Proposition 65 The Left's War on Science

Post by _DoubtingThomas »

California judge said Starbucks coffee must have a cancer warning. As potholer54 says "unfortunately the law doesn't necessarily conform to scientific norms or common sense". In his new video potholer54 does a great job in debunking this ridiculous ruling.

Proposition 65 is a bad law because it is a distraction from warning labels that actually matter.

There is more acrylamide in the BYU date night favorite of a plate of cookies served with two glasses of wholesome milk.

AC/DC learn a new chord!! Awesome.

But yeah, that sounds crazy. The label should just tell customers not to eat the cup.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

The problem with Prop 65 warnings (and other similar endeavors) is that once you have enough warning signs, they become meaningless. Those signs are absolutely everywhere.

Exactly! Prop 65 is doing more harm than good.
