Is there any item available for sale online that does not have the "WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm."? I bought an extension cord from Amazon with that warning last week and I now I'm afraid that just handling it using it will give me cancer. Maybe I need to call a local biohazard company to remove that dangerous cord before it affects our whole family.
Next thing you know they'll be banning the Pledge of Allegiance...

Sounds like fake news. But then again...I used to paint cars for my customers back in high school. I was so successful that my neighbor complained to the county and they shut me down. The guy told me they only act on complaints. There is a possibility that I developed Parkinsons (PD) due to the exposure to all those chemicals. I never smoked, took drugs and did not drink till I was 21. I was painting cars when my buddy's were smokin joints. Let that be a lesson for yah. lol

It even says that you couldn't even help a family member change their oil ("minor repair") at your house if they live elsewhere. Funny, my son has a persistent rim leak on a couple tires and usually uses my compressor to inflate them out on our driveway when he stops by here. We would be fined for that horrible crime.
They've been running this in newer neighborhoods for years around here. It's been HOAs pretty much but it seems that some city counsel jackass has taken it upon themselves to stamp on one more of our freedoms. It probably will be only enforced by complaint though. I can't imagine this going before a judge unless someone was running a repair shop out of their house. I know it's a pain when I can't even park in front of my own house because the guy next door has cars all over the place waiting to be fixed.
They are coming for your gas and old cars next. Mark my words... Can't wait to see those train tracks to Hawaii being laid down.

The priorities in this state (I do live in Sacramento county in a suburb) are so screwed up.
My sister and brother-in-law lived in S.F. and the last straw for them was a homeless guy taking a dump in the alley across the street from their 1.2MM dollar house in Noe valley.
You can [censored] in the streets of that city, get free needles and shoot up on the sidewalk or in special facilities for the "drug addicted", yet they just outlawed the sale of vape products and I'm not sure, but I think vaping is also now illegal in S.F.
And Gavin "Pompadour" Newsom makes our previous Governor "Moonbeam Brown" look like a right winger.
As soon as my job allows working from home or remote locations, I'm gone...maybe sooner if I find something better.
The legislators in this state just sit around looking for new ways to tax us.
And the mayor of Sacto, Daryl Steinberg, is a complete [censored] show as well. The homeless problem has boomed since he took office.
You guys are killing me, LOL. But your right. Not one product in CA. comes without a prop 65 warning! Even my Rainbird hose nozzle. Can’t take a drink while watering the flowers! Really? I live on a few acres on the river in the northern most tip of Sutter Co. where I proudly walk outside and take a p### if I feel the need. Don’t know how long that will last, but until then, Robert, and Jeff, you guys are welcome bend wrenches at my place.
let's not turn the site into foxnews, the title of the article is written to grab you, it's called bait or a hook, most towns and cities have some sort of ordinances to stop people from turning their homes into cheapo garages where some clown is working on the side and dumping oil and chemicals all over the place, it's also very illegal to paint cars without a booth because regardless of what you care about your own health, the health and air of your neighbors and others matters, some places simply have nowhere for you to take the used oil or other waste products, my town allows us to drop these off at the transfer station........can you imagine how many illegal shops are being run in cities like Sacramento or LA???
Ron, thanks buddy at least I know a place I can piss in peace. I feel a little better about California now. 😠Seriously though if it wasn't for the weather here I'd probably have been gone a long time ago. Not sure where. Everybody I know is leaving the state for Montana or Washington or Idaho. My wife doesn't want to leave because of the grandkids. The money I save by living somewhere else would get spent on traveling back. Not sure what the answer is. When I figure it out I'll let you know.

I've got 4 acres. most of it bush and tall trees. I'm the second last guy on the street. Pop density is approx 1 guy and his dog per sq mile! lol
I literally piss anywhere outside.

seriously??
as far as accuracy goes, fox is dead last at about 20%, CNN, and others are about 60-70% and NPR/PBS is 90%, they can't rate 100 because some jerks in DC gutted their funding forcing them to take corporate cash which forces them not to run some facts or lose that money, all of your news is factored by their ad revenue and opinion news is simply that, an opinion which have zero bearing on facts, history or scientific fact
the simple fact regarding vehicle work is that you can't have some clowns in the cities on a .15 acre lot running a shop and dumping their chemicals all over, we live in a society that has gopne backwards for several decades and generations and many now have zero respect or responsibility and have twisted the Declaration statement of "right to pursue happiness" into "I got the right to do whatever I want...." and you don't, most regulations came about in response to irresponsible people and corporations, left on their own to do the right thing and "police themselves" they just can't do it, irresponsibility and greed always get in the way

It would be interesting to see the detailed statistics of the source of those numbers. For example, do they count two straight years of near 24/7 breathless CNN and other media stories and discussion claiming Russian collusion as one fake news story or thousands and thousands of stories? Note that fake news is not only incorrect stories but also the obvious biased tone of those stories and the thousands of important stories ignored or downplayed when it does not meet their agenda.
Seriously, there are too many people in government who would rather use a broad brush that takes away more freedoms to address specific problems. If "clowns in the cities on a .15 acre lot running a shop and dumping their chemicals all over" is the issue, go after them to the full extent of the law, not oppress law-abiding Americans with more government. I'll bet there are already strong laws in that area covering the operation of a business in an area with residential zoning and very strong laws about dumping chemicals.
NPR/PBS is 90%, they can't rate 100 because some jerks in DC gutted their funding forcing them to take corporate cash
Their "funding" came from my taxes without my knowledge or agreement. Our taxes should be utilized for the minimum necessary to actually run the country, not as a charity bucket to use as different government committee teams see fit based on lobbyist loyalties (or any other charities for that matter). Think they're any less biased when they get government funding from those people? If I wanted them to have my money, I would send them money. If you're so concerned, they take direct donations. Put your money where your mouth is.

You make it sound as if this is running rampant. Proof? I doubt the number of times this has happened is a drop in the overall bucket. It's punishing the many because of an insignificant few (trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist). Feel-good solutions for non-problems. And another waste of tax money.
