Claude, I don't think there will ever be a day when an old-fashioned wooden
ladder, when used properly, will come under suspicion. I think nowadays
most people have a problem with the new "high capacity" ladders, which have
their origin as siege weapons designed to kill large numbers of people, and
the modern "semi-automatic" ladders that cause so much pain and misery in
our civilization.

I know you are probably one of those crazy people who cling to their ladders
and bibles, but let's be realistic here, the average person has no need for
a ladder, especially the types I listed above. Most reasonable and logical
people will naturally understand that we need to reduce the number of
ladders in our society, at the very least to help us protect our children.

We live in a modern society, far removed from a time when a man needed a
ladder, and you should just call a licensed contractor, who is a trained
professional, to deal with any situation which requires the use of a ladder.

How many more children need to die mercilessly at the hands of civilian
"handymen" with their ladders of destruction?

BAN LADDERS NOW - DO IT FOR THE CHILDREN!
