Just when you thought you've seen and read it all...... Ban The EVIL ROPE!
But rope has come to the center of an expanding argument lately over just how much rope one should be allowed to own in a modern culture. Some argue that nobody really needs more than about a two-foot length of rope. Others argue that any length of rope is dangerous and that a modern Europe has no use for such a dangerous menace
Katarina Van Hoeven is a young Dutch woman obsessed with ridding her country of rope, one of the nation’s earliest proponents of stricter rope control. “Who needs more than two feet of rope? And why?” she inquires, her questions clearly rhetorical. “I can understand maybe if you are a professional cave explorer or deck hand on a boat, but any more than two feet of length for your average citizen, well, that’s excessive. It’s dangerous. It’s inviting death, if you ask me. What else is rope good for but more people dying?”
