Huh? Just recently, we had an ultralight dude crash land into an outdoor wedding reception killing himself, and (much to the bride's chagrin) several of the wedding party. His widow reported that he "loved" ultralights, and got major positive benefits from the flights. His estate is currently being sued for wrongful death... [1]
Huh? WHAT? Lacquer thinner is only supposed to be used in WELL VENTILATED AREAS CHRIS!!!!
Here Chris, this'll pretty much sum up where we're at in this disc^H^H^H^H^H, uh argum^H^H^H..
I've heard that some cities in the PRK have banned smoking anywhere in "public areas", which means even smoking outdoors (sidewalks, streets, parks etc) is illegal.
I wonder how much longer it'll be before we start seeing lawsuits against homeowners who have fireplaces? Or cooks and waitresses at BBQ restaurants suing their employers?
Yep. Having a "do not call" list is no different than putting up a "no solicitors" sign on your gate -- and prosecuting violators of the do not call list is no different than prosecuting trespassers.
Yes, "opt-in" would be the best solution. Then only those who want to receive that junk would get it, and the rest of us wouldn't have to expend any time or effort to avoid it.
The Ultralight did not kill them. the CRASHING OF IT INTO THEM KILLED THEM.
the mere existance and use of it did not do that.
why do you people keep trying to make analogous comparisons with things that are simple NOT analogous to each other.
their is only one thing you can compare to cigarettes.
Find something that you can do that DIRECTLY affects others lives without ANY benifit (positive)
Fuel is out. its benifit are obvious.
vehicles do not count (counting seperate from fuel) as they can not directly kill people merely by existing (fuel can) they have to be USED to kill someone intentionally or otherwise.
lets see. Poison. Oh but thats already illegal.
Nukes (as in bombs) ? oh but thats already illegal.
Missles. Oh but thats already illegal.
Murder. oh but thats already illegal.
Stealing oh but thats already illegal.
Rape oh but thats already illegal
and to make it worse the above CAN have positive (although SICK) benifits to the users.
I can go on ?
Each of the above are analogous to cigarettes and all are illegal.
Cigarettes serve the same function AND THEY EVEN KILL THE USER.
