[Naspino]

Some people have fatal allergies to peanuts. Should peanuts and peanut products be banned from public places?

Yes -- I think the throwing and rubbing of peanuts over random strangers should be banned. Its easy to be a jerk when you don't have family with these types of allergies.

Naspino, I ask you a serious question?
Should smoking be outlawed, or banned in any way by the government, because your wife is allergic to tobacco smoke?

I didn't know it was legal to throw and rub peanuts over random strangers. Is it? Last I checked that would be called simple assault.

Just the presence of peanuts in the vacinity of food being prepared can cause serious reactions to those with allergies. Should the governments power for force be brought to bear on businesses and ban the use of and presence of peanuts? Especially those bowls of free peanutes that some bars put out!
