    Also, the correct demonym is "American" not "USer." I have never before seen or heard that term.

      I know, but I like puns.

            A bicycle isn't a product wich only have one purpose - to kill.
            So you'd ban bows?

                No.
                Why not? The only purpose of an archery bow is to kill.

Carrying guns is protected by the Constitution, but same sex relationships are illegal in most states. You don't even have to be in a relationship, just self identified as gay or lesbian to lose jobs is many US states. F*cking amazing! Why do you USers put up with this stupid sh*t?
                  Same sex relationships are illegal? Prove this.

                    Here's a thought, how about instead of stupid ass laws setting out what you can't fire people for, why not just pass laws that lay out what people CAN be fired for?

                      I know the UK is desperate for more business, but this isn't going to work. China, India, and Mexico are still more attractive.
                      No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                        Because people should in general be able to be fired on an employer's whim for the sake of efficient business.

                          Firing someone on a whim is not efficient business.

                            Well, yes, but neither are lawsuits over why someone was fired.

                              Which is an excellent incentive.
