    why do people get up in arms over stuff like this?
    who wants to patronize a place that doesn't want you?

    could the martini drinking mom who breast feeds her child at the bar be charged with serving a minor?

    Isn't there a thread for this topic already? Or do you require two threads to display your self-righteousness?

    Good article. Lays out both sides of this argument well.

    And on Hamilton's "joke": the woman said she breastfed the kid BEFORE the martini. So the joke falls flat.

    i don't believe that there is a thread on this article; i checked before i posted it.

    self righteous? here's how i see it: there are self righteous stroller moms, there are self righteous kid haters, there are self righteous people who would like to spend their bar hours child-free. i'm the latter, among the three, i'm likely less hostile. having a strong opinion and being able to share it are currently my rights under this administration. calling people names, however, isn't a right on this board. with that i bid adieu.
