There was a post floating around facebook a few days ago where a person suggested that for those who reach retirement but can't afford to live in a $7,000 a month retirement home on their $1,000 a month social security that they should instead buy a $300 gun and shoot one politician. This way it removes one politician from our society and the retiree gets 3 hots and a cot for the rest of his/her years. Win, win..

I'm beginning to like the idea.

In California you can now grown and buy pot, but if a waiter who serves a drink with an unrequested straw in it would face up to 6 months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.

This isn't a law yet. It is just something put forth by one crackpot. Somehow, I have a feeling this won't be passing, but stranger things have happened.

I hate to say it but its a good law that protects the environment from unnecessary waste...I do not agree with the 6 months jail shit, there should be some minor monetary fine...it would be a good law to pass IMO...

This part of the article made me giggle;

The Los Angeles Times has gotten behind the movement, endorsing straws-on-request policies in an editorial that also warned that "repetitive sucking may cause or exacerbate wrinkles on the lips or around the mouth."

This is just common sense. Straws are bad for the environment, so let's make a law to stop us from using straws. In fact, we did this with plastic bags. Again, common sense. At first I was annoyed. How can I get my stuff to the car without a bag? Eventually you learn to carry your own bags.

They aren't going to fine a waiter for serving a drink with straws. However, they will fine a restaurant owner if they continue to offer up straws without being asked.

You blink at being fined 1k for a straw, but wouldn't notice it when a military contractor sells that same straw for 2k to the military
