Better start asking gun manufacturers to control their usage

Lets ask the gun manufacturer's to control what usage their weapons can be used for!

While we are at it lets ask OTC drug companies to control how we use drugs too. Better enforce the directions on the bottle!

Then move on to cars. The fastest speed limit I know of in the US is 75. So, lets just slap an artificial limit of 75 on every car, coded right into the chip. Better yet. We can hook up a nationwide transponder system so that the car will only ever go the speed limit for that road.

This has been proposed multiple times. The only thing that saves us from this nannyism are the two groups that are against it: Auto manufacturers (new car sales would be impacted for years) and the states (who would lose a substantial revenue stream).

  There is already a federally mandated and enforced speed cap on SUVs made after 1995. Top legal speed, no matter how far you can stick your foot in it or how high the speedometer reads is 95 MPH. Food for thought. ;D
