California City Issues Internet Cafe Moratorium
DarkZero writes: "The Sacramento Bee is reporting that the City Council of Garden Grove, California has issued a 45 day moratium on internet cafes following a fatal stabbing and several other crimes, with the justification that internet cafes are "improperly supervised environments" that very large groups of minors frequent daily (mostly to play games), and that a lot of gang violence has cropped up because of this. Another new restriction is that minors may not stay in any internet cafe past 8PM on a school night, though it isn't clear whether or not that restriction will be lifted after the 45 day period." The New York Times has a similarly breathless story, emphasizing the violence of games played at such cafes.
I'm wondering why the management allows this clientele into the cafe's to begin with...
Quit griping. You can vote can't you? Just vote for someone who supports your rights as an adult.
Psych! No one cares about you. Most 18-year-olds are dirt broke, ergo, they have no political power. Bwah-hah-hah-hah!

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
