What better solution than to ban something?

Geez, the provinicial government seems to have an obsession with banning things. First it was pit bulls, then idling, now cellphones while driving are also banned (even though none of the other deadly distractions are banned). I mean really, if they were gonna ban cellphone use in cars, why wouldn't they also ban loud music, putting on makeup/changing clothes, eating, drinking (other than alochol) while driving as well?

It'll be interesting to see if this ban actually works or if cellphone use while driving will instead increase. Something tells me the latter is a helluva lot more likely.

I can't help but wonder...

With tea parties across the U.S. this past week, I wonder if there'll be a similar revolt across ontario against the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST).

I guess the left was right...

When it comes to our troops being in Afghanistan, that is. Because although I initially supported the war in Afghanistan, the news about a law making it illegal for women to refuse sex w/ their husbands (unless she's ill or if intercourse will harm her) has my support dwindling. Because after all, what's the point of our troops being there if the Afghan government is gonna go back centuries in regards to human rights?

This is sickening.

I mean why would anyone sell their kid into marriage for money, beer & meat? And what's even more outrageous is the fact that this man only faces up to 10 years in prison.
