According to wiki, the oldest drinking straw in existence was found in a Sumerian tomb dated 3,000 B.C.E., was a gold tube inlaid with the precious blue stone lapis lazuli.

So was this the murder weapon?

The problem there is straws in the water, not the straws themselves.

You really are a blithering right-wing religious misanthrope who doesn’t give a shlt about anything because it’s all going to end soon and Jesus will save you.

You know, I've put up with a lot of abuse on this site over the years, but I have to say, this is the last straw! 😠

I'm sorry, but this is just sick.

Now the far right radical extremists are promoting plastic straws to our children as somehow being fun?

Really?

As usual, you are lying again. The problem is to much plastic being thrown away, not straws; but of course you have to make it out as some big democratic conspiracy against straws. You're a worthless lying idiot who cannot have an adult conversation about much; including pollutants that are destroying our oceans and planet. The sad part is, you don't care because you will not be here to reap the disasters that we are leaving our grand children and great grand children; and, you don't want to do a damn thing about that because you don't care. Well, glad to tell you that there are people who will and are doing something about it loser boy. You want something to suck on, call Mott,Tom Wolsey, or some other worthless conservative. I'm sure they will help you out.

PawnDavid, you need to find out where the plastic is actually coming from, travel through Asia and you'll see rivers and streams are literally dumping ground, it's not from a few straws going to the land fill in the US.

Banning straws in the US because of what is happening somewhere else is control freak power tripping, nothing more.

Queen Wajoma, much plastic gets into our oceans from litter off our beaches on lakes, rivers,oceans, and street drainage systems. Anything that gets into our drainage systems gets flushed into our rivers and then enters our oceans. Every time it rains, plastic garbage from streets and gutters floats down our sewage drains into our Major rivers that flow into the oceans. Most lakes have rivers or creeks that enter and exit the lakes that then enter into our major rivers which enter into the oceans. Yes, some country's are worse than others. However, we are still part of the problem Queen wajoma. There are also many other major causes queen wajoma. However, we need to start somewhere oh queenie boy. BTW, our rivers and oceans were major dumping grounds for most of the US raw waste until less than 80 years ago; and, they still are are for treated waste. Ever heard of the "Dead Zone" in the Gulf of Mexico; It's almost as big as the state of New York and nothing grows or lives there due to the chemicals from our treated waste coming out of the Mississippi river; Oh queenie wajoma.

Western countries can hardly call on the Asians to stop dumping plastics in rivers if they haven't already done so themselves.
