Jet Pack Ruiners, Toy Gun Grabbers, Eco ATM Luddites (Nanny of the Month, 7-14)

In July, police promise confrontations will happen if one town doesn't ban the open carry of guns... toy guns. And in Oakland, California going green and making green just got a bit more difficult with a ban on "Eco ATMs" that offer cash payouts for old electronics and which local city officials say incentivize cell phone theft. But this month's top dishonor goes to the Newport Beach city council, which has prohibited new businesses in the "water jet pack" industry from opening along the shoreline.
