Kaliporniastan strikes yet again. It’s a wonder there’s any intelligent life left there.

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.

Waiter? Not waitresses too? This proposed law is so sexist.

Yeah, we need to cut back on straw usage. But come on ... $1k fine?! And the left call Trump “nazi”?!

Straw regulations? No wonder residents are baling.

Don’t know. I haven’t lived there since 1997, and am I glad about that. I even hate going there to visit my family.

I loved my city, too, and visited at last once a month until it went fag and rogue.

Left in 1965.

Foretunately, most of my family I actually cared about are no longer alive.

California has become nucking futz!

Is it time to set up border checkpoints and a visa program?

I agree there is not much freedom left in California. It is turning in the combination 3rd World & Orwellian society.

Why not just charge $1000.00 per straw? That would stop those evil straw users!

I think the best idea is for the state of California to require that a license be applied for, and that all applicants be subject to a seven day waiting period, before being able to get their hands on a plastic straw.

If it saves the life of even one child, it will be worth it...

Understand, California lawmakers would literally fine you for wiping too many times if they could.

Very unlikely.
Most of them, particularly fagtown, as a rule don't wipe at all; haven't for decades!

So, what are you in for?

I gave a straw to a kid with his chocolate milk.
