I found this article on Fox News, though I imagine it's discussed elsewhere, about London attempting to protect people from themselves again.
Go ahead and read the article. I'll wait.
Done?
HOW STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO WALK INTO A LAMPPOST WHILE TYPING A TEXT MESSAGE?!
I text more than I should, mainly because I need a new phone, as my battery is shot. But I have never walked into a lamppost because of typing out a message or dialing a phone number. I've walked into scaffolding posts because I was caught up in a conversation with a friend walking next to me, but I've never been so distracted by my phone that I would do something so patently stupid.
How about, instead of protecting people from themselves, you let them walk into the posts so they learn some common sense?
Ach. I give up. People will always be stupid, and politicians will always try to protect them from their own stupidity.
