I do not use spell check because I know how to spell. Your spelling, however, is as atrocious as it is inchoate.
(you can also dust off said dictionary to look up definitions also)

Freedoms for one is not a freedom if it infringes on others. And your govt, your smoking, your pigs and all the others who you support all infringe on my right to live a quite peaceful life without the chains of big govt telling me what to do while doing it themselves without consequense.

you don't know how to spell; you have bad grammar; and you don't like math. but it is mathguy that we are supposed to think of as ignorant?

I suspect there is more to your answer to me. You could care less what I listed for my ban wishes. But when I said that dirty filthy word smoking, that got all the smokers pizzed off wanting my blood.

chill out, dude. they weren't even referring to your posts. go back, calm down, follow the quote chain, and read them again.
what would i ban?
nothing. bans are inherently a waste of time, money, and effort. education and proper enforcing of the laws that we currently have is what we need to focus on.

I would think, at an absolute minimum, a posting in Great Debates would get at least a D if handed in as a paper in junior high school English Composition. If you don't have time to go back and re-read what you just wrote, how do you expect anyone else to believe that your position is well thought out?

Exotic animals (pythons, sugargliders, parrots/macaws/cockatoos, etc.) as pets. In fact, I think that any animal that is not domesticated should not be allowed as a pet.

I never ever went into a gas station to ask for X gallons. I am smart enough to look into my pocket and know how much money I have and how much gas I need. Algebra has no use in society. Go check the hundreds of threads where everyone agrees with me. Probably because I am right.
I tell ya what. If you come into my store and ask for a dozen eggs to the 19th power xyz ->4 I would call the men in white jackets to come take you away.

Texting while driving is right up there, alright. That should be a nationwide ban.
There really is not a whole lot that I would like to see banned. And what I do exception out are pretty big issues:
Home Owners Associations. Seriously. Where I work I have heard of things you would not believe. They are a tight-a$$ed government within themselves.
Need to ban anchor-baby laws.

I made one small comment on your terrible grammatical skills. That can hardly be classified as whining sir. And it is awfully self-centered of you to assume that I or anyone else visit this forum for the same reasons you do.
