Reporting from Sacramento -- Less than 24 hours after Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and legislative leaders announced a plan to close California's massive budget deficit, Los Angeles County officials moved to sue the state, a union for government workers said it might strike, and Republicans threatened to back out of the deal over a provision to cut the number of prison inmates by 27,000.

But as those preparations went ahead, the leader of the Republicans in the state Assembly reacted angrily to news posted on The Times' website about the deal's effect on prisons. Under the plan, some inmates would be allowed to finish their sentences on home detention, new incentives would be created for completion of rehabilitation programs, and parole supervision would be scaled back for the least serious offenders. The prisons now hold 168,000 inmates.

A "Parole Re-Entry Accountability Program" would reduce the state parole population by 46,000 -- more than a third of those now under supervision -- depending on their crimes and behavior.

Those things get 3.75%...better than my 401k.

Nothing like increasing that already low crime statistic.

1) If the state workers go on strike people will clap as we really don't need the majority of them.
2) If they simply took all illegal alien violent offenders and put them in a meat grinder, it would be many more than 27000.

What inmates? Kids who were smoking pot under a tree? Fine by me. Robbers, rapists and murderers? Keep 'em, Cali.

Decriminalize pot and end mandatory drug sentencing. You'd empty prisons by much more than 27,000 that way.

I initially thought that. But she constantly updates with shit like, "Only 9 more months and then the sentence is up!" or "Yay, I got to visit him this weekend!"

Ah, well I take back my possible location.

If the Earth needed an enema it would be inserted via Cali.
