(AmericanThinker.com) The California legislature continues to act as the hard left's petri dish for testing totalitarian policies. AB 1678, introduced last Tuesday, would ban mobile food and beverage trucks within 1,500 feet of elementary and secondary schools. ... The "no vend" zones would look effectively prohibit mobile food trucks from almost all of California's urban and suburban cities.

Unions cafeteria goons are pushing this:
No MoochelleWich alternatives? Then da yutes have to choke ‘em down —pure unionism.
NO DRUGS
NO GUNS
NO ROACH COACHES
-Kids can’t afford meals we need school breakfast lunch and dinner.
-Canteen trucks are a danger ...to kids with no money
RAT LOGIC HURR DURR!!
This is going to be a tremendous black market opportunity.
That was my first thought. Once again, the union goons are succeeding with the "for the children" argument. Last year, they pushed through a law banning the sale of alcoholic beverages at automated check stands, saying that the law was to prevent children from buying booze. But the law seems to have been aimed at stores such as Fresh and Easy, where customers make purchases at automated check stands rather than having to stand in line to buy from unionized clerks.
venders outside of schools sounds nutz to me in the first place....great way to peddle drugs to school kids...unless I am misreading the article...never heard of this before..
Outlaw the “Roach Coach”!
How dare they!
This is all a joke. The kids beline for 7-11 or Quick Stops after school and load up on goodies. Mrs. BOzo is way out of touch.
Refried beans is a right in LA.
The minority illegal alien lobby is going to flip.
I’ve witnessed hostility among the vendors who encroach territory.
This is not going to be pretty.
It is a liberal trick, which they’ve also used to take away gun rights. 90% of most cities are within 1500 feet of a school.. It is a backdoor way to eliminate guns, or food trucks, or whatever liberals don’t like by claiming it is for school safety.
Venders just seem to be too much of a temptation to deal drugs...
Now take a look at this link which has a map of San Francisco, a very dense example, with a 1000ft radius drawn around each school. you can imagine extending that another 50% to 1500 feet, and the entire city would be off limits.
Yikes, that looks like they could use some consolidating...but then again, its California, the land of fruits and nuts....they do love to tax also....about 10 years ago my girlfriend and I went to visit her daughter in San Diego, the cost of homes is outrageous...a little 4 room bungelow was almost 1/2 millions dollars not too far from her house. It had Living, kitchen and 2 bedrooms with a sleep on back porch....about a 70,000 thousand dollar home in Michigan....I was looking at some homes to maybe move. Not at those prices...
After studying that picture, I wonder if there is an app. to get through the city with a legally owned gun...LOL
