the supreme court of ohio rules common sense doesn't apply to city hall's plan to fine residents for watering lawns during a drought.
So, our tax dollars at work, folks. The court actually took time to debate whether a city can fine people for using sprinklers when the reservoir is at 20% capacity. I guess we're all supposed to just let the grass die and the foundation crack while the bureaucrats sit in their air-conditioned offices. Common sense says if it's a drought, you don't water your lawn. But no, we need a panel of judges to tell us that. My neighbor is already plotting his "rebellion" with a soaker hose after dark. This is why nothing gets done in this state.
