Ohio Republican Mayor Warns Ice Fishing Leads to Prostitution


Republican Mayor Craig Shubert of Hudson, Ohio, who last fall started a huge controversy by demanding every school board member in his city resign, or be criminally charged with disseminating child pornography after high school students taking a class for college credit, which included exercises encouraging students to write stories or essays they would not share with their parents - was interpreted by Mayor Shubert as promoting “child pornography.”  Now, this week during a Hudson city council meeting, Mayor Shubert took a strong stance against ice fishing in a local park, pointing out that “If you open this up to ice fishing, while on the surface it sounds good, then what happens next year?  Does someone come back and say, ‘I want an ice shanty for X-amount of time?” he asked referring to the use of portable shelters for ice fishing.  He then added “And, if you then allow ice fishing with shanties, then that leads to another problem — prostitution,” he continued. “And now you’ve got the police chief and the police department involved.”

Wow, Mayor Shubert’s ice fishing stories are enough to really give you the chills.  I mean, who knew sitting over a freezing cold hole in the ice on some frozen lake, could make one’s mind turn to romance?  Of course, who am I to make fun of it all?  Hell, I’m originally from northern Ohio myself, and that might just describe how I was conceived.


Now, I did a little ice fishing myself back when I was in high school, and I have to say I’ve hooked onto some pretty weird shit, but I’ve never “hooked a hooker.”  I guess in Ohio, prostitutes are an “aquatic species.”  All I can say is, I must’ve been using the wrong bait!  Wonder if the Ohio Department of Fish and Game has put a limit on how many hookers you can catch this year?  Might have to throw some of them back in.


That said, I really can’t see how “ice fishing” can be linked to prostitution, unless you’re looking for “blowfish.”  Besides, since the video of this meeting went viral, many experts are now saying they think the mayor has it all wrong, and they’re pretty sure that it’s “prostitution that leads to ice fishing.”  Anyway, whatever the case, angry ice fishermen left the meeting yelling “Mayor Shubert can kiss my bass!”  And, you know what, I suspect the mayor might enjoy that.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
