My family plays horseshoes. 16 oz metal ‘U’ shapes being tossed through the air while drinking beer. One could argue that the problem with lawn darts was that they were too light, allowing children without proper sense to throw them too far

When a politician speaks in public the public can immediately respond to lies and falsehoods. Why should politicians be protected from feedback online? But I do agree that anonymous posts to politicians should eligible for blocking.
