Keep the anti-social freedom ball rolling, now we liberal Democrats are gonna ban horses within New York. Finally someone is doing something about this, I'm glad we finally made the jump from regulations to bans, it takes courage to MAKE people do the right thing.

"The horse-drawn carriages that clip clop around Central Park could be banned under City Council legislation to be introduced at the urging of animal advocates who say the horses are treated inhumanely.

Councilman Tony Avella, who plans to introduce the bill next Wednesday, said the horses that have entertained tourists and New Yorkers for decades are exposed to cruel conditions and are at risk of injury or death as they weave through city traffic."

Is Dano drunk? These actually seem like the posts of someone who is on an out and out bender?
I decided to become a Liberal now, O queen of the libs, hence the name Liberano.
I'm supposed to be cheering this horse ban that we Liberal Democrats are gunning for in New York, no? Let me know the official DNC plan if I have something not right.

Thanks, your pal,
Liberano

Ohhh, I thought it was a play on "Barbarino".

I really don’t know anything about this proposed ban, but I have read in the past, that those horses are treated very badly. So I’d be interested in hearing both sides of this.

Are you for animal cruelty? Or just apathetic about it, and not interested in hearing the details because it just doesn’t matter to you?
 
I swear, if the bicycle was invented yesterday---somebody with no life of their own (must mind everybody elses business) and nothing to do would try to get them banned.

It's a damn good point, I've thought the same thing myself. The Liberal Democrats have always had a Ludditical reaction to anything new, like trying to ban cell phones, SUVs and Walmart.
Now they try to ban things that have been around forever.
They're almost averaging a new ban a day. This is supposed to be the land of freedom.

Hmm makes them sound conservative...

Has even one of the various "bans" you have posted about even been passed by a single legislative body?
 
I don't really remember any proposed ban on cell phones or Wal-Mart...

Good point, they just do devious shit like pass regulations that only affect Walmart:

"Maryland lawmakers yesterday approved legislation that would effectively require Wal-Mart to boost spending on health care, a direct legislative thrust against a corporate giant that is already on the defensive on many fronts nationwide. "

As for cell phone bans, there are many for when driving, yet they don't ban eating or playing with the radio while driving even though those cause more accidents. Why? Because cell phones are new and lefties are suspicious and hate new things, unless of course they piss off social Cons like stem cell research.
