STUPID LAWS
« on: Jan 24, 2010, 02:47:51 PM »
So I think this forum needs a stupid law thread which is why im starting one. 
Post up a law/laws that you think are stupid or uncalled for or needs to be changed and why.  For instance...

The drinking age my god you gotta be kidding,  I can sign up for the military, fight and die for my country at the age of 18, but I cant legally drink a beer.  What's that about.  I mean look at germany they have less DUI's and drinking related problems than america and there drinking age isnt 21 damnit.

STUPID ASS LAW #1

Germany has teeth in their DWB laws and I don't think they have lawyers specializing in getting you off with only fines.


BTW...DWB is a ZZ Top reference  :biggthumpup:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

:shhh:  don't spoil people's rants by bringing up the facts  :slap:

Assault weapons ban So stupid.

:yesnod:  agreed, weapons bans are nonsensical at best.  

Speaking of, I think we should pass 2 new laws:  every man must serve in the military, and when done must take their service weapon home with them  :gap:

According to the US code...the Feds are responsible for training all males 18-45 to be in the militia and the states are responsible for arming them. I figure I'm owed a weapon or two.

I guess I'm owed a weapon and some training, but I doubt they'll give me the former without the latter, and I'm in no shape for that  :_oops:

Back to stupid laws...I think any restriction on any (non-felon) citizen are wrong/stupid.

Back when I was 18, we could drink on base at the E Club. Later when I was in my 20s, it changed to whatever the states law was.

If you have no hands...how would you hold a knife?

How about how the CA state senate wants to eliminate all free parking in the state. To "encourage use of public transportation" :shake:

1. Giving SSI to people that have never paid a cent into it! That's basically you having a checking account & letting someone else take the money you put in. I'm sure when I retire (if I'm lucky) there will be no money for me. The government should say "you didn't pay into it, you don't get it!  

2. People that are here illegally or on a work visa! If they can't produce proper documents, they should be taxed more. If your here on a work visa, you should be taxed more.

3. Tax laws. It should be a flat tax of your income, not tax brackets. Before you say "no taxes" think about police, firefighters & other useful services your tax money pays for.

Im gonna go with gun ban laws.

"if you outlaw guns, only the outlaws will have them"

Also the no talking on the phone without a hands free device.. Its not the holding the phone to your ear thats the problem.. its the talking on the flippin phone that is the issue.

I won't say I totally disagree, but the 12 year old logic you're bringing to most of your rants is hilarious  :haha:

Would you say that it is indeed the holding of the phone that is the distracting issue?
I beg to differ.  I can drive with one hand absolutely fine.  But when people talk on the phone,the talking, is what in my opinion, makes them lose concentration which effects their driving.

Keep in mind i am not talking about texting while driving. That should definitely be banned.
