You will see this happen at Mission Bay this summer, we promise.Some Arizona energy commissioner is threatening to cut off electricity supplies to Los Angeles unless LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa renounces the city’s boycott. “I would be happy to help them to renegotiate the power agreements so they no longer receive power from Arizona,” commissioner Gary Pierce told ABC News. Arizona has a nuke plant plus some filthy coal plants, plus it takes hydropower from the Colorado River, which has been dammed and ruined for this purpose by awful people from Arizona (and the water is from the Rocky Mountains, not Arizona, which doesn’t have water), and some of this electrical power is sold to California — including about a quarter of LA’s electricity. This is what they’re going to do if you complain about them being actual Nazis. It’s going to be fun when Commander in Chief Barack Obama orders a U.S. military invasion of this rogue state, isn’t it? Better complete the danged fence on the northern and western and eastern borders, too!

“I feel like if you’re going to boycott the candy store, you’ve got to leave all the candy alone,” said Arizona Corporation Commissioner Gary Pierce. Arizona provides 25 percent of Los Angeles’ power.

“I feel like Arizona is the candy store,” he added.

Pierce made his challenge after the Los Angeles City Council’s 13-1 vote earlier this month to boycott Arizona and Arizona-based businesses.

Californians have called Arizona a lot of names over the years, but “candy store” isn’t one of them.

Meanwhile, Arizona racists have begun a campaign of harassment against San Diego, which in many ways is just a pricey suburb of Phoenix. The City of San Diego (actually run from a federal prison) put out some mild condemnation of Arizona’s “round up the browns” law, not even a boycott, but now the dumb Zonies are threatening not to make their annual summer pilgrimage to Mission Bay, the tacky colony for Arizona heat exiles.

Sure they won’t come. Not only is San Diego the closest white-person seashore to Phoenix, but it’s literally the only place that would tolerate the tacky loud-mouth red-faced sunburned-fake-boobed pot-bellied Arizona suburban lamers. Not even right-wing Orange County wants Arizona trash — OC might be kind of wingnutty, politically, but it’s also very very rich and fancy on the coast. Not really the kind of place for people who never take the fucking plastic off their couches. [ABC News/Fox News]

UPDATE: Hahaha, the LA Department of Water and Power has P0WNed Arizona, you must read this.

Zonies? I like it.

The power we perfected is electrically connected, so use it as directed and expect to be respected.

Joshua Norton May 19, 2010 at 6:57 pm

Gee. That could work if it were legal for one party of an agreement to unilaterally renegotiate and create new terms on a whim. Someone obviously slept through their contract law class.

Sure no problem. Time to divert the Colorado river I think. Arizona won’t be needing it now that they are not supplying power to anyone outside the state

arizona is proving a focal point of innovative new ways to waste the public monies through inviting lawsuits in response to ill-considered political grandstanding. interstate commerce clause, anyone? help yourselves, there’s plenty to go around.

bloatedwhitetruck May 19, 2010 at 7:20 pm

Arizona is a dump, populated by guvment, god fearing born-agains and back sliding titty bar attendees. Folks here were the horrid spawn of depression-era Okies who didn’t have the “figuring” skills to navigate the last 300 miles of desert to the promised land.

I live in Phoenix and we recently had to up and move from our stucco shack to a more secure location because some bat shit crazy meth addled fundamentalist, kept yelling at me clamining he had “evidence” I was breaking into this house and stealing his chemicals. Even called Mr. Popo on me and filed a report stating, I was filming pornographic movies at his home, whilst he was away.

No doubt these crazy fucks will try and rally a boycott of San Diego. My recommendation for all of these righteous asshats is to boycott San Diego and summer in Quartzite, Az. Nice group of people there. “Come as you are” type of place.

Come on, Angeleans! Reduce your power consumption by 25% and say adios to Arizona’s candy. It’s a win-win situation, plus no cavities.

Actually there is a titty bar called “Candy Store” just down the street.

I drive that way often and often see tired hobags sitting out in the parking lot after the lunch crowd. Tired hos working on the ciggie, energy drink and texting. Lots of texting.

Can’t wait to see how those folks are going to feel about their boycott of San Diego when the ol’ mercury start getting up there in July…

smellyal8r May 19, 2010 at 7:48 pm

Why sure, I’m positive all the Arizona power companies that are raking in millions off California residents would be more than happy with Commissioner Dipstick’s plan. Sheer genius. Closed power plants are great for business. And, btw, more than several of those plants are on Indian reservations and I imagine those folks have a few thoughts on “illegal immigrants”.

Man, sure would be awful if something happened the Central Arizona Project.

You gonna back that thing up or should I push up on it?

Bruno May 19, 2010 at 7:56 pm

Arizona should actually go through cutting of LA’s power – as this will probably create even more of a job-loss spiral in the state.

(PS, nobody tell them that electricity is fed into a grid)

bloatedwhitetruck May 19, 2010 at 7:57 pm

Mercury will be up above 100 this Friday. By July people are psychotic, lots of officer involved shootings, roll-overs on our freeways, house fires and mass hallucinations. We even saw ourselves a UFO craft once.

I wish he said the candy store only sold white chocolate.

from Janice Hahn, LA city councilwoman:

“Commissioner Gary Pierce is the Forrest Gump of Arizona politics… He also doesn’t understand that the Colorado River water originates from the Rocky Mountains in Colorado and that the ‘Law of the River’ was signed nearly 100 years ago and is administered by the federal government.”

Seriously, making I-8 a toll road west of Yuma could do a lot for California’s budget deficit. When I lived in Phoenix, San Diego was just too teeming with the Maricopa County retards I wanted to escape from to call it a vacation. Luckily most of them couldn’t read a highway map well enough to reach Santa Barbara or Santa Cruz.

“There’s no earthly way of knowing
Which direction we are going
There’s no knowing where we’re rowing
Or which way the river’s flowing
Is it raining?
Is it snowing?
Is a hurricane a-blowing?

Not a speck of light is showing
So the danger must be growing
Are the fires of hell a-glowing?
Is the grisly reaper mowing?
Yes! The danger must be growing!

For the rowers keep on rowing!
And they’re certainly not showing!
Any signs that they are slowing!

Y’all really need to read the “Arizona suburban lamers” article. Much as I admire Our Editor, “lamers” is totally inadequate to describe the specimen on display.

Or as Richard Holland, Haley’s father, put it: “They loan us their city for a couple of months, we pay them to enjoy it, we leave. It’s a nice deal.”

All the economic support, Mr. Holland suggested, justifies any inconvenience he and his lot may impose. “When I cut across seven lanes of traffic to make that exit in 100 yards or less, I figure my Arizona plates give me diplomatic immunity,” he said.

Also, there’s a big picture of M. Holland, Mlle. Holland, and an unidentified woman whose tits are about to flop out onto the deck.

Also also, the article is from 2007. I wonder how ol’ Dick Haulin’ is doing these days.

They act the same way when they’re at home. I lived all over this country from New Jersey to Washington before moving to Tucson a couple of years ago. And I can safely say that I’ve never seen more people with overactive feelings of entitlement (and the firepower to enforce it) than I’ve found among the white residents of Arizona.

The writer of this article must be the most ignorant person in this country. Maybe this person prefers MS13 gangs, drug smuggling and people smuggling through our states but I do not. This Arizona law mimicks existing federal Law and has absolutely nothing to do with racism. However, racism seems to be the card that is initially thorn out there by all the morons such as the writer of this article. You can call me a racist all you want, but I will stand by my convictions that you are a traitor to this nation. Read the polls you idiot: A majority of Americans support this legislation and Arizona. These polls are of real people who will enact the vengance upon those elected officials denouncing us at the next elections. I still cannot get the image out of my head regarding “our” president kissing the hind end of the Mexican President in the White House. Maybe you like that image but I certainly do not. Maybe you like Mrs. Obama exploiting a young child on TV pertaining to that child stating she was worried her mom was going to be sent away, but I certainly do not. These tactics are despicable and disgusting and they are being exhibited by our current White House tenants. Arizona had the cohones to be the first to stand up and say with a loud voice, “NO MORE”. What have you cowards done?? You would prefer to grant amnesty to the entire world and give our country away to whomever….you deserve not to be here. And my prayer is that it becomes a reality for you.
