        Ofcourse there is no brain damage, if he didnt wear a helmet he didnt have any brain to damage

          I say that HERE IN THE USA the laws will go mad. Have you not been paying attention to how ridiculous certain things have gotten over here?

            Have you ever thought that the reason it happens is that you go batshit crazy over the sane stuff, so so when its time to protest against the crazy stuff you already exhausted your arguments and no one cares cause "it's just those paranoid antigoverment types"?

              The very fact that nobody sees the first 10 transgressions as worth caring about... means that any and all protests will fall on deaf ears when the "reall important" stuff comes up.

                Ahh, thank you for confirming my point

                Jokes asside, to understand Gurms point of view its good to remember that most of the people that immigrated to USA was those that fled from countries where the state didnt let them have the amount of freedom they wanted (religion, speech, you name it), Thousands of people left sweden for that reason

                No wonder that goverment paranoia and conspiracy are so often used as plots for books, tv, movies, games etc etc in the US

                  Um, isn't Australia the place where they've taken the concept of gun control to mean "restrict anything that can cause injury, including sharp sticks, boards with nails in them, and possibly fingernails?"

                    Oh Yes! I'd say that is a prime example of what Gurm fears

                        nope, they just took away our god given right to use automatic weapons on possums the bastiches, ' 'cause ya know possums wear bullet proof vests and carry howitzers in their pouches

                        English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

                          People often underestimate the danger of opossums, at least until they encounter one in the wild. Then they discover the real reason why guns like M60's exist...

                              Wait, basketball causes more injuries that require an ER visit than bicycle accidents?!
                              We better regulate basketball! Require elbow and kneepads for everyone! Helmets if you're under 16! And the ball is too hard, lets make it softer so it doesn't cause any facial injury if it hits someone!
