    Your country is so polarized that folks read headlines not the whole story and go off half cocked without looking into the facts.
    This is one of those subjects that can escalate into outright feuds, Everyone knows what needs to be done with both parties but no one seems willing to step up and slip a burdizzo around the parts that need removing right above the shoulders on most of them. it is also not a topic that needs to be delved in here as much as I am guilty as often being the instigator in topic straying

    The point remains...a gas stove in that leaky little cottage isn't going to hurt anyone...with it's fumes at least.

    The only way it is ever going to hurt anyone is to turn on the valves and not allow the burners to light.
    That whole asthma in children thing I really have to question the validity of any if there is any science behind a household appliance being the culprit. Not forcing or even letting kids go outside to play keeping them cooped up in some apartment or house with all of the windows and doors closed tight for most of the time no live plants in the home to replenish and freshen the air neither the father or the mother ever being home to clean the dust out of the house at least twice a year a house needs every surface or everything in it washed not just dusted with a feather duster, more often if there are children living there who may be highly susceptible to child hood asthma, but the most important thing might just be turn those carpet crawlers into mud puddle players

    I qualified with "with the fumes at least".

    It appears the media has succeeded again. A ban was merely mentioned as one response to a report that hasn't even been fully investigated yet. The words ban on gas appliances was picked up as fact and the proceeding movement toward one. There wasn't even time to get half way to half-cocked before it became a national crisis... Sad.

    Never let a crisis go to waste even the invented ones they are used almost exclusively to sway the minds of the less informed to create a panic and as a means of directing people's attention away from more important matters looming in the wings, the powers that be do not want to be in the public's eye.

    You do realize that you are the only one that went completely off topic and into a rant about the Democratic government...right?

    yeah I know one of my biggest downfalls is my total distrust in any form of government no matter the party or the structure in every country
