOUR SOUL***
Comments: IOI do not worry about what i say here...nobody cares! Just stay away from Hong Kong Phooey, he will give you big case of HERPES and maybe some of that CCP drugs so you do fentanyl fold all day

Comments: word on the street marts is that the 450 repeater has become 'digital' only, digital voice and data, so unless someone puts a digital radio on to decode that and feed it to broadcastify, the party is over for the a.m./ analog man with analog radio. But the truth is USA is just playing recorded random digital traffic to simulate activity and try to get people interested in his "new" repeater... wow
Comments: There are three levels of GAY you forgot: 9: Talking excessively about "the dongs on horses" and comparing them to "Stationmasters" 10: Being Steve Hoffman and getting into a conversation WITH the guy in #9 and talking to him ABOUT "the dongs on horses" and how they compare to "Stationmasters" 11: Being Steve Hoffman. Also why is it apparently gayer to be pegged by a hot blonde rather than a bull-dyke? The latter seems gayer.
Comments: 1.getting pegged by an ugly mean bull dyke 2.getting pegged by a hot blonde with big boobs 3.getting pegged by a HAMB 4.getting pegged with a handy J 5.getting pegged by a dude 6.talking about getting pegged on UHF hamb radio 7. #6 while your wife/gf is listening and getting more pissed by the second 8.talking about getting pegged while claiming to be a strong virile white male hetero stud muffin and then digressing into dogs humping legs and HAMBS humping dogs legs so,,,you guys may need REHAB or OBEDIENCE SCHOOL ~0930 k6hog
Comments: Uninformed listener on broadcastify. Can anyone please tell me what exactly happened to the 147.450 repeater??? Why is it broadcasting endless loops of Steve Hoffman recordings??? This has been going on for weeks now! Could someone please let us know if the 450 will Remain this way? Is it down for repairs?? Please advise. Sincerely; Just a random listener

Comments: The 7235kHz swap net was a nice place to hang out and buy, sell or trade ham equipment. After JMM was kicked off 435 he started showing up on the net. Not long after that the CW messages started, pointing out how many times The Fat Man had been banned across all repeaters in SoCal. JMM tried to deflect, claiming he was just a minor ham in the Amateur Radio World and pulled the wool over W6BDW's eyes. JMM rabble roused and got everyone to file reports with the FCC. The FCC hates JMM and said they were too busy to help. Then JMM rabble roused more and a bunch of inept know-nothings tried their hand at HF RDF-ing. Abysmal Failure ensued. The CW showed up every weekday morning without fail. That fucking little box is amazingly reliable. My hat is off to the folks who built it. It even seems to correctly start on time when Daylight Savings Time is in effect! It's been running for years and JMM is a total failure at locating it. Everyone knows he is a liar about his "deadly" RDF skills and the CW box is the proof. .--- -- -- ..-. ..- A few "white hats" rode through and claimed they would find the CW box but they too failed. Not long after that the numerous hilarious recordings started which BDW nicknamed The Hecklers. Then BDW got the ARRL riled up for a week or two; then crickets ensued. Once Riley Hollingsworth found that JMM was the root cause ol' Riley backed out pronto! Not too long after that BDW rage-quit for the first time. However, side-sucking hams convinced him to come back as they patted his fragile ego on the head. JMM got his hopes up when "stopthejam.com" arrived with much fanfare. Their biggest accomplishment is polluting the ham SDRs with their logo but they are clueless about HF RDF. Then BDW rage quit yesterday (again). ..-. ..- .--- -- -- What do we NOW hear on 435 but JMM trash talking ME and saying the jamming started when I showed up. Anyone can listen to the CW and see that it says FU JMM on one frequency and JMM FU on the other. Pretty clever how it bounces between 7225 and 7235, preventing the net from hiding 10kHz down. FUCK YOU JMM.
Comments: BUZZ has a new RDF mobile tracking team to find YOU when you jam or fail to operate with a proper call sign per cfr 47 part 97 dam it !! Bosozoku is often a controversial topic with the online car and bike communities, with many having varying opinions of what the Bosozoku tuning style entails. As you may have guessed, Bōsōzoku (暴走族) style was born in the motherland, Japan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPvUZI-RvIA
Comments: If you are going to continue rebroadcasting digital transmissions over your analog repeater simply to maintain proof of activity on the pair, you are sorely mistaken you will be able to retain ***SOMEONE ELSES*** repeater pair by simply jamming the pair with noise. Those that are far more technical than you Chris know what you're up to and jamming the pair does not constitute activity.
