Should we outlaw rope because some people hang themselves?

Just because I don't use rope for anything does that mean I should be able to determine that is illegal for everyone else to use it?

    Right. But we shouldn't stop there...

    Outlaw buildings that people can jump from.

    Outlaw bridges that people can jump from.

    Outlaw knives that people can stab with.

    Outlaw pools because people can drown themselves.

    Outlaw cars because we can drive off cliffs with them.

    -or inhale the exhaust and die

    Outlaw garages that people use to inhale car exhaust.

    Outlaw train tracks that people might jump on.

    Outlaw buses that people can jump in front of.

    Outlaw any chemical that people can drink too much of and die, from alcohol to water.

    Man, I'm just getting started! We need to get these new laws out quickly! PEOPLE ARE DYING!!!!
