Fiddling while Houston burns?

KUHF-88.7's Laurie Johnson reports that city council has postponed a vote on banning "pocket bikes."

Councilmember Ron Green wants the pocket bikes banned within city limits. Councilmember M.J. Kahn wants children to be banned from the bikes. Councilmember Green says age isn't the issue.

Michael Berry perhaps put it best:

Councilmember Michael Berry told his colleagues they shouldn't pass a law that city council doesn't even understand.

That's comedic.

It's good to see some of our elected officials working so hard on the real problems of the city.
