But it is illegal to drive over 75. So having a car that can go over the speed limit is not practical.



What if your wife had a heart attack and you want to get her to the hospital, fast? That's a practical reason to have a faster car.

Wouldn't it be practical to govern all vehicles so they don't travel over 75 mph. Wouldn't that make us safer?


Are you implying that these type weapons aren't safe?

What type of weapons are safe? Weapons are labeled as such not because they are safe, but because they are able to cause harm.

No, what would be practical is to have an EMS with paramedics come to her.

No, I'm implying that things being impractical shouldn't necessarily lead to them being banned.

What if multiple people are breaking into my home to do me and my family harm? That’s a practical reason to have a larger magazine.
