An you imagine drinking with a metal straw in the car in LA roads. One good pothole and the straw goes through the top of your mouth.

in the old days they had paper straws sealed in wax, i guess thats what they will have to go to, otherwise bamboo shoots

They make biodegradable straws that are pretty indistinguishable from plastic. Not sure why every one is acting like paper straws are the only alternative. LINK

Not likely from straws, but plastic causes cancer and other bad health conditions such as messing with hormones any ways. More of an issue if it’s heated up I think. I’m not hip enough on the matter though. I try to avoid it as much as possible but I will drink cold drinks with a plastic straw.

Oh for frick sake! Come on man...

I guess all doctors and hospitals missed the memo on that, with all the plastic devices and equipment being used.

Leaux Country, you're trying too hard to twist this discussion into a matter of party affiliation. This isn't a republican vs democrat matter.

And I beg to differ on your point of rural areas being more trashy than the city.

I am not insinuating that conservatives litter for pleasure, I am just saying that they don't take it seriously as evident by most of this thread.
Very few (if any) in this thread have made replies that indicated they didn't care. If anything, you went on a preemptive attack accusing conservatives of being a certain way. Again, you're the one instigating the political angle. I'll talk all day about the problem, but stop the dumb shite with the politics.

I wouldn't call it preemptive considering his comment was not the first political barb. In fact, the first team politics comment in the thread was "fricking libs".

Y'all know, that a plastic straw is a outstanding killing weapon in the right hands. Can't do it with a paper one.

And if you ask how, I would have to kill you.

I've never gotten the point of using straws.

I get using the little ones for stirring purposes, but never to drink from.

Podnuh, I did not show up until page 5 of this thread and the attack on Libs and their environmental B.S started way before that. So take your selective reading back to your fruity pebbles box and carry on!

Banning plastic straws seems like a shot across the bow to 4-year-olds everywhere.
