As a Constitutionalist, I'm not against any local governments making absurd laws such as this as long it's local governments doing it. At the local government's level, the citizenry can change the law at any election cycle they want, and those who can't will just move along with their tax dollars. I'm only against it when the federal government does (such as this new health care debacle).
What about my constitutional right to be HAPPY! Yule logs make me happy!
Screw ‘em.
This is an administrative agency “law.” — The fourth branch of government not authorized by the Constitution.
It’s also a supra-government agency not authorized at the city level — the “Bay Area Air Quality Management District” — that somehow has control over the citizens of the Bay Area and has the power to enforce its rules under color of law.
It’s an abomination. As is much of government in California.
