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!
I would push for attempted murder as the case warrants. CSI did an episode where peanuts was used as a murder weapon. When you have someone in your family that can die from these allergies you might have a different take on the issue. I'm not for forced bans -- but I'm not going to argue with people that choose it for themselves. What would you say to a day care that won't let your child eat a peanut-butter sandwich for lunch because another child has an allergy? Screw the kid with the allergy?
