O.M.G. JUST WHEN I THOUGHT THIS FUCKING STATE COULDN'T GET ANY WORSE. There's a law saying it's ILLEGAL to SELL sex toys that's been in the works since 1998. But the reason it's not actually inforced and the sex stores around here are still open is because it hasn't fully been passed yet or something. There's a fight going on about whether or not ( Read more... )

I don't get the sex toy thing, that's just way too weird. Though you gotta love the random laws that make it okay to own but not to buy. Gotta wonder how people can own things if they can't buy 'em.

I like the smoking bylaws though. Ontario's had them for a few years now and you can't smoke anywhere indoors in a public building or even on a covered patio at bars and such. There was a big uproar about it at first and worries that it would effect the economy, but overall it didn't.

See, sex toys, they don't bother anyone around you but smoking does since the smoke travels and fills rooms and just smells not so pleasant.

I myself am not REALLY that bothered by the no smoking in restaurants and whatnot. What bothers me is that if the Government is allowed to infringe upon people's personal life like this by worming they're way around the constitution of this country then this state's going to inadvertently become a fucking dictatorship like in V for Vendetta. I swear to God if they could ACTUALLY get away with it, that shit would become real.

There are other states that have had such a law in place. You have to sell them as "novelties". Other places get around it, I'm sure we can too.

As for smoking, well, that started in the crunchy states. And really, restaurants I can understand. Bars.... well, that's kinda gay.
