And where does personal responsibility come into the mix?

Personal responsibility just ain't part of the American recipe anymore.

Yeah, the store owner who sold the substance to get people high.

What kind of moron sucks in a whippet while they are driving? Sheesh, I always made sure there was something soft to land on if I couldn't stand up....Looks like the store was winking at the use of the cartridges, but it's hardly negligent on their part. It's a legal product. (I am aware of some stores like Lechter's that restrict its sale).

Yes! I have a whippet dog and though he's Had some accidents, he's never caused them!
To: Sunshine Sister
True. So true. Are they gonna ban canned whipped cream now? From what I understand, it's the same propellant.

I don't think whippets would get anyone high enough to do a whipped cream dance with this one. You'd have to knock over 2 or 3 dentist offices, at least.

I tried to buy some whip cream for punkin' pie a few weeks ago - some grocers won't sell after 8pm.

Driving and doing whippets at the same time? Darwin award winner!

Yeah, the store owner who sold the substance to get people high.They sold a legal substance. Questionable, but legal.
Using that logic, should we now sue any gun store owner for an illegal act committed by someone who legally bought a legal product?

Bad analogy. A better analogy is if the store owner was selling airplane glue knowing it was to be used for huffing. The owner knew the intention of the NO.

No doubt they're also suing the car manufacturer for negligence.
