"Carne Asada is not a Crime"

First they went after hot dog vendors & now it's taco trucks.

From Save Our Taco Trucks:

Led by District 1 County Supervisor Gloria Molina, the L.A. Board of Supervisors has passed new restrictions that will effectively eliminate taco trucks from our streets. Under Supervisor Molina’s new rules, taco trucks will have to change location every hour, or face a misdemeanor charge carrying a $1000 fine and/or jail. Yes, jail.

Save Our Tacos has started a petition opposing the new restrictions. Sign the petition and grab dinner at a truck on Taco Truck Night (Thursday, May 1st).

I haven't heard of anyone besides Gloria Molina & Co. who is in favor of the move it or loose it law.

The LA Weekly's Jonathan Gold wrote a column, (Keep On (Taco) Trucking) in defense of the trucks.

Can't wait for my taco dinner tonight.
I would like to see the trucks stay on the streets but also be an example to the communities by going 'green', buying local, maybe not organic -- but recycle their oil for their fuel, etc
