      If you truly want to solve something then you have to make some draconian-like laws and enforce it with rigorous effort. Sometimes the harshest measures are the safest measures.

        Now tell everyone how banning a device which can’t be used for car thefts, will somehow help with car thefts.

        I think we’d all like to know.

        Or, you know, it’s incredibly stupid to ban. But what do I know? Other than that you can’t use a flipper to steal a car of course.
