I thought there would be more heat in that response Lab, very diplomatic of you. I'm just wondering when there will be a ban on SUVs because SOME of thier owners don't know how to drive them, or why there isn't an outright ban on cars due to irresponsible drivers. One bad apple spoils the whole barrel, right?
Thanks, I try to be as nice as I can. I mean I have respect for everybodies opinions and even if I dont agree with them they are just as valid as my own. I do get abgry if people start to give info they cant back up, or if they try to force their opinion on myself and others and even more so if I know it is wrong. But nobody here is guilty of that. Everybody here is merely stating opinions and nobody is being rude, so I have no reason to be rude back. I will however gladly discuss anybodies opinion, And I will definatley try to respect it as best I can.
As for the Banning SUVs comment. I am not too sure if it was meant as sarcasm towards me or whether it was serious. I will just respond as if it was serious though. I do think that in reality it may seem like a dumb comparison. Which granted it very well may be. But it isnt a comparison of what is being banned it is a comparison of the principle of banning things. Exsactly as gonefishin I think was aiming at, you cannot punish everyone for the irrisponsible actions of few. Its like saying all black people are criminals simply because in many areas they commit more crime than any other race. Is this true? NO! You cant generalize like that! There are more decent black people than there are bad black people, but we dont throw all of them in jail because of it, do we??
Banning Pit Bulls is an extreme measure that should not be used until every other measure has at least been attempted.
I apoligize to anybody I may have offended with my comments in this post, as it was not my intention to single out the black community, and was by no means meant to be-little them or sound racist in any way.
