Cop fired for Smoking a cigarette...
Off duty, at a party. Yes, folks, the fascist nanny state is at it again.
Alphecca links to the story in the Boston Globe. Apparently, the state legislature passed the law to accompany a union negotiating point on work-related disability.
My argument is not with the firing (which is likely to be upheld), but the fact that such a law exists for any reason.
We'll have to blame it on that nazi John Ashcroft. It must be his fault.
