The (now former) mayor of the town of Hudson, Ohio used a slippery slope argument to link ice fishing to prostitution. Mayor Craig Shubert claims that allowing ice fishing in public parks will lead to ice fishing shacks being built, which will inevitably lead to prostitutes frequenting these “shanties”, thus getting the police involved and using up taxpayer funds.

Mayor Craig Shubert of Hudson, Ohio, made his comments at a council meeting this week during a discussion about the safety and liability issues that might arise if the city allows ice fishing at Hudson Springs Park. “If you open this up to ice fishing, which while on the surface, it sounds good, then what happens next year? Does somebody come back and say, ‘I want an ice shanty in Hudson Springs Park for X amount of time?’” Shubert asked. “And if you then allow ice fishing with shanties, then that leads to another problem: prostitution. And now you have the police chief of the police department involved. Just some data points to consider.”” *** The largest online progressive news show in the world.
