You're as irresistible (I think that's what you're trying to write) as the other 325 million people who live here.
Personally, I'm perfectly okay if you shoot smack straight into your eyeball (and in this case I mean specifically you). I'm not okay with it if you're a 9 year old and a stupid adult is making that decision for you.
Forgive the spelling error. Public schools strike again!
Send me some tax money and I'll catch up on my learnin'.
Practice rounds of testing stool samples will take place at Venice Beach and Hollywood Blvd. Plenty of free samples all over the place there.
There were lots of samples in Orange County’s Santa Ana riverbed too .
I guess we should thank the homeless for all that scientific material ..
5,279 pounds of fecal matter . How disgusting is that sentence ...

— The Orange County Public Works department says 404 tons of debris has been removed from a former homeless encampment where more than 700 people lived until they were recently moved to motels and other housing.
Debris including 13,950 needles and 5,279 pounds of fecal matter and other human waste was found along the roughly two-mile stretch of bike trail roughly from I-5 in Orange to Ball Road in Anaheim, the Orange County Register reports.

we just went from taking soda off of a kids menu to killing retail jobs?
Nobody has much enthusiasm for retail jobs; but in the post-industrial, personal-service-oriented world the nanny-staters want, its most of what's available (save in the ever-expanding bureaucracy of which they dream of being an important part).

Because power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
The proper role of government (at any level) is to police a uniform set of standards (things like weights and measures), to provide a common defense against well-identified threats (natural, criminal or foreign hostile) and to allow settlement of disputes between individuals via impartial courts; That is All, at least in theory.
In the real world, like most "small l" libertarians, I'm wiling to go somewhat further; nothing wrong with keeping liquor (and "soft" drugs, for that matter) out of the hands of people under age 18) and I don't have a problem with a "safety net" -- provided it's locally policed and the habitual abusers are readily identified and made known to the community.
And as for the rabble contaminating the worst of our streets, they need to be rounded up, temporarily confined, and offered a not-too-pleasant choice between taking responsibility for their lives, or a secure-but-menial existence on society's dime. A mature, post-industrial society can easily afford this, if it has the resolve to draw a hard line, and stick to it.
The rest is none of the do-gooders' concern; if you seek absolute security, I know a place where you can get it -- it's ten feet long, three feet wide, and six feet deep.
