GETTING L.A.

[Jerry D Mead]

PHYLLOXERA to the city of Los Angeles and its Mayor Richard Riordan for forgetting about a thing called the First Amendment by passing an ordinance banning outdoor advertising for wine (and beer and spirits)...even though an almost identical ordinance in Chicago was rejected by a Federal District Court. One can't help but wonder how much it will cost taxpayers to try to defend this obviously unconstitutional law.
