If you could make one currently legal thing illegal...

[ubersonic]

Swearing in public.

Isn't that illiegl now? I swear I once saw a chav pinched for yelling "**** you! you **** ing pig ****!" (sadly they didn't introduce him to mr boot in the process )

 

[wannabedamned]

Most things chavs do. So spitting, playing music through loudspeakers, swearing in public. Covers them all really.

I just think a chav culling would be appropriate, just once or twice per year, to keep numbers down.

Dog owners should be made to attend and pass a thorough training course with each and every one they own, regardless of breed.

I have been charged by countless dogs whilst running and the owner finally ambling over to me, after I have already stopped, and informing me that "he's friendly, don't worry" is of no use whatsoever. If you cannot command your dog to stop and/or sit with 100% obedience you have no business owning one, let alone taking it out in public.

Paving the way for persecuting/killing gay people? Nein, mein Fuhrer?

 

[smelly_legend]

for some people 1= 1 + x

 

[TommyV]

People who don't indicate. Although it may already be illegal to some degree for all I know.

 

[Twirlywoos]

I'd like for congestion charges and toll bridges to be made illegal. I went to London a couple of weeks back and those Southerners take the **** with their special taxes, who do they think they are?

 

[Kiyoshi]

Football.

Don't worry there should be a gene therapy to cure it soon that will switch the epi-marks back to normal.

But this is again a logical fallacy.

No it isn't.

You may not agree with it, but it's not a logical fallacy.

Many people are there through their own life decisions. I'm not beyond helping those who find themselves in poor situations through no fault of their own but those who effectively placed themselves in such a situation have little to no sympathy from me. Plus, I know from experience that there is help out there but many people don't seek it out.

Where do people who lose the ability to help themselves (due to poor parenting or bad experiences) "fit" into this simplified & ultimately flawed version of reality?.
