Whatever it is, someone is pushing hard to have it banned!
I say: BAN EVERYTHING!!!
We should be FREE of anything that may injury us physically. Anything that may lead to the injury of someone, even if accidental, should be banned.
We should be FREE of anything that may kill us. Anything that could potentially kill us, whether it’s a food, drug, weapon, anything, should be banned
We should be FREE of anything which may insult us, or hurt our feelings, causing emotional injury. Anything now protected by the 1st amendment must be banned.
BAN EVERYTHING! So we are FREE of all risks!
After all, this is a FREE country, right?:rolleyes:
