Related: About this forumLunatics Insist Immigrants Are Causing California Drought
The state of California is still in one of the worst droughts in the states history, and one organization thinks that they have finally figured out who to blame for the situation. It isnt the corporations that are using water for fracking or bottling whats left to sell to the rest of the world nope, the real culprit is immigration.
This claim comes from the group California for Population Stabilization, a noted anti-immigration group in the state. They believe that population growth through both legal and illegal immigration is to blame for the lack of water in California, because, according to them, immigrants are taking away the states very limited resources.
