Maybe the fines could be doubled for selling ice cream in a school zone

Throw the evil Ice Cream Lords in prison!

Chris Waterman, the executive director of the Confederation of Education and Children’s Services Managers, said ice-cream vans should be restricted. “There are millions going into healthy food in schools, yet kids are rushing to spend their money on food from mobile vans,” he said.

More than anything else in the world, I can't stand the nanny staters and their busybody selves.

God, their self-importance just grates me to no end.

re :Since you obviously do not think parents are the ones who should make such decisions, I'm curious.

When did I say that, LOL way to go to misquote me.

The article is not about banning Ice Cream, but about not letting ice cream vans tout for business outside schools.

In these cases since the parent is not around they have no choice in the matter as to whether they say yay or nay.

To do what have a Village fair, a Village Ball, or a Village to retire to.

I thought we were talking about ice cream.
