Sure.  Then I suppose we should outlaw car radios because they are distracting.
And we should outlaw comfortable car seats because you might fall asleep.  And
we should surely outlaw heterosexual drivers because they account for about 
ninety percent of all accidents.  Better yet, since plane travel is so much
safer than car travel, why not ban cars entirely?  Or at least ban night travel.

Your choice of where to make the trade-off between the rights of the individual
and the rights of everyone else is skewed too far towards everyone else.  Why
doesn't the government go pick on someone its own size?  (And why doesn't it
get an honest job like everyone else, instead of stealing?)

Oh yeah, this is net.FLAME, I forgot.   Ummm... how about: You are the
anthropoid equivalent of rust.
