In reply to the discussion: Why does anybody need more than 7 bullets at a time? [View all]jberryhill
(62,444 posts)82. You don't have to take them away
I never understand this objection.
Did anyone "take away" automobiles that get ten miles to the gallon? Where are they all?
Did anyone "take away" all the storm doors that didn't have safety glass in them?
Did anyone "take away" lead paint?
Did anyone "take away" cribs with slats that were too far apart?
None of these things are sold anymore.
