New Restrictions on Parking Near Bush* Ranch

[kskiska]

McLennan County Commissioners voted 4-1 Tuesday in favor of an ordinance to extend restrictions on parking or stopping on nearly 25 miles of roads near the President’s Central Texas ranch.

The ordinance stems from complaints about the anti-war protesters who gathered alongside a rural McLennan County roadside during the President’s August vacation.

Remaining protesters argued that the restriction is unconstitutional, but commissioners rejected the claim, although Commissioner Joe Mashek did cast a lone vote against the ordinance because of concerns about constitutionality.

A second measure that would prohibit erecting tents or portable toilets along roadways was tabled until next week.

3. And what about the people who drive like bats out of hell

trying to intimidate the people parked by the side of the road in Crawford? Or the ones who drag a chain from the back of their truck to destroy a roadside memorial? Or the locals who drink beer and fire their guns in the air to intimidate those people parked by the side of the road?

Will the county commission be concering itself with these issues as well? :eyes:
