I wonder how many lives have been saved by having instant communications in the palm of your hand?

Tell me, do you also support the banning of guns because some users are idiots? Same logic there, bud.

Absolutely not!!! I think we should be able to shoot these a**holes that think their chatting on their phone is more important than paying attention to their surroundings.

BTW....I would venture to say that more accidents have been cause by the lack of attention by cellphone users than lives saved.

Ohhh....btw...do people normally clean their firearms or mess with their sidearm while driving? If the do they have no business on the road.

My old boss got a cellphone (back in the 90s when it was interesting) in case of emergency, when he finally had an emergency he wound up landing on his cellphone and breaking it. So much for the life saving instant communications.

I don’t want to ban cellphones, I just want to be able to shoot the morons who can’t keep in their lane while yapping on the phone while behind the wheel of a car (can’t say they’re driving because that implies actually controlling the vehicle, which they aren’t). And severe beatings for the jackasses announcing their sex life to the world in stores, they aren’t actually a threat to anybody like the morons in cars so nothing lethal for them, just a physical demonstration of what they’re doing to my ears.
