Damned if this wasn't the first statement on Constitutional law you got right.
Of course, you left out the part about that being based on the structure of the California Constitution (
Article 18, §§3 & 4):
Thus, in California, rights are determined by the majority rule--by their own choice.
Maybe not the most prudent mode for amending a constitution (hey, this
IS Cali we're talking about!:2razz
, but it is the law of California until such time as the voters opt to amend it.
Oh, and you also left out the bit about California law having to fit within the stricture of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution.
