Why do we feel the need to scare ourselves constantly? I know, I know, the media loves to inflate risks to inflate ratings...

Remember when BIC lighters were killing people by the dozen by exploding in people's pocketS?

Well, that WAS before the safety locks,
and before the three day waiting period,
and before the no bic zones around schools,
and before bic proof vests,
and before the assault bic.

Everyone has a right to fire, we all know this, but the
founding fathers really only had in mind flint and steel or
perhaps matches BUT NOTHING MORE than that.
