Original post from which this has been updated:
San Francisco Outlaws Happy Meals. The End Times Are Here - TheWell
The San Francisco Mayor had promised that he would veto this statute, and he has.
Excerpts italicized:
"Parents, not politicians, should decide what their children eat, especially when it comes to spending their own money... Despite its good intentions, I cannot support this unwise and unprecedented governmental intrusion into parental responsibilities and private choices."
"He hopes some members will reconsider should it be put up for an override... One of the eight is not entirely comfortable with it and some of them are getting heat as this thing is being mocked around the world."
It should be noted that the San Franciso Board of Supervisors can veto his veto (and based on their original vote they can without problem)
Will these politicians change their minds?
Should they?
