An Ohio mayor prompted stunned silence and then awkward laughter after warning city council that ice fishing would lead to prostitution.

Hudson mayor Craig Shubert told a council work session Tuesday evening that ice fishing shouldn't be allowed in the city because fisherman would set up ice shanties to keep warm, and he feared sex workers would set up shop inside, reported the Cleveland Scene.

"If you open this up to ice fishing, while on the surface this sounds good but what then what happens next year, does someone come back and say, 'I want an ice shanty?'" Shubert said. "If you then allow ice fishing with shanties, then that leads to another problem: prostitution. Now you've got the police chief and police department involved."

You can't make this up. It's a slippery slope out there on the ice!

8. Why are these r's so obsessed w/ sex?

Who could possibly put these two issues together if not always lurking ? Are they frustrated? Lack of sex Ed? It absolutely makes no sense with some of these people.

9. Mayor Schubert is a busy guy.

He is apparently the only thing standing between Hudson and moral oblivion.

His last crusade a few months ago:
