As for the pipe, I just thought it was kind of cool, and an interesting way to try lots of cool flavoured tobaccos.
I honestly dress casually 'cause where I'm from, wearing something with buttons on that isn't a cold weather jacket or jeans is a good sign someone's more of a gaping rear end in a top hat than the goatman, but I did get a pipe when I was introduced to weed and it saved my rear end a couple times in college during... let's call 'em "unplanned interactions with officers of the law." Cops get nuts over glassware and brushed aluminum, but if you have a varnished pipe, you're just some jackass kid playing with tobacco to them.

As for hats? gently caress 'em, my hair's too wild for that.

To be fair, I knew a guy who was like "brah we should go to Redding for Spring Break" and I was like "what the gently caress you wanna go there for, the only things in Redding is trees and meth" so you can do a lot worse than China.

The problem is that most proponents of raw milk aren't actually farmers and don't have access to stuff that's less than 24 hours old; they just get them from shady health food stores run by burnouts who can barely remember their own names, let alone when their stock came in last.

I dunno if this makes me the idiot, but while I'm glad your heart is in the right place over this, it's important to note that "friend of the family" or "nigga" isn't empowering at all and you shouldn't let yourself fall into this guy's fallacy trap. If the owner--or even every last person affiliated with the entire franchise--was Native American, it still wouldn't be okay for them to call themselves the Redskins because it disenfranchises everyone who doesn't want the term applied to them.

If the only reason you didn't go to college is because you didn't learn how to enter your name, address, SSN, and either your or your parents' credit card information into an online form designed to be exceptionally idiot-proof--when I was in uni, California State University divided each of those into an individual step each--then there's probably a different reason you didn't make it into higher education.

It's more than that they just don't care: they're going out of their way to cause poo poo because there are people who do care. I went to school with this rear end in a top hat who mixes his fuel with heptane because he heard that it's a worse pollutant than octane.

Yeah, Japanese has a lot of simplified characters that represent a single sound even in their simplest sentences. When you don't see those, almost guaranteed it's Chinese.

Should all of those be banned? Or is it only when some percentage of the population can have a reaction? What percentage is that? Where should it be banned? Just schools? What about airplanes or buses?
In these cases, it's generally a local ban rather than something that gets enforced on a federal level. Airline doesn't wanna deal with the marginal chance of having someone die on a flight from peanut allergy? Time to stop serving peanuts. It's not some big conspiracy to accommodate those with allergies; it's people in positions of responsibility who don't want to deal with the repercussions of not preemptively addressing a potential (and, importantly, known) problem.

If someone is severely affected or, as is often the case, dies because they weren't aware of an allergy, that's a legitimate case and not some "I was robbing his house and I slipped on his wet floor" lawsuit bullshit. And even if it wasn't, you gotta have some compassion.
