Wisconsin Town Seeks to Ban Cyclists, Pedestrians from Public Roads

By Rocky Thompson on December 27th, 2011

The backwater town of Hull in Wisconsin is seeking to make it illegal for pedestrians and cyclists to use public streets without first obtaining special governmental permission. The hicks on the town board cited accidents involving joggers and cyclists as the reason for the law, though an audit conducted by a local newspaper found that since 2008 there hasn’t been a single accident. I love how these idiots on town boards think they wield the power to create laws that strip away basic human and constitutional rights. While they’re on a hot streak they should also create a law that grants town board members the superpower to fly.

    It is now against the law to not burn fuel.

    How sad, it sounds like someone from Black Hawk Colorado must have moved there.
