  1. Frank, I think you forgot banning plastic grocery bags in many cities.

    Hey, let’s save the Planet! Ban people. We’ll start with Democrats.

    Seriously, one of the few things George Carlin ever said that I agree with:

    “Besides, there is nothing wrong with the planet… The planet is fine. The PEOPLE are f****d!!”

  2. Why, oh why do I read the comments at PJTV? Did you know that the Puritans had blue laws? Colonial citizens never got lung cancer? Oh the humanity! Our forebears were nothing but totalitarians in white wigs. We are freer now than ever.

    ‘Tis a sad, sad day. Frank J. has been completely and absolutely discredited.

  3. Once again Frank scores!

    In that vein I believe we should ban keyboards because they may give you carpal tunnel, ban writing because it makes you think, ban toilets because they make you leave your video game, ban video games because they make you obese, we should ban obesity because it makes you lazy. We should ban laziness because it shirks responsibility, we should ban responsibility because that is not done by the government.

    Oh wait, don’t the marxists want you fat and lazy and dependent on the government?

    As the talk show host Mike Church says, “Citizen!, you will obey your federal overlord, Citizen!”

  4. World Health Organization (or Organisation, depending on where you ask) says: “There is compelling evidence that male circumcision reduces the risk of heterosexually acquired HIV infection in men by approximately 60%.” Good thing San Francisco has no noticeable gay male population.

  5. The British weren’t providing very good free health care (wait time for a poor person to get an MRI was over 200 years), they were refusing to increase taxes on the rich, and they had very few laws dictating what colonists were allowed to eat, causing many to become obese on the high-fructose maize syrup the Indians taught them to make.

    All in all, I think this is the best sentence I’ve seen you write, Frank.

    However, it’s important to remember that the Indians only made high-fructose maize syrup because their government incentivized its production by paying farmers wampum for corn.

  6. Burmashave makes the classic leftist error. He asserts, “We are freer now than ever.” He confused social restrictions which are imposed on self, with political restrictions which are imposed on [nearly] everyone by someone else. For example, if you didn’t like the Puritans, you could drop your religion. Its much harder to drop all your property and move to another country.
