BANNED!!!

I love it when people ban things.


They like to ban plastic bags…


“Last year, San Francisco became the first U.S. city to ban the bags [plastic bags] from supermarkets and chain drug stores, and this month, the city of Westport, Conn., banned most kinds of plastic bags at retail checkout counters. Boston, Baltimore and Portland, Ore., are also considering bans.”


Fast food restaurants…


“A law that would bar fast-food restaurants from opening in South Los Angeles for at least a year sailed through the Los Angeles City Council on Tuesday.”


Cell phones in crosswalks…


“A state senator from Brooklyn said on Tuesday he plans to introduce legislation that would ban people from using an MP3 player, cell phone, Blackberry or any other electronic device while crossing the street in New York City and Buffalo.


“NewsChannel 4 reported that Sen. Carl Kruger is proposing the ban in response to two recent pedestrian deaths in his district, including a 23-year-old man who was struck and killed last month while listening to his iPod on Avenue T and East 71st Street In Bergen Beach.”


If somethings SOUNDS dangerous then you can probably expect someone somewhere is proposing a ban to help keep YOU safe. I love how everyone is always looking out for me. I feel like those little amoebas in the ocean that are on the endangered species list who receive thousands of dollars in aid every year to help keep them alive. If it weren’t for HUMANS what would ANIMALS do?! Probably go extinct!


With so many people wanting to ban something, I have a couple things I’d like to ban, too.


THINGS TO BAN:


1. PEOPLE who like to play games.

2. Having sex at the gym (oh, wait, that’s what I like to do!).

3. Chicken bones on the bus (except for black people).

4. Black people (jk lol).

5. Breayd trucks (they cause too much confusion).

6. Guys who are ugly in the face (or have a caved in face).


Feel free to add to the list if there is anything you would like to never see again. If we can just stick together then I am sure we can get it banned!
