More Nanny State Nonsense

Got this in from Frankie 5 Angels this morning:

. . . our government is keeping us safe from ourselves. This is sureal. . . can't people think for themselves anymore?! Pretty soon it will be illegal to screw or fart!

LA is proposing a new ordinance to forbid the construction of fast food restaurants. Read more at this link to the Wall Street Journal story:

. . . Despite its health-crazy reputation, parts of Los Angeles are plagued by obesity rates that rival any city in America. Now, the city may join a growing roster of local governments aiming to put their residents on diets by cracking down on the fast-food industry.

[There are a bunch of laws that already tell one how they may or may not participate in sexual relations, so some types of sex between two consenting adults are already outlawed.

Just another way the government protects us from ourselves - because we don't know better. And Obama promises lots more of the same. Monk]
