This is something so many people do not seem to understand: if you ban something, you only prevent law abiding citizens from using it, it won't stop the law breakers who were going to use it regardless of what the law says. There are people who DDOS video game servers in the US as to not lose the game, even though it's a felony.
- jakobegger 7y ago> you only prevent law abiding citizens from using it Most people are law abiding citizens most of the time, so laws are not pointless. And laws typically give us a way to come after those who violate the law. Sure, laws won't fix a problem once and for all, but if they can reduce the problem by 90% they are a big win.
