Its gonna get to the point kids will become criminals, too. Limit the gum and they'll find others ways to get more. They'll probably resort sneaking it in in pez dispensers. Then the liberals will go after pez candy.

Plus, there should be a six piece limit. No one should be allowed to have the plastic boxes of gum like in the pic from a MMD post. Any more than six pieces = jail time.

I used to see how many gums I could fit into my mouth at one time. many. years. ago

Personally, I think that we need stricter gum control. It's getting more and more common to see gum spit out on the sidewalks. It's not even safe to walk the streets anymore.

I don't think anyone under the age of 18 should be allowed to purchase gum.... the danger to teeth and overall health is just too great....

And what if the gum falls into the wrong hands?

THINK OF THE CHILDREN, PEOPLE!!!!
No can do...the SegGum Amendment will se to that.

Oh He is sovereign.

The question should not be why does gum fall into the hands of bad ppl, but why do bad ppl have gum fall into their hands. Or sumptin' like that.
just remember.... when gum is outlawed, only outlaws will have gum....

You can have my gum when you pry it from my warm, sticky fingers....

Seeing we have a thread devoted to weapons of mass destruction(gee, thanks Desdichado), we need one about gum.

What's your favorite gum(s)?
Three things Mom was entirely against us ever doing:
Smoking.
Drinking Pepsi.
Chewing gum.

(The first time she was pregnant, my oldest brother took so much of her calcium, her teeth went bad. Meanwhile, she did all three of those things, and the dentist told her they were all bad for her teeth. She had her "do as I say, not as I do" moments.)

Because of that, I don't chew gum.

How did that Chinese saying go?

Your actions speak so loudly that I can't hear what you are saying...

...or was it Emerson who said that?

LOL

What the heck did I just write.
I am fluent in typos, so this is what you wrote.

My mother actually has a fit when I chew gum. I just got my braces off this year, and she insists that chewing gum will ruin them again.

BTW, sugar will ruin your teeth over the long haul. I know. I've already hauled long.
