First id like to point out im an american, but I was just thinking the other day that generally whats a big problem in america is the lack of using your common sense. Here people try too much to set up a law and forbid certain activities to prevent ANY chance of something happening. What they dont take into consideration is that forbidding things can lead to bigger problems. I just had to think about this after hearing about several schools forbidding any kind of hugging and even giving out detention to little girls giving each other a quick hug. Problem was most parents they interviewed generally agreed it was a good rule.
This being over cautious is really annoying because it takes away so much more freedom than it is protecting.
You can never take away the chance of something happening, but you pretty much guarantee a negative impact by forbidding something in the first place.
Same can be said on the criminalization of marijuana.
That Sounds like something Ron Paul might say.
