ALCOHOL BILLBOARDS

So now we see the city of Los Angeles wants to restrict free trade by
pushing for controls on alcohol advertising (Oct. 26). First, it was the
legal ownership of firearms and ammunition, then came cigarettes, and now
the cause du jour is alcohol.

If the lifestyle police really want to save lives - both young and old -
maybe they should start looking at the next great politically correct
threat to modern civilization: the fat in fast foods. McDonald's and Burger
King, watch out!
