    Default CALIFORNIA TO OUTLAW STRAWS

    does this mean you have to roll up a hundred dollar bill to drink your soda or can they break the tip off a needle
    found in the street and use that instead?

    just wondering.

    Please don't make comments about things you know nothng about. California DID NOT outlaw straws. Go online and read the law and then comment when you are informed.

    OK let me rephrase:
    restrict the use of straws, patrons when dining out should request one if wanted. i also saw on the news a
    waitress can be fined if she gives you one when not requested.

    how come no comment on the straw alternatives?

    I'm all-in on the idea of just gulping down a Jumbo-sized soda...


    ...and then puking it all back up!


    THAT'LL make them re-think the logic in their decision!

    What's that ??
    They want to ban straws and I.C.E ?
    As strange as NY, where they want to legalize marijuana, and outlaw soda.
    If it ain't broke, don't break it.

    Kalifornia will pay for a sex change operation if someone so wants... & they will harbor & support illegals... but they spend their time making a goofy law to limit/ban plastic straws... seems to me Kalifornia's lawmakers are about as stupid as they come.... makes me wonder about the intelligence of Kalifornia voters...

    Again uninformed response. This only applies to Full Service restaurants. Fast food establishments are not covered in the restrictions. Most full service restaurants already are using paper straws that are not covered under the restrictions. Personally the next time I use a straw in a full service Restaurant will be the first in 50 years, and in those days the straws were paper. This is much ado about nothing. Remember no one is asking you to move to California. We are doing just fine without you! You on the other hand would not be doing fine without us. Remember we are the 5th largest economy in the world! We produce most of your fresh fruit and vegetables, most of the wine in the country and most of the best craft beers. So if we decide that we can do somethings to improve on the environment, you will find that as usual we are the innovators, you are the followers, and you can look for "plastic straw" restrictions in your states in the near future! Mark my words, California is the Sheppard, the other states are the sheep!

    maybe i didn't make myself clear when i said dining out & waitress, i personally don't consider the clown as a waitress or mcdonalds as a dining out type restaurant as you californian's may. now in ny on the east end they have vineyards
    and i don't drink so i don't care and the oj i drink comes from florida. as for improving the environment i suppose you
    have to work hard at it with the smog, human waste and needles. with your 5th largest economy you need to be number 1 if you want to fund your pensions and illegals. in long island we have movie studios in nassau and queens
    that most of the marvel studio movies are filmed at including netflix marvel series.

    i am not knocking california (too much) but you really should be more informed before you make a response and don't forget prop 8 and how it's sponsors were hidden.
    understand ny & nyc and long island are no gem but we are just a little better then cali.

    Got to differ with that one Hoss. Having lived in multiple places in both states I would rank CA MUCH higher than NY and especially NYC in virtually every category. The happiest days of my life was seeing NY and VA in my rear view mirror.

    Having said that, I would move to upstate NY (think Finger Lakes) in a heartbeat if only their taxes and winters were not so onerous.

    It is all good. I for one would not live anywhere else. All states, even the Empire State have great qualities. Yep you have wineries and you make films there, and so many awesome things. I would love to spend more time in NY. Again, though everything you mention above regarding California is inaccurate. So please, comment on topics that you have some knowledge about, things you have actually experienced. I would love to hear about what makes your State really special. I think everybody on this bored would benefit from that kind of positive input fro you! Rather than random unsolicited attacks. I know you have a lot of positive going on and I would love to hear more of that!

    Default When I was younger......

    Straws were made of PAPER, I remember trying to suck a milk shake through them and having them
    collapse.
