Well they thumb their nose at the constitution when it comes to the 2A and they thumb their nose at the federal government itself when it comes to weed for starters.

Some of their policies regarding illegal aliens (though this is more of a city by city thing) are arguably in direct contradiction with federal law.

A lot of the rulings the 9th circuit has come up with over the years look like they came out of left field with regard to the constitution and the precedent being set.

I can dig up specific examples if you want.

I'm not passing a value judgement here, just saying that CA likes to interpret the constitution rather freely, for better or worse.

Say what you want about the 9th circuit, it is an organ of the Federal Government so it makes a strange example.
