http://www.bakotopia.com/home/Blog/AnnieLWhite/29102 Yesterday after work i got in my car (around 330) and listened to My honey bear Ralph Bailey as i do everyday. There was a women talking about how she thinks (despite the majority of the Kern Population pro-fire work stance) fireworks should be against the law because of the pollution here. I would have called in but i didn't have my cell phone (because i hated having one and never used it so had it shut off) I started feeling the anger raise up to my face. What kind of person thinks its OK to ban the very thing we celebrate FREEDOM with (once a year)? I'll tell you this it was probably a great thing i didn't have my cell phone because i would have told this woman off on the radio, Preston would have had to dump a portion of the call, because i know the F-word would have came FLYING out of my mouth. She works for the (get this) Bakersfield Californian. HAHAHAHA i could have guessed, maybe the BAKERSFIELD CALIFORNIAN should be banned for contributing to wasteful garbage of a &quot;news&quot; paper that hardly no one reads. I'm sure it makes great toilet paper if anything useful, but i wouldn't even buy it for that. I will be sure to buy 10 papers and burn every single one in her honor and my freedom on the 4Th of July. She said (AND I QUOTE) &quot;I DON'T BELIEVE IN RESTRICTION FOR RESTRICTION SAKE&quot; alright&nbsp;she has&nbsp;no idea what she is throwing up out of&nbsp; her&nbsp;liberal mouth, hypocritical statement of the year, how about we take her freedom of press away because its getting out of hand. I want to meet this person, I wanna give her a present, a copy of the Constitution and a bucket of burnt B-Californians. She said we cant do without this luxury and many others. WHAT! This is AMERICA, she is the typical socialist. I just want everyone to know what kind f people live in this town. She is the VERY person i cant stand. She does have the right to say what she wants though, which i will defend although i disagree. She needs to move to a county that fits her needs, maybe San Fran, or Ventura. Why should we change for the minority. and at that someone who works for a shit newspaper.

Schwarzenegger actually asked California residents to not use/buy fireworks for July 4th this year. I believe he was contemplating a statewide ban, but he ultimately decided against it. People are concerned that they'll add to the fire dangers, especially with all of these wildfires we've been dealing with.</p> <p>Apparently even Republican governors support the idea :P</p> http://www.bakotopia.com/home/Blog/AnnieLWhite/29102/#c_265339 http://www.bakotopia.com/home/Blog/AnnieLWhite/29102/#c_265339 <p>I know it's for a different reason, but Gov.
