There comes a time when the ways of the past need be revisited.
It seems that we may be at that time.

This^^^^^

A gallon of gas goes a long way in the mass murder business.

Wonder if that's what the .g0v was really thinking with the stupid new gas cans?

Humans are handy at making tools, take away one and we will come up with a work around asap.

I think for me - be it mass shootings, nut jobs with gas, dudes in cars etc. I've never believed that society or the government owes me a life completely devoid of all risk. The price I pay to be able to do the things I like is to assume some risk for myself and I should also be able to mitigate risk as I need to/see fit as well (CCW for instance).

I don't know when we decided that everyone is to be protected at all times - physically or their feelings but it's to our detriment. From a purely darwin or science perspective - the fact we continue to protect people who do dumb things - that is, they don't end up with consequences of being stupid and then they propagate - makes wonder if we're de-evolving by not weeding out actors that aren't the best and brightest.

I'm not calling for pograms - I'm saying, remove the caution labels and safety nets and let the chips fall where they may.
