PalQ: I think you have a wonderful idea..jist disobey any laws you "think" are "stupid" and in return, here's what I'm going to do: run your silly ass over with my car in the crosswalk...and please don't complain when nothing legal happens to me because I decided to disobey that "law" I think is stupid..you know, the one that says you go to jail if you kill people!
