So if we want to stop suicide, then we need to outlaw guns, knives, razor blades, all other sharp objects, ropes, extension cords, any cord that is longer than 2 feet, chairs & stools, sleeping pills, aspirin, pain killers, all house hold cleaning agents, and my personal favorite, we must maintain a constant watch on everyone to make sure they drink enough water.

Now on to accidental death. Yes it is well known that people accidentally shoot themselves every year, or are shot by a friend who was not being safe. I also have personal experience in this, as someone I know vary closely shot and killed his best friend when he was only a teen. It was a complete accident, but it still happened and that person still suffers from alcoholism to this day. However, I also know of a man who watched as his brother and son where electrocuted after there tractor puling a farm implement struck a power line, so I guess we should outlaw farm equipment, and power lines too.

I would add high ledges, and stairways to that list and shoe laces.

You do understand that there are plenty of conservatives on this site right? There are lots of members with varying political points of view. The difference between yourself and the others is that you provide weak arguments for your opinions. Part of GT is when you do this you are going to draw attention towards yourself and pretty quickly few members are going to take you seriously.


For example you said "Arguing with Liberals is like beating a dead horse.

I think I would have more luck yelling at one of the walls in my home, and getting it to move on its own."

Yet this is exactly what you have been doing in this thread and some other threads. Like I said there is a popular protocol of discourse used in GT usually it works fairly well if you refuse to follow it you'll not enjoy GT very much.

Maybe this will help
