Its not like the restaurants got together and said, this is a good idea, lets do it. The city councils are directing them to do it. Government taking time out of their busy days to legislate....straws...because......Turtles. Glad you're OK with that. Explains a lot
Glad to see that everything you learned in life you learned from GI Joe....explains even more.

Right and 50 years ago the textile companies in Connecticut dumped the dyes straight in the rivers and there was lead in gasoline. The companies didn't get together and say this is a bad idea, the government regulated it because it had negative impacts. The fact that your panties are in a bunch says more about you than the fact that I am ok with local governments having ordinances.

my panties arent in a bunch, I just think its one of the stupidest things I've seen in awhile.
on an I.Q. scale it falls between "Has to eat Oatmeal with a Straw" and 'Just Pull the Plug"
But, if your wish is to someday have the Government wipe your ass for you....enjoy

Stupidest just after print your own a.r. 15? I am not sure why you care what Seattle and cities in California do, but I imagine the Rush and Hannity types are getting their listeners lathered up.

But straws?
