Yes! Another one who wants a turf lawn!! ! (Not only does it save you the problem of mowing, but also the fuel, parts, fertilizer, etc).

Along that line, how about something that prevents one from having to shave that doesn't involve lasers or wax?

I second unleashed dogs and having too many children which one can't take care of.

I'd also ban not using turn signals...I know it's already illegal, but I'd definitely become part of a citizen turn-signal task force. I HATE when people don't use their signals...especially when they're passing on the right!

Having a 3rd (or 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, etc.) child after your first 2 children were paid for entirely (and continue to be financed) by the tax payers (WICC, medicare, SSI, food stamps, etc.). Two is enough. Now get off your ass, and get a job. If you're irresponsible again, the baby goes up for adoption to rich infertile couples whose tax dollars are financing the other 2, and YOU are the lucky recipient of an IUD.

Crocs. Ugh. They are so awful. You could still wear them to garden or pick up dog poop in your yard, just not in public, unless you're working in a public garden.

Low cut jeans, mini-skirts, and high-cut shirts in "plus" sizes. I don't want to see anyone's crack, back rolls, pendulous gut, or cellulite, and I'm pretty sure that 99% or greater of the rest of the population doesn't want to either. Just because they make it in your size, doesn't mean you have to wear it. Now, I'm not talking about size 16 or so....I'm talking about 300+ lb women baring too much flesh.

Busybody do gooders like Rob Reiner and Josh Sugarman. :x People should be allowed to pollute their lungs with tobacco just like Reiner loves his twinkies. Sugarman can be one of those people who call for a Cop, an Ambulance and a Pizza and see who arrives first when he thinks there is a burglar coming in. Since I'm pretty confident that T.J. Hooker is not going to be waiting around the corner to save my butt, I'll use some other option :!:

I wouldn't want to ban a lot of things, but I think I have one good idea.

Radio stations and their ads shouldn't be allowed to use car sound effects like engines or horns or squealing brakes.

Perhaps, instead of giving people welfare to take care of there too many children, or too young to have children, we should give them loans they have to pay back when their kids are old enough to go school, or are over 16. Make them pay interest, and use that repayment of a loan to take care of the next generation of irresponsable adults with too many children. Like college loans.

Sorry but, I would rather ban religion, and give everyone a handbook that tells you how you are expected to act. Oh wait, isn't that religion? :roll:

The Right to Bare Arms. I seriously think violence would dramatically cut down. Majority of guns used for violence dramatically outnumber guns that are used for protection if you look at the percentages of gun incidents. Take for example the young guy that shot most of his victims at that college. They were randomly and automatically shot. How the hell did he get his hands on an automatic and why would anyone need an automatic besides the military?

Doesn't take a geni to know that this here ain't no hunt'n gun.

I do know that ppl sure luv their guns.

I would ban nothing; just because I might have discomfort with some things does not give me the right to infringe on others' rights.

Guys- don't take your anger and insecurities out on the rest of the world. Just tell yourself this: you're smarter- and BETTER- than everyone else, and just live your life the best you can, and enjoy it :)

- The Weinstein Company
- Sales of Dianetics
- That one dude who keeps complaining to the FCC, making them fine radio shows thousands of more dollars
- Prohibtion of the sale of alcohol after 9PM (now that's some REAL BS)

One spammer in Russia winded up getting murdered. I'm not sure whether that was to do with the spamming or not. Apparently the Russian mafia did it.

You send an unwanted promotional e-mail to someone about a new event that's taking place locally, the recipient doesn't like it and you should be murdered by the State? Barking.

Prove it. Anyway, 'guilt' isn't actually about whether you have done whatever crime you are being up in court for but whether they can prove beyond reasonable doubt that you committed the offence(s). You can't just arbitrarily decide to lock people away without a fair hearing just because you think they have done it. That way lies the mob.
