[School of Rational Thought]

As a Detroiter familiar with the ghetto culture, excessive perfumes and cologne can nearly cease one's respiratory system, but government intrusiveness is just beyond rational.

Rump-rangers and bull dykes make me sick; where’s my $100,000 for being FORCED to have to accomodate their agenda?

[mlocher]

The signs will ask employees to "refrain from wearing scented products."

I understand why everyone wants to wear strong fragrances in Detroit. The place stinks.

[RandallFlagg]

And they said it wouldn’t happen.

“When they came for the smokers, I wasn’t a smoker, so I did nothing.”

[SandRat]

Whores and Pimps hardest hit. </ sarc

Freedom of choice is DEAD. Our society has become so damn wimpy.. First, smokers.. Now, perfume? WTF? God forbid anyone at school have a peanut allergy. Schools have banned peanuts! This is what Obamacare is all about. Stripping everyone of their rights. Marxism in it’s infancy is difficult for most to see.. But it’s right HERE in this story. Wake up America.

Wow, now see this would be a challenge for me.. because I am SO SICK of this culture of victim-hood, I would be forced to sneak in some REALLY nasty smelling cologne or perfume and spill it at random around the office.

These control freaks really tick me off. I don’t even wear the stuff and I am ticked off. If it bothers someone so bad, then work at home in a bubble. When are people going to say enough is enough.

[From The Deer Stand]

That’s what happens when Democrats are in charge. The country goes to hell in a handbasket.

Another Freeper thread ...

Detroit city workers being warned to go scentless

[School of Rational Thought]

Exactly. I decided against putting that in my comment, but I am glad you did.

[mainsail that]

Sounds like she should be offered a different position in an office somewhere, not force everyone to change for her.

[boop]

What if I’m offended by the bums at the public library and their stench. Can I sue for 100K?

[LukeL]

Can I sue my doctor because the alcohol, betadine, and developers fluid used in x-rays makes me ill?

[tsomer]

I’ve smelled shit, piss, love residue, sardines, skunks, phartz,sewage, and various non-human-species-in-love. I find none of these pleasant.

Nevertheless they do not debilitate, as do the various concoctions people slather themselves with in hopes of disguising their imagined(for the most part} olfactory insults.

Good intentions gone bad. It’s an industry.

[Foolsgold]

What about the “Fresh Country Air” that will come from the new farms and dairies in downtown Detroit?

[Farmer Dean]

Might want to stick cloves up your nose when visiting Detroit.

[Farmer Dean]

Wow,sounds like you live on a farm too.

Megyn Kelly was on O’Reilly and she said this ban prohibited scented deodorant (which most are), lotions, hair sprays....lots of products used by workers each day.

Can you imagine the popularity of this woman after this policy is implemented? I would hope they would put the most odoriferous (BO) office worker next to her from here on out.

But enough about Democratic Underground...
