Ian, I hate you. I'm out.

I lose...

Thanks for those, Cofi, I needed to lose more hope in our nation. People who agree with those have never felt the bone chilling fear of being in mortal danger. Granted, I have not in this country, but I'd prefer the means to defend myself if that occasion ever presented itself.

Rage aside, this is the coolest fucking paint job I've ever seen on a gun. Who can do one up for me like this??

Oh good I was hoping another thread would devolve into peanut allergies and vaccinations!!

Well then, allow me to get this heading in the right direction yet again!

I would have to say that someone who doesnt vaccinate is just as ignorant or self centered as someone who doesnt take peanut allergies seriously.

Fair enough. Given my nom de plume, clearly I couldn't possibly fall into the 'self centered' category.
You know who would, though? Parents of children with severe peanut allergies who send their kids to day care centers. You know, the ones who will gladly put their child in a high-risk environment and expect all the other parents to be responsible for their safety. Those ignorant and self-centered parents who would willingly expose their child to the danger, but also all the other parents and children a lifetime of regret over the inadvertent consumption of a common breakfast food or a peanut M&M. The sort of parents who are preparing their child well to live in a world full of danger around every corner with the expectation that the rest of society will bear the burden of keeping them safe.

If little Billy wanted to come to my house and play with my son, I'd lock up all the peanut butter and everything I could find with tree nuts, and probably buy some specialty food to minimize the danger. That is something I would do because I wanted little Billy and my son to have the opportunity to play, and it would be my responsibility as the host to ensure they had a safe environment. However, if I don't know little Billy from little Adam, and he's just another of the 40 toddlers running around on the playground, then the onus falls squarely on little Billy's parents to ensure they have an epi-pen and he stays away from the kid with the peanut M&Ms.

To be clear, I don't blame the child for the severe peanut allergy they did not choose to have, nor the parents for seeking day care or the desire to mainstream their child. I do blame the parents for placing their child in a potentially dangerous situation with nearly ubiquitous exposure to a common and otherwise harmless food-stuff, and then expecting everyone else to bear the responsibility of keeping their child safe. I comply because I don't want my child to have the responsibility for killing their child due to their poor decisions regarding risk exposure, but I am bitter about it.
