I got an email back from my Congresswoman. In short is said, "I understand but too bad."

Your tax dollars at work.
They're worried about lead? How about not letting kids touch computers or play with toys made in China? My dad bought me a BB gun and pellet guns when I was a kid, I was in the Boy Scouts where we learned how to whittle with knives, how to throw axes and shoot rifles. My dad taught me to drive a stick in a parking lot when I was 14. These things all made me a better, more responsible adult. Adults are stealing all sense of adventure and lessons of responsibility from childhood with these stupid laws and the helicopter parent mentality. |

When I was a kid there was no law about bicycle helmets, you rode your bike down the sidewalk (because is was safer than the street), but back then the lawyers weren't as greedy. I could go on and on about how the government (and lawyers) have taken away more and more rights and put more and more controls on us, for the good of ourselves (since the public is too stupid to know right from wrong). People have put up with all these new restraints (I mean laws) and not said a word. Today, the public is starting to stand up for themselves more and more and hopefully we take back our country from these laws and controls that are shoved down our throat.
I moved from the city to the country before I had my two sons and they grew up being able to do whatever they wanted on our own property. They each rode bicycles at 2 years old (with no helmet) motorcycles at 3 years old (with full gear), they learned about guns, they had firecrackers on the 4th of July, they jumped out of trees, they jumped off the roof into the pool, and they never had someone tell them NO. They each made it up to now with no injuries and a full appreciation of adventure and excitment. They aren't afraid to try something new and love to travel and discover new things. We are losing our freedom more and more each day. Get active in your area and don't complain if you don't vote. We are the ones putting these people in power. We are the ones who can vote them out when they don't do what we want.

Dianne Feinstein is a douche. She needs to be voted out. I never liked her.

When I was going through the public school system (94-07) I noticed every year things would get stricter every year to the point where it felt like I had more freedom in the 3rd grade than I did in 12th.
