School Kids Dying in Ohio: It's a Gun Problem

68. Well it wasn't rare for the parents of the kid who got burned. You know the logical next step.

Gasoline is way too easy to obtain for being such a deadly item. Obviously we need to make it illegal for felons ( especially convicted arsonists) to buy gasoline. Implement an at the pump background check system modeled after the NICS background check system. Any time you buy gas, the system automatically checks your info with the FBI to make sure that you haven't been anything except for a model citizen. Come back the next day to pick up your gas.

Another serious concern is having large amounts of gasoline in one place. Tanks of over 10 gallons serve no useful sporting purpose and are thus only good for using to douse and kill large groups of people. Only the government should be able to have more than 10 gallons of gas in one tank. Gas theft is another problem. If your gas is stolen and used to set someone on fire, you should be held criminally responsible. This is why "reasonable" gas storage protocols are necessary.

Now the repub/big oil critics may say that only a small percentage of gas users actually use gas to kill people. This is irrelevant as even one death is to many. In an effort to save the lives of precious little children we need to make buying gas more difficult.
