I wonder if WD-40 the lubricant is used to maintain
sprinkler systems? Or, to maintain guns used by
criminals?

I have coined an expression you can use. Banning
law abiding people from owning guns is like saying
"There is a fox among the chickens. We'd better
shoot our dog." Results work out about the same,
too.

This whole thread is totally useless. This kind of **** is
always
propagated by "safety zealots" ( If it saves OOOOOOONE life
...... )
who are quickly followed by politicians who want to get
re-elected by
passing "feel good" (do nothing - unenforceable) laws.

Yeah, lets pass a law that says that everyone has to have
sprinker
systems in their house. So ok ...... you can force people to
install
them but you can't force them to maintain or even keep them
in running
condition. Lets say a fire occurs and the sprinkler system
doesn't
work because it wasn't maintained. Someone dies. Some one
goes to
jail. So now what? ....Does the person who died come back to
life?
No? Oh yeah, that's right. Some one gets sued and the
family gets a
lot of money or the guy goes bankrupt or doesn't have the
means to pay
and all of this is SUUUUUURE to make the next asshole who
doesn't
want to maintain a system think twice. Yeah ..... sure
that's going to
happen.
Yep ..... Uh Huh!

In the meantime, people are paying millions of dollars to
install and
maintain system so that ...... what ..... a few lives a year
are
saved? The safety zealots say that it's worth it? Then
let them pay
for it.

This is all just as stupid as outlawing guns to law abiding
people so
that the criminals wont use them to commit crimes.
