Bill To Ban Swearing in Bars
by Steve
Tuesday, January 08, 2008
Imagine heading out to your favorite biker bar, only to find the speech cops there to make sure no one says any naughty words.
That's what a city councilman in St. Charles, MO wants to accomplish. He submitted a bill that would make it illegal for people to use "cuss words", as well table-dancing, drinking contests, and "profane music".
He says the bill is needed to keep rowdy crowds under control because the historic downtown area gets a little too lively on some nights.
Obviously the cops don't have the personnel to staff each bar every evening, but what this law will do is allow them to slap some extra charges on you, and make you never want to come back again.
"We're dealing with adults here once again and I don't think it's the city's job or the government's job to determine what we can and cannot play in our restaurant," said Marc Rousseau, owner of a bar in St. Charles.
Too bad the city doesn't host any big biker rallies, they could sure rack up some huge income with this law.
The city council plans a meeting to discuss the proposal for January 14.

Harley's Politically Correct Gift Catalog
by Steve
Friday, November 17, 2006
Browsing through Harley's "Holiday Gift Catalog" it seems that they've gone all out towards marketing to the RUBs out there.
After all, RUBs have all the money.
Lots of pink stuff, and bling bling stuff, and stuff that seems to be leathered-out versions of GAP gear.
But I can't believe Harley wimped out to the PC cops by eliminating the word "Christmas" from their gift catalog. WTF? You mean the "motor company" is too scared to piss off the liberals?
