All that restrictive laws do is make life miserable for law-abiding people [“B.C. government to end cordoned-off beer gardens at music festivals”, web-only]. Good for the B.C. government on this one!

If people get obnoxious, punish them, not everybody else. I maintain the idea of “Do whatever as long as you don’t bug anybody else.” We need to do away with more of this nanny-state stuff.

Coming soon to B.C.: a pint or two or three of beer with your Big Mac or Buddy Burger. Just don’t run over the kids when backing out of the parking lot.
