   No Subject Given

   Bravo! We need more ideas like this. I am for banning freeways since it is used for crimes and especially after-crime-getaways. Next, I want to ban currency since cash is the easiest way to make illegal deals without leaving a trail. Next, I would ban politicians and corporations since atleast a few percent of the two above-mentioned groups are corrupt. -Mast.

   Better yet, lets just add secondary infringement parts to ALL laws. See how long it is until they have to start arresting everyone for just about everything.

   Other items to be banned

   People have used air and water for illegal acts. These items need to be banned for "our safety and the safety of our children."

   Banning Guns

   I don't understand why nobody is suggesting we ban guns. I am fairly certain they are used more often for illegal purposes than legal ones, even including gun range use. These things actually cost lives, not just cause hypothetical losses to record company execs.
   
   Do the responsible politicians (ok, oxymoron) not realize that these bills open up precedence for bans on something the US holds near and dear?
   
   Or maybe that's part of their greater plan.

   Automobiles actually cost more lives than guns. Perhaps we should start with those.

   A lot of people are actually working to make this one happen.

   Outlaw outlaws

   No. I think these times call for even greater measures. We need to outlaw laws. Hunt down policemen. Disband governments. After all, laws nave never prevented outlaws from doing anything. At best they only make us feel bad about doing things we were going to anyway. Only when there are no more laws can we be sure that unscrupulous people will not use the law to accomplish illegal activities.

   RE: Ipod stealing cars - Guns Too!

   Good comments,
   
   It occurs to me that since Senator Hatch and Senator Leahy are so concerned about illegal use of P2P because it is being used illegally, then we should also point to a few other items that should be banned because they INDUCE criminal acts:
   
   1. Guns (NRA BEWARE)
   2. Cars (for getaway)
   3. computers (identity theft, et al)
   4. Stoves (for cooking drugs)
   5. Cameras (for illegal porn)
   6. shoes (hey, bombs could be in shoes!)
   
   and the list goes on....
   
   good work on this blog..

   I woulda sooner bet that we'd see an article revealing that pervs were using ipods to store and share child porn... Guess we have to wait until the video ipod for them to make that leap...
