One, two.......and at what number do you want the world to stop

Just how did we get from warning labels on products containing
peanuts to a worldwide ban on them?

A number of groups (the allergic and "assorted nutters") have called
for banning peanuts on US airline flights, and several airlines have
apparently
decided to go along rather than risk confrontation and bad mouthing
(or
law
suits)

You are so full of clever crap Olivers you stink. As you might guess,
my wife's former roommate did extensive research into the problem when
she found out that her child was sick all the time because of the mere
presence of peanuts in the air he breathes. Now, do you suspect that
there is a minority of 5 maybe 10 people causing the airlines to
rethink the fare they serve to their passengers, or do you think it's
a bigger problem than your infinitiesimaly small brain can comprehend?
Do you think that being contained in a metal tube that isn't
recycling the air effectively that the passengers are breathing could
be a problem for someone with an allergy? Finally, what the hell is
wrong with you that you wouldn't give up your penny ante bag of
peanuts when you know it is painful for others? Are you that full of
**** that you don't care? Or are you just too dense to understand the
situation? I know the afflicted could just stay home, but what harm
is it to you not to get a bag of..."beloved".. peanuts to chew on
while you're flying as a passenger compared to the tens of thousands
of people who suffer from peanut allergies? You love your peanuts?
What a jerk. The kid DIED from the allergy. He was beloved too, and
he wasn't a peanut.

The children allergic to peanuts are far, far, more likely to suffer a
reaction in a hundred more common venues of exposure. Any supermarket or
baseball stadium would put an allergic child at greater risk.

Yes, you silly twit, the afflicted have to stay home (or some location
similarly peanut free), because as with literally dozens of other food
stuffs (including literally dozens of fast food outlets using peanut oils
for frying), society is simply not going to ban peanut use or cultivation.

People die from allergic reactions every day. Can we or should we try to
eliminate every food stuff which might cause such a reaction? Do we take
peanut butter out of supermarkets because a child allergic to peanuts might
go into shock if someone opens a jar.

I suffer from several allewrgies, fortunately only one of them to an extent
that the reaction could be fatal. But neither I, not you, nor any sufferer
(or 10,000 sufferers or a million sufferer) are enough to remove
