In California, Umbrellas Prevent Cancer and Cause It American Council on Science and Health

Right now nearly every little thing sucks. It can get mighty depressing, reading about COVID 19 deaths or civil unrest. So let's have some fun!A jiffy of mindless idiocy at the rate of California. Why now?Because their officials decided that my patio umbrella stand is gonna give me cancer. There's even a label to prove it.

And if you act now, you'll get some really bad "artwork!" So, let's as a substitute have some fun instead at the fee of California's Proposition 65, in all probability the largest joke of a law that you will ever see. I have had some fun with Prop 65 ago. For example, See Should California Put A Warning Label On Your Penis?or When Crazy Meets Crazier: California Wants To Label Tylenol A Carcinogen. Also, my esteemed colleague, Dr. garden shade cloth home depot , takes a shot at the law here.

Do you see how stupid here is?That umbrella stand has a similar chance of giving anyone cancer as I do taking a bubble bath with Susan B. Anthony in Macy's window on July 32nd. Because of the banning of lead paint and leaded fuel, blood lead levels have dropped like a rock in the last 60 years in the US. We are far safer from lead poisoning than ever before. With the exception of umbrella stands, I guess. No, the stupid umbrella stand isn't going to do anything to me whatsoever, yet if a California brand or company, large or small, inadvertently fails to slap on a nugatory label on a wonderfully safe product they can pay dearly, because of the vipers bounty searching lawyers who implement Prop 65 by use of predatory complaints that advantage no one except themselves.

What a joke.
