Lawmakers call for ban on Home Depot Trucks

Yes, I know I made y'all click the link with that headline; it's called clickbait. My apologies if anyone is upset. No lawmakers have actually submitted such a bill ... to my knowledge.

SO -- the Uzbek drove a Home Depot truck into a crowd, killing 8 and injuring 11 or more.

Where are the calls to ban this deadly weapon that can obviously cause mass deaths in the blink of an eye?

It would make as much sense as calling for a gun ban everytime someone kills someone with a gun.

Vehicles seem to be becoming the weapon of choice for terrorists.

When a gun is used its the gun's fault. When the truck is used it is the driver's fault.

How can it be the drivers fault - America's Christians forced him to do it.

There is more evidence to link this terrorist act to Home Depot than there is to linking the Las Vegas shooting to the NRA.

Actually, I heard some liberals this morning on talk radio about implementing security measures for truck rental.

I'm shaking my head, because when you say it was liberals, I'm almost certain it's true....

What about knife control? Of course, border control would be racist.

and garbage trucks

This was a "fully automatic" truck, loaded up with a large magazine full of volatile fuel. No one needs such a vehicle. A manual transmission with 2 gallons of gas should be the limit for these terrible tools of death.

Yes, we will need to develop garbage cars!

Ban living and working in New York

That's a bit of an overreach but it might work.

What about banning semi-automatic matches to prevent arson?

Do you mean the small ones - or just the large ones?

Where's the "laugh" tag?

Just the ones that resemble military weapons....
