I'd like to propose a Bill to stop police car chases amongst motorist in America.  I want everyone to know that I support our rich transportation heritage fully, and the police fully support me in this cause.  We need to stop these high speed chases to make our roads safer for the children before anyone else gets hurt.    First thing that we need to do is ban Corvettes, Porsches, Camaros, Mustangs, and many other sports cars on my list.  Sports cars are designed for high speed and don't really serve the purpose of transportation. They have many features to allow them to go fast:  Streamlined body, light weight construction, manual transmissions.  Sports cars only have 2 doors and 2 seats which make them more like a race car than a transportation vehicle.   And wow, they look fast, no one should own something like this!  The law breaking criminal will choose these cars as getaway vehicles and evad the police, even though statistics show very few are used in such chases.   Likewise on my list, I'm going to ban the 1980's Fiero 2M4, it has may sports car like features, slanted sleek nose, 2 doors, light construction, manual transmission, and it's not designed for transportation in mind because it only has 2 doors and 2 seats.   Just to show you how much I've thought this out, I'm NOT going to put on my list the Ford Taurus SHO.  This car is perfectly acceptable, it's a family sedan, it has four doors, seats 5 people, made of heavy steel, has an automatic transmission, and it looks like a normal car that I would drive. It might even be a family car that was passed down from father to son, and is really a part of our transportation heritage.   I really don't care that the  FORD Taurus SHO can compete with a Corvette, Mustang, Camaro, and many other cars with its overall performance....... and I don't care that a Fiero 2m4 could NOT keep up with my Grandma's minivan.   And while I'm at it, I'm going to ban all gas tanks in all cars larger than 10 gallons, because then all these high speed chases won't last long if they only have 10 gallons. I'm mean really, who needs more than 10 gallons of gas in their tank, there is a gas station on every corner! You can just fill up any time you want.   I just know that passing my Bill will reduce police chases in America!

Signed your politician.........

Before you read on, I think we can agree this sounds a bit outlandish?  How is getting rid of sports cars going to keep people from evading police with other cars, or motorcycles, or even running on foot?  It's not. 

This proposal is a attack on your freedom to choose a car that suits whatever purpose you want it for....It could be you collect cars, could be you race them in street legal closed racing courses, could be you like the way it looks in your garage, or that you like to go to car shows and show it off, the point is it doesn't matter the reason, if you want a Sports car no one should be telling you you can't have one because it only has 2 doors and it looks fast.......   Would you be upset if someone told you, sorry you can't buy them anymore?  What would you do about it?   Sit back and say oh well.....guess I'll never fulfill the dream of retiring and driving down Route 66 in a convertible Corvette!  American dream squashed by politics, no....you would be in an uproar at the absurdity of such a proposed law.  

Now substitute your favorite hobby for sports cars.....Golf (people get hit with ball, its dangerous)........British Football(Fans get stampeded and killed)....Hockey (its too violent).....Fishing (you're hurting fish, and people might get accidentally hooked), you name it,  you would be in an uproar if it was banned....

Now for those of you who don't get what I'm trying to say:
High Speed Car Chases = Violent Crime.
Sports Cars = Semi-Auto Guns that don't have any sporting (hunting heritage) purpose.
Fiero 2m4 = Semi-Auto AR15, not as powerful but demonized for its looks and similarities to military machine guns.
Ford Taurus SHO = Semi-Auto hunting rifles which in many cases are more powerful but look like your grandpa's 1960 hunting rifle.
Gas Tanks = Magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammo.

Now stand up and voice your opinion to your politicians, even if you don't own guns, or plan on owning them, its not about the guns, its about standing up for America and the Bill of Rights....... America is slowly becoming the land of the not so free..... take a stand and don't let them walk all over your rights!
