I have become so enthralled with life in SF, that I looked up what is currently banned in SF with the former post about the current push to ban circumcision ? Lots of personal choice, huh?
1. Happy Meals
Or more specifically,
toys in Happy Meals. But, what kind of Happy Meal doesn’t include a toy?
2. Segways
Segways are not allowed on sidewalks or bike paths because the mayor of San Francisco thought they promoted laziness.
3. Plastic Bags
Plastic
bags are currently not allowed at large chain supermarkets and drug
stores, but they are considering expanding the ban to all stores.
4. Soda
Soda and juice drinks with no real fruit juice cannot be sold from vending machines on city property.
5. Firearms in Advertisements
Advertisements in San Francisco cannot “promote the use of firearms or advocate any violent action.” The poster for
The Other Guy had
all the weapons removed just for San Francisco’s Muni system last summer.
6. Baby Animals
It’s illegal to sell baby chickens, ducks, and rabbits in San Francisco.
7. Arizona
As
a protest to the state’s strict immigration policies, city employees
(except for police officers investigating a crime) are not allowed to
travel to Arizona.
8. Bottled Water
City money cannot be used to purchase bottled water and it cannot be sold from vending machines on city property.
9. Smoking
Tobacco
cigarettes are not allowed to be smoked in buildings, and clove
cigarettes are not permitted to be sold in the city at all.
10. Sitting
In order to curb aggressive panhandling, San Francisco outlawed sitting on the street between the hours of 11pm and 7am.
