Everyone deserves the chance to make their own decisions.
So yeah, that was pretty stupid. If someone wants to drink a certain type of drink, they should be allowed the opportunity. It's their life, nobody else's.

If people want to drink unhealthy shit... LET THEM! It doesn't have any sort of negative effect on society, does it? Are people getting hurt as a result from people drinking a 24 oz. Monster? NO.

Pretty much this

If they want to ban sugary drinks because it's bad for people...they should ban smoking.

This is what happens when regulators get too much power.
I wonder if Mayor Bloomberg and his leftist policies like this will get him reelected. NYCs really liberal, but I bet they still like their coca cola.
