Default One's civil rights should never be open to being changed by a ballot measure

Or legislative action. And if a simple majority is enough to change the law, it should take at least a two-thirds majority to change the constitution. An amendment to the US constitution requires first a vote of the Federal government, and then a vote of the states. Obviously California needs to tighten up it's standards.
