Anyway, motorcycles may or may not cause an injury. Smoking nearly always causes some sort of injury to creep up whether it ends up manifesting itself as something life changing or ending is another thing. It's never actually good for you.

And on that topic - motorcycles are good for you mentally. The keep your reflexes up, the get you to get outside and socialise.

How you gonna enforce that? You'll have to get in there and watch. But all you homophobes are closet queers anyway.

How do you enforce a ban on drinking or smoking ? :dunno:

It was an actual question dude. I am curious if you are one of those guys who is all for banning shit you don't like, but whine about it when it's something you support.

I would ask why the insult, but since I'm not a homophobe I wasn't really insulted.

No one is banning drinking or smoking. We tax them. You suggested taxing homosexuality. One of the dumbest suggestions I've ever heard.

Smoking is the dumbest choice I ever made. It's got a hold on me.

Something's gonna kill you man. They say it takes years off your life. How many, ten, twenty ? I wouldn't sweat it. It takes them off he end of your life. Those years are mostly you struggling to walk and shitting yourself anyway.

And there are a million of them. Being queer for instance. I wonder how our friend from NZ would feel about a tax on being queer ?

Technically it's a higher risk lifestyle. Drug abuse, alcoholism, domestic violence, suicide, and decreased lifespan. That's the problem with taxing stuff that isn't "safe". It makes no room for people who live more responsibly though may occasionally engage in some of those behaviors.
 
Since you mention it though taxing queer behavior would be pretty simple. Most queers are pretty obviously queer. Charge them 1% more for everything. Fat tax added at gay bars and everything having to do or cater to being queer.
 
Then we have motorcycle riding, roofing, living in democratic controlled cities ( i.e. shit holes.)

We were discussing taxing dangerous/harmful behaviors.. Of which being queer is one. Aids, monkey pox, etc.

Ridiculous. Dangerous sexual behaviour is possible no matter what one's orientation is.

While that is true, statistically gay people do not live as long, have higher rates of domestic violence, suicide, drug abuse, and alcoholism. All the risk taxes are assessed based on statistics, not what is possible. The same could be said for lifelong bachelors, they do not live as long or as healthy lives.

Statistically motorcyclists are more likely to engage in high risk behaviors.
 
I used to smoke 2 packs of Camel Lights a day.

When I started hacking up lung cookies I knew it was time to quit. That was 2012. I do like an occasional cigar. Like when I'm at my cabin or sitting around a bon fire. Or drinking.

Both of my parents and all of my grandparents smoked when I grew up so I was used to it. Mom and Dad would smoke in the car on long vacation trips with the windows CLOSED. But I was fascinated by cigarettes. I used to pull the butts out of the ashtray and break them apart and inspect them. As a kid that is. :lol:
