In Soviet New York, iPod bans you!
So a state senator in New York wants to ban using iPods while crossing city streets.

USA Today blogs about it. The comments section is a cesspool of wank, mostly of the righteous indignation kind. Watch how liberals are blamed for all society's ills! Marvel at how Darwin is misused over and over again! Gasp as accusations of communism are thrown around carelessly!

The stupid, it had to be shared.

ETA: BE MORE FUNNY, PEOPLE.

*SIGH* No, genius. CARS can kill people. You can't walk on the freeway either, even though it might be the most convenient route. Because someone could KILL YOU. No matter how careful you are.

Jesus, is listening to your tunes really worth risking your life? If so, risk away. But I wonder how many people would whine and try to sue the city if they get hit by a car while they're having a merry time being oblivious. It happens.

	If you are too retarded to cross the street while wearing an iPod then perhaps it's Darwin at work. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
