It’s bad enough that the citizens of Clearwater, Florida can’t go to the beach and smoke weed. Listening to the waves crash down with that smoke in your lungs sure would get your mind off a lot of things. Blah blah blah playing catch is just as bad as smoking weed. And now city officials are trying to change it.
Cretekos said the idea behind the law was to give police the authority to stop a game on the beach or in a park that could possibly hurt someone else. He said he’d like to see the city narrow the law to more careless activities that could actually hurt someone. via, via.
Glad they included that language about the javelin in there. That’s terrific; it’s another ignorant law that exists just so police can enforce it whenever they feel like it. Kinda like possession of marijuana and running over construction workers.


What’s their policy on reacharounds?
People getting hurt from a game of catch? I can’t help but think Chuck Knoblauch and Rick Ankiel are involved somehow…
Good thing they didn’t specifically mention yard darts. Those things are the best!
Fun Fact: Clearwater is basically run by Scientologists.Thetans hate weed.
but I like to bring my shuttlecock to the beach…
/sorry just wanted to say shuttlecock…
@Oliver: I still have a set of those. Not only are they fun, they’re awesome for keeping daggum revenuers off-a mah prop-a-tah!
/I’m drunk.
