Obama Bans Kids Motorcycles and ATV's

Hahaha, you silly people arguing over which dictator is better or worse.

In reality, they're all on the same team. Like it or not. They are. But enough of this, it could go forever.

So, they banned "toys" that may contain lead? So is a toy something that you don't need? Because then the could ban a lot of stuff. I know you don't need those fancy leather seats or heated cupholders.

I wonder when it will go to far, and people will wake up and start taking care of themselves?
 
He should have started with guns............................

That will stir the pot up a bit :Ø)

Steve

isn't he doing something with guns? i think we can still buy them but it will be harder to get the ammo. A guy at my work said after a while they will start to "brand" the ammo casings with some stamp or something so anything without a stamp will be banned . i am not sure but that is what i was told. i am sure i need to do some homework on this deal as well lol
 
I don't care who is president. It's congress that passed the stupid law in the first place, and that's who is going to get an earful from me.

Presidents don't write laws... at least they're not supposed to. And the problem with this law is that it was written stupidly.

my fact's are right, and the fact is Obama is president Not Bush . You Bush haters are going to keep blaming Bush for everything from the war of 1812 to the end of time and will always give obama a free pass and not blame him for anything. I think I'll go for a ride while I still have the freedom to do so, before it becomes illegal.

Jeses christ man!! I had Obama as much as anyone out there, but evin I wouldn't blame him for this. He had nothing to do with it! There will be plenty of things to pin on him in the near future so save your mis guided frustration for those arguments.
 
Regardless who the law was passed under remember it take the three branches of government to pass a law, the president cannot alone. To say this is Obama's fault is, well, very incorrect.

As far as banning Pep Boys crap, DO IT! Whose things swarm all over LA and other cities in huge packs/gangs of them, 30+, ride up and down the LA flood control canal hike and bike trails.

They are cheap two strokes that need to go.

As for real ATVs and MC from real MFGs, they are getting the short end of the stick, I think...however....I read that the MFGs didn't not apply on time to get their products tested so shame on them. I also heard they have a year to get their act together before this kicks in.

I don't care for Obama one bit but to blame this one piece of legislation on him is a bit childish. If you want to blame him for anything begin with the piece of pork that everyone gets to take a big bite of.
 
Clearly there are only three causes to all problems in the world: god, sunspots, and the internet. If one of those doesn't fit then you might as well just off yourself because the world is coming to an end.
 
Ok just in case anyone didnt know I am completely anti Obama.

However he did not do this, I stood up for Bush the same way and Obama deserves the same. No more No less.

This is our incompetent idiot worthless malingering useless Senate and Congress.

Anybody else think hanging all of the Senate and Congress would be a good start?

You live in Denmark Steve. Not in the US. You dont get a vote on what happens here. Just like I dont get to help decide who runs Denmark.

We have a bill of rights here. Our founders fought and died for it. I intend to keep it.

Hows that EU working out for you guys anyway? :eek:
LOL LOL LOL

Yes! it would be a good start, but why didn't obama stop this Sh*t if he doesn't support this bill? the dems control both senate and congress and they will do anything obama wants them to do. This new law will cost dealers $10,000-15,000 a month and cause thousands of jobs to be lost .
 
So anyone very familiar with lead related problems?

It is just a classification problem that these devices fell under toys. I don't believe anyone set out to deliberately ban these devices it was just an oversite.

Glad to hear that

And the problem with this law is that it was written stupidly.

Seems like it
 
I'm not a Bush hater ,and i'm not an Obama fan either.I do however hope that the bill's , laws and packages Obama signs will turn our economy around.on that same note I don't blame Bush for the shape of our ecomony.I totaly beleive it's Dick Cheney's doing!!!the man is a former c.e.o. of Haliburton!!!!!!! ask any military man who's been to Iraq who is supplying them and feeding them and washing thier uniform's!!all Haliburton and their subsideries.let's not forget that Haliburton is in the oil business!!!!! Get mad if you want I want punk when comes time too fight won't be no pun!!! LOL :rockon::rockon:
 
Well to answer your question with my opinion.

Obama is a idiot and tool. He can barely speak with out uhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh its like watching Spicolli stoned on mushrooms.

He promised everybody a icecream sandwich, some people want the sandwich and others want to know where the ice cream is coming from and who has to pay for it. We lost. Everybody gets a ice cream sandwich.

I dont think his intention was to sign a bill that outlawed dirtbikes for kids. He is just to dumb to know. Bush was just to dumb too. He would of signed it as well.

Then again its the least of our worries right now. They have tied our economy solid with currency swaps to korea, china, and several other countries that if they fail we will left holding lots of worthless paper while they have useful dollars. Bernake is and has went way way way over the line of what he is allowed to do.

Obama seems to also be a huge fan of tax cheats.

Basicly Chicago politics in the Whitehouse. Woooo!!!!! go team.

You know I still havent heard one person say hey Steve hanging all of congress and the Senate would be a horrible idea and present any ideas why it would be worse than what we have now. I have mentioned it to everyone I know. Not one. We could do better picking radom names out of a phone book.
 
Yes! it would be a good start, but why didn't obama stop this Sh*t if he doesn't support this bill?

What exactly would you have President Obama do? I'd like to know what you think he should have done about it. And be specific about which of his executive powers he should have used to overturn this law. I've got a test in my American Government class tomorrow, and so the more I know, the better.

I'll be sitting here reading about checks and balances and eagerly awaiting your reply.

Manufacturers should provide warning of any hazards in toys and it should be up to the PARENTS to decide if it's something that they would let their kids have not the government.

Of course, legislation is just responding to outcry of angry parents who didn't know that those toys were dangerous.

So...

The government failed to legislate responsibly.

The parents failed to protect their children.

The toy companies failed to warn their consumers.

And the cycle of blame continues

He should tell nancy and harry and the rest of the worthless ahole's that there are far more important things to vote on . And stop wasting tax payers money on communist B.S. this is not the Russia . Nancy and Harry need to be finding way's to put people to work and this will only cause more job loses. Oh ,I forgot to be specific about executive powers well let's see .... how about doing the same thing he did to overturn the Bush laws like closing gitmo . What ever happen to YES WE CAN!!! HOPE!!!!
 
We could do better picking random names out of a phone book.

In a sense, isn't that what happens anyway? I mean, how many people do you think really do any kind of research on the candidates before they vote for them?

If that were the case Ron Paul would be our president and Obama wouldn't have made it out of the primary's.

As I read this I hear about "Octomom"

Is she the one that I can trust to protect her children??

Ive seen the job many parents do on their kids and it would be one thing if it were just letting watch too much TV...
But
1. Some parents cannot be trusted to supply their kids with necessary skills
2. Our tax dollars have to take care of these kids

That being said... this keeps me employed, but Id rather safe parenting.
