Quote by: Osborn F Enready  I also agree with your DUI argument Rob, and have made this case several times to several peoples dismay, even though the logic is crystal clear, some still just "don't get it". |
I disagree..... if there is potiential for further death and injury due to easy access to something, it makes sense to restrict that access.......
If you got a room full of kids..... and they all want a cookie but you don't want them to have one.... what do you do? Do you:
A) leave all the cookies on the table for all to easily grab and hope for the best?
or
B) Put them all in a cookie jar up on the Fridge?
Now granted you will still have the determined who will still want a cookie.... but the existing deterrant for most is there..... some kids wouldn't bother with the extra work in getting it on the fridge and in the jar...... therefore, a reduction in the ammount of kids having cookies would be far less if it was in a jar on top of the fridge, compared to having them all sitting on the table, at hand's reach.
The same logic applies here.... No law will absolutly abolish anything..... people will still smoke pot.... people will drink and drive, people will still get shot.... people will still make bombs and blow things up..... people will still rip tags off of matresses...... but that doesn't mean certain laws don't help the overall numbers.
