Linda Lee: With 30 victims from California, Brown could have shown more concern
As I read all the victims names, their bios, families left behind, the cities and states, I noticed that at least 30 were from California.
The left seems to believe country music fans are gun-toting Trump voters, Republicans and racists. They are human beings and California taxpayers. Jerry Brown did not claim them. He could have used this to show no matter what color you are or what political party you are or what music you listen to, you are a citizen of the state of California and I care. But Brown can’t show caring for these victims or the left will lash out at him.
This would have been the perfect way for him to look bipartisan and show it’s about innocent victims. It shows Jerry Brown does not care about people who appear not to be from the liberal left. There won’t be any appearance of Gov. Brown at any funerals. There should have been an outrage that 30 or more were killed from California. He could have used it to further his agenda of gun control. But I’m sad nobody cares about people. This is not California anymore, it’s a joke.
Linda Lee, Turlock
