Lets be honest. Nanny statism breeds contempt, not compliance.
I don't recall ever having foie gras but I must say I'm tempted to go to Connie's Pizza myself to try one of their pizzas topped with the illicit organ. Is this what the Chicago aldermen worry about? Though the law went into effect yesterday (8-22-06) enforcement won't begin until today.
“The city gave them a day of fun, but tomorrow we’ll see what happens,” said Joe Moore, the alderman who proposed the ban, adding that the method by which foie gras is produced — force feeding ducks and geese through a pipe inserted into their throats — is clearly animal cruelty.
Sounds like the UN dealing with Iran. Talk tough while pretending not to notice the thumbed nose.
