California Considers $1,000 Fine, Jail for Waiters Offering Plastic Straws...


"Ian Calderon wants restaurateurs to think long and hard before giving you a straw.

Calderon, the Democratic majority leader in California's lower house, has introduced a bill to stop sit-down restaurants from offering customers straws with their beverages unless they specifically request one. Under Calderon's law, 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.

"We need to create awareness around the issue of one-time use plastic straws and its detrimental effects on our landfills, waterways, and oceans," Calderon explained in a press release as of July."



WHY WOULD ANY SANE PERSON LIVE THERE?

Of course with all the things that are going on in the world, the most important priorities for Dems to concentrate are what kind of straws we use, gender neutral restrooms, and helping illegals who commit crimes not get deported.

Crazy Cali is like a disease...

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

First off, this is from a blog site. Second, it says in the title that it is CONSIDERING, not that it has actually gone into law.

And finally, from the link, but you had to read all the way to the bottom.

Update: Reason spoke with Voleck Taing, a senior assistant to Assemblyman Calderon, who said they intend to amend the bill to remove the fines.

They are amending the bill to remove the fines.

That's strawnge.

 

[Silent Warrior]

When straws are outlawed only outlaws will have straws.

At least, there will be less kids shooting spit wads.

 

[WillMunny]

An illegal can get away with murder, but a waiter can be prosecuted for a straw.....there are no words.

 

[AvgGuyIA]

I am about ready to boycott any thread with the word California in it.

Read post 11. At the bottom of the OP's link, it says that the bill has been amended and the fines have been dropped out of the bill.

It's at the very bottom of the OP's link.
