BAN IT ALL! Let God Sort it Out...

5 years ago

If you could ban one thing (that is currently legal) what would it be? If you could legalize something currently banned, what would it be?

For me, I would ban cell phones and mp3/cd players in the classroom. I've heard all the arguments, but the fact is, they have no purpose being there. The only thing they do is disrupt the class or prevent the student from learning.

I would legalize (or at least remove the ban) on motorcycle helmets for adults. I know how dangerous motorcycles can be, and (having been a paramedic) I've seen first hand the injuries that can result from not having a helmet. Guess what, we all know! I know the smart thing to do is to wear one, but if we are going to legislate wisdom we'll have to ban almost everything that causes injury and death.

Ok, your turn, have at it!

I agree with the cell phones and mp3 players in the classroom. They are there to learn, not talk on the phone and listen to music.

I would ban the ability of able bodied people getting the welfare and disability benefits. Those lazy S.O.B.'s make it harder for the people that really need it to get it.

I would the bans on all of the so called bad or unhealthy things that so many people want to control, such as smoking.

If a nonsmoker comes up and demands I put my cigarette out, I will...IN THEIR EYE!

I am paying the taxes on my habits, so all others can kindly SHUT UP about my smoking, or feel my wrath.

Well Destiny, it seems you are the only one who wanted to play. While think smoking is a pretty stupid thing to do, I agree with you on the ban happy climate we're in. Personally, I think it should be up to the business owner/manager to decide what legal activities and products are appropriate on THEIR private property.

Smoking is about all I have left to enjoy. Being disabled and housebound kinda puts a big crimp in chasing women and all that other fun stuff. So I sit here, smoke my smokes and get rowdy with all of the anti war anti Bush idiocy that is running so rampant these days. What can I say? You takes your fun where you can.
