So long California....don’t come back now ya hear?!?

[rocksblues]

Great. Now they can use those bags from China with the lead paint.

[television is just wrong]

makes me laugh, fools.

[digger48]

so it’s the bags that pollute and not the pigs that infest their urban landscape?

[Argus]

All the supermarkets switched to plastic bags because the green fascists complained that paper bags were a waste of trees. Now we’re back to paper bags. Until they ban those too. Our liberal elite won’t be happy until we’re carrying our groceries home in our bare hands. On the bus. Running at 4 mph on solar panels.

More jobs for work starved washington state.
Port Townsend should start receiving orders soon.
Although I don’t like action like this, there are winners when ever a law is passed.

[ml/nj]

They are what we call in our county urban tumbleweed

Don't they have littering laws?

LA County has a $500 million+ budget deficit and they’re spending time and resources on outlawing plastic bags! They can carry their groceries home in the same hand basket in which they are going to hell.

[NYTexan]

While I agree with the ban because I hate to see them all over the countryside, the extra charge for paper bags is ridiculous!

That used to be part of the cost of doing business. At least the paper breaks down pert fast...

These left wing idiots are the same ones who insisted, a few years ago, that we just HAD to switch to plastic in order to save the trees, the bad, terrible paper bags were wiping out the trees of the world and we had to go to plastic. Now, plastic is bad, according to them, and we need to go back to paper or cloth, both or which take trees to make. Unintended consequences or just a matter of running out of things to outlaw in order to take our freedom from us?

One thing for sure, every time they do something like this it just proves how mentally ill the left wing dumb a**es are.

[MissyMack66]

WOW, that will only lead to massive store closings. Yev Z. is most certainly a communist - probably right out of the USSR.

[SkyDancer]

Didn’t they start off saying to use plastic instead of killing trees for paper bags .... how soon will they ban plastic bottles?

[mel]

I don’t care for plastic bags myself

[oyez]

If grocers choose to offer paper bags, they must sell them for 10 cents each, according to the ordinance. The revenue will be retained by the stores to purchase the paper bags and educate customers about the law.

Words fail me. California must have the poorest excuses for state and local government since Medieval times

[blkmontecarlo]

I never did like plastic bags, so I use paper. I wonder why they are charging .10 for the paper bags?

FYI Trader Joe’s has great reusable bags.

[Cinnamon Girl]

The schools are a disaster, the city is in a financial shambles, they outlawed watering our lawns regularly so there’s a lot of brown grass around in the summer, their squandering tons of cash on a commuter rail that no one will use, and now they want to make us use dirty bags from China instead of clean disposable plastic ones. WHY WHY WHY?

[FrankR]

That's Great! Just the breakthough we've been waiting for.

OK, all you military types, just go on home. Disband the Congress.

Cancel TSA and the Immigration department.

Sell all the bombs and weapons to some third world country.

Start driving 9 mpg cars again, and strip all that smog equipment off, it robs horsepower.

Knock down all those windmills and burn all of the "global warming" literature.

We don't need any of these things anymore for California has BANNED F***ING PLASTIC BAGS.

The world's dangers are now, officially over.

Just saw the other day a scientist that had a small countertop device that he tossed a bunch of plastic bags and other plastic parts into, screwed the lid down, and the plastic melted, was heated to gas, run through a water condenser on the other side and got clean oil. I think he said 3kg of plastic yielded 1 liter of oil. He’s further been able to refine that oil to gas, kerosene ,etc.

It’s out on youtube I believe.

[Wagonboy]

That should fix everything that's wrong here in the land of fruits, nuts, commies, illegals, environmental wackos, the light-in-the-loafers set and the state employee union leeches. I've always said, “If only California could do away with the plastic grocery bag..... It would be perfect”. Good job Sacramento. That's why you all get the big bucks and wise individuals keep reelecting you.

I used to work in LA. These three are the biggest left wing A-holes around.

We use those plastic bags to line our under-the-sink trash containers. So, all those bags end up in the landfill. So now, folks like us who live in LA County will have to buy plastic trash liners.

What is funny is that the percentage of folks who live in unincorporated LA County is small compared to those living in all of the incorporated cities.
