    I have about had it with this safety/nanny culture.

    Need to start putting warnings on bureaucrats instead stating, Will waste your tax money, and micromanage your life.

      Research has shown that warning labels on dangerous products such as cigarettes reduces deaths so it’s clearly not a waste of money.

        What’s next a warning label on breathing? Warning, failure to inhale and exhale will cause oxygen deprivation and death?

          That’s a false equivalence and a strawman made into a sentence.

            It’s pretty cool how some people in the comments are just outright telling us they have no ground to stand on, though.
