Nanny of the Month: Minnesota bans Ladies Nights
Hot Air and Reason TV ^ | July 1, 2010 | Ed Morrissey

Not one straight man ever complained - and who cares if one did?!

As an unintended consequence this will decrease revenues for bars all across the state (and consequently liquor and sales tax revenues).

This is what you get from Bitchaucrats who justify themselves using Kafkaesque logic. It discriminates against men, how, now prove it?

Someone doesn’t like a discount or a two-fer, so what’s wrong with this picture. I could guess these same Bitchaucrats also believe large club card stores discriminate against none member citizens.

Gretchen aside, the few times Ive been in Minnesota it seemed like most of the women look like a cross between Rosie O’Donnell and Elana Kagan.

They’re WAY behind the curve. Here in Massachusetts, Ladies Nights were outlawed years ago — I think during the Dukakis administration IIRC.

Staring at my screen, shaking my head in disbelief. We need to disband the Congressional Black Caucus then. Discrimination is wrong, isn’t it?

Where will it end???

Actually, there was a state case in NJ or Maryland, some years back, about the non-member prices of Gas at Sam's Club, or Costco, vs the member's price being discriminatory.
