You could call this a sequel to my last question, but I was genuinely curious. Question inspired by someone I know joking about being arrested for selling donuts to someone who died as a result because they didn't need junk food.

Sugar increases the risk of health complications, therefore selling products containing added sugar is assault

Obviously, anyone selling guns would be slippery slope murder.

But, military contractors would be committing slippery slope war crimes, including genocide.

Gas stations for selling those crack pipes which facilitate drug use.

Car dealerships would be aiding & abetting. They'd also be involved with vehicular manslaughter, drug trafficking, sex trafficking, ...really any trafficking. Add all transportation forms to the list.

Bars for DUIs and related deaths. Also, child abuse, physical & sexual assault.

All comms technology, including phones & computers, would be involved in espionage & conspiracy. Internet device manufacturers and ISPs would be engaged in facilitating data piracy & fraud.

Hey, those paper roses make really cute gifts for your crackhead sweetie.

In BC, Canada bars and servers can be held liable up to millions of dollars for DUIs and drink driving accidents when they over-server someone.

The mandatory government licensing course for all who server alcohol, Serving It Right, makes it clear and even cites an example where a server sent someone home in cab. The person them left their home in their car, and the server was fined.

Oh you’re good at running? Running from what, hmmm…?

You walk or you die.

Charging your phone is murder because coal-fired power plants kill 43,000 people per year (in the US alone).

Giving birth is a capital crime, because you're bringing someone who will one day die into the world

Outlaw schools. They provide an education like chemistry or physics which can help people try to get away with murder.

It's true! I've seen Breaking Bad!

Rubbing one out lowers aggression, ergo masturbation is now mandatory. You all know what to do here, people.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 13 hours ago

Counterpoint: masturbation is genocide and menstruation is murder as it is a failure to bring a life to the world. Therefore everyone beyond puberty is guilty of murder by default.

Right? Especially the priests
Oh my god ohmygod I’m going to hell! After I raped those three boys, I masturbated!”

Oh who are you kidding? It's no more guilt than we already had drilled into us by doing 12 years on the inside.

Losing your job increases your likelihood to steal by like a bajillion percent.

Empty your desk and report to the prison by noon.

Or, Employment is now mandatory and considered a human right?

I sure wouldn't want to be in the rope business.

Baking bread is the same as moonshining
