Tide pods and a few other brands are locked in a box. Why? Because a few idiots ate them in a challenge and got sick or died. This is the answer to that. Now what about mass shooting murders? Why is it hard to lawmakers to find a solution?

1. Really? This is your analogy?

If you really can't answer this question then I can't help you.

2. I know, good huh, straightforward and effective. Congress acted on that in a bipartisan way.

And that was only for a few people getting sick or dying.

4. Are you really claiming Congress passed laws to require that laundry pods be secured?

6. I'd say no he's not

Be careful, there may be a straw man waiting for you.

7. I know, I like to just spell it out.

9. I applaud spelling it out.

Pointing and laughing is fine, too.

10. That's the next step!

8. It's stupid as fuck

And so is your graphic.

3. Took 'em only a few hours to make sure no more dogs die in overheads, too...

But these are the easy ones.

5. You might want to reconsider sharing this one

The lock boxes are in place to deter theft, nothing more. Although the challenge did increase theft of individual pods in stores, many stores in higher theft areas were securing these long before this challenge thing started. Stores that started locking them up after the challenge did so because of the theft increase; not to stop the eating of them.
