Banning Hand-Held Cell Phones

Legislators in Colorado are debating a bill that would ban talking on hand-held cell phones while driving. The emotional push for this is coming from a woman whose daughter was killed by a woman talking on a cell phone while driving. The big business support comes from Verizon Wireless. Now that wouldn't have anything to do with Verizon's desire to sell non-hand-held devices, would it? This is casebook liberal fascism.

I say prosecute the woman if she was negligent. Do not take away any more freedom from the rest of us who do not use cell phones irresponsibly.

You got my vote Bob. I have never understood why people want to pass a law to punish responsible people for the few who aren't. And juding by the usage of cell phones while driving, 99% of us (myself included) are responsible with it.
