Ouch! Mayor-elect de Blasio to abolish horse-drawn carriages; Laura Ingraham has better idea

Ah, memories! New York City and carriage rides: Who doesn’t love them? Well, you better hurry. Because NYC Mayor-elect de Blasio has decided that dastardly horse-drawn carriage rides are the most pressing issue of our time.

De Blasio to his city: Screw you and the horse-drawn carriage you rode in on. http://t.co/bRsvGBO3dd

Unreal.

It’s tradition for NYC mayors 2 ban innocent things. For Bloomberg, it was large sodas. For de Blasio, it’s carriage horses.

It’s funny, and depressing, because it’s true.

Laura Ingraham entered for the mix with a winning suggestion:

If De Blasio wanted to cut down on horse manure in Manhattan, he shd have tendered immediate resignation, not banned the carriages.
