While we're at it, lets ban perfumes and colognes as well, since they
irritate my nose, make me sneeze, and are likely carcinogenic when
(as the product is intended) inhaled.  A very reasonable approach.

Since I hate the toxic stench from 2-cycle engines, let's also ban
the public use of outboard motors on boats, jet skis, snow RVs,
chain saws, and lawn mowers.  A very reasonable approach.

I hate the smell of cooked fish.  Let's ban that too.

Lemme see...what else is there that *I* hate that I can have the
government prevent others from using?
