RUSH: Have you seen this story? \u201cMetal Drinking Straw Fatally Impales Women Through Her Eye After a Fall<\/a> — A retired jockey \u2013\u201d What are you laughing at in there? This is not a laughing matter. There\u2019s a serious effort to save the planet by getting rid of plastic straws. And this woman was only trying to follow the dictates of the climate change crowd.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>No plastic straws for her. She went out there and got a metal drinking straw to save the planet. This was a noble effort. This woman had bought hook, line, and sinker everything she had heard from the American left about how she and her buddies with plastic straws and brown paper bags at the grocery store are literally destroying the planet. So she went and got a metal one.<\/p>\n

\u201cA retired jockey died when she fell onto an eco-friendly metal drinking straw –\u201d USA Today, this is what it says. It was not just a metal drinking straw. It was eco-friendly, meaning left-wing eco-policies kill human beings who are destroying the planet and trying to save it.<\/p>\n

“A retired jockey died when she fell onto an eco-friendly metal drinking straw which impaled her eye, an inquest heard. Elena Struthers-Gardner, 60, who was known as \u2018Lena,\u2019 suffered brain injuries in the accident at her home in Broadstone, England. She was carrying a mason-jar style drinking glass with a screw-top lid in her kitchen when she collapsed. The 10-inch stainless steel straw entered her left eye socket and pierced her brain.”<\/p>\n

She was fatally injured at her home on the evening of Nov. 22. We\u2019re just hearing about this now.<\/p>\n

“In a statement read out by the coroner, her wife of four years Mandy Struthers-Gardner said she hadn\u2019t heard the fall.” Her wife, Mandy Struthers-Gardner, another hyphenated name.<\/p>\n

Sacramento County. Are you ready for this? \u201cSacramento County Says It\u2019s Illegal to Work on Your Own Car in Your Own Garage.\u201d A new law in Sacramento County is essentially stating: \u201calmost any auto repair you do on your property is illegal.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is gonna depopulate Rio Linda! In Rio Linda their cars are on concrete blocks in the front yard, never-ending repairs. It\u2019s actually a lifestyle in Rio Linda. And now that is a violation of law throughout the county.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It says here this is deeply troubling to almost everyone in Sacramento County. \u201cThe laws in question have to do with Sacramento\u2019s Zoning Code, the website for which has an explanation of the codes related to auto repair.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe code states that conducting \u2018minor vehicle repair\u2019 or \u2018minor automotive repair\u2019 is legal at a residence, and defines \u2018minor automotive repair\u2019 as brake part replacement, minor tune-ups.\u201d Anything other than that, you are in violation of the law to try to work on your own car. Do these mechanics have a lobby now? What?<\/p>\n
