jlmiracle 7 #1 January 29, 2004 Taken off CNN - offbeat stories MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota (AP) -- "Go before you go." That's the slogan under consideration for a new campaign in Minneapolis to combat public urination. The bar business is thriving in the city's Warehouse District, and many patrons are apparently leaving with a full bladder. The Downtown Minneapolis Neighborhood Association plans to spend $10,000 in an effort of convince patrons to use the bar restrooms before they call it a night. The association's Kim Motes calls public urination a nuisance crime, that makes a mess of their neighborhood. Public urination is also a civil crime punishable by an $80 fine. judyBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

That is funny, but I don't think it would work during a Minnesota winter. I lived there for 29 years and I used to see people pee mostly in the parking ramps or the elevators in the parking ramps. I never realized it was "serious" problem. JudyBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
