I can't even begin to take you seriously when you're arguing on behalf of the group who heckles their own political candidates because they believe in driver's licensing requirements. [VIDEO]

> My point was that if pressed, the lawmakers responsible for overriding these "bag bans" would say something similar to you, essentially that bag bans are bad (though I suspect their reasoning would look very different). They would say something similar to me. Except the reasoning would be very different. So the only similarity is that they would say that it is “bad” (I would say that the ban is pointless per se). So they wouldn’t say something similar to what I said. Next up: “Wars are bad”. Did avgcorrection say that? Or a Libertarian? [VIDEO]
