City Council Tries To Put First-Ever “Don’t Be An Asshole” Law On The Books, Only To Find — Duh — It Has No Room To Talk
Let’s get this straight, once and for all: Philebrity wholeheartedly supports any and all laws banning the use of cell phones in automobiles. There’s just too many assholes out on the road, and most non-native drivers on the streets of Philadelphia can’t be trusted anyway. But we have a novel idea: How about City Council members not just making their own law irrespective of the rest of the state, thereby making the City’s own law unenforcable and lame? (After all, this isn’t guns we’re talking about, so it shouldn’t be a problem.) And how about some other asshole lawyer not offering to represent anyone burned by the “Don’t Be An Asshole” Law before it’s even been floated in council? Argh. Hold on, I gotta take this call. [DN]
