Send these folks down to Cali where they'll feel at home and blend right in with the general population.

Damn. That's fucked up. Completely.

If Sandoval had a had in this, I sure hope he gets recalled.

I guess it's a good thing they're not sending them to Arizona. Knowing our state government, we would probably send them back to Nevada fully armed.

I'd be really shocked if he ordered it directly but it does appear tight budgets were at least partially behind this.

Fly with 'Virgin Atlantic' - there I got a massage right over the Atlantic Ocean, somewhere by greenland I think (okay it was First Class, but anyway ;-) )

Tight budgets? LOL. How many states don't have tight budgets? lol

Still, if he signed off on this, his head should roll.

Lets see, Nevada has a republican governor and legislature, how are the democrats responsible?

No one in this thread blamed Democrats.
