Ban Gas Stoves?

A US Consumer Product Safety commissioner said that gas stoves should be banned because they cause indoor pollution:

https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/09/busin...ncy/index.html

Of course AOC was completely on board with it…then someone on Twitter asked her what people should do if there is a power outage and their electric stoves won’t work.



What’s next? A mass extermination of cows to save the ozone?

The ozone layer has already been healing and will be completely healed within our lifetime.

But we can never celebrate the victories. Only onto the next FAKE imminent doom, with these clowns.

First the bureaucrat twig-boys came for Hank's boy, now they try to take away the glory of propane powered stoves and thereby his living? We cannot stand for this!

If it weren't for 24/7 Outrage Porn you'd have nothing to do with yourselves at all. Maybe wait 5 f*cking minutes and see what's really going on before you start tilting at yet another windmill. You stupid, stupid f*cks.

No lives, no purpose, nothing but "Durrrr hurrrr let's skim da headlinez an' see what I can screech about today! Dat be fun!" And most times you haven't the slightest goddamn clue what you're even on about.

Thanks for 20 years of misery and rot, I f*cking hate you all. Hasta.

You should've stopped with that. Because you're right. But we're not the ones doing that, putting that out there into the world.

Yep. CNN started it. They love their fear porn.

To what possible other end could that be but... eventually going after gas stoves?

Well I mean, some gas stoves require electricity in order to work....

We actually don't have a gas stove at home but the wife really wants to upgrade to one. Personally, I've seen enough action movies to where the idea of a gas stove is a little scary to me... so I'm good either way.

I honestly haven't seen a gas stove since I left Mexico.

But yeah, it sounds like they overplayed their hand and now trying to subtly backtrack but not really.

I’d be willing to bet the restaurant industry would go berserk if they had to make the switch from gas to electric! If you’re really into cooking it’s almost universally accepted that gas is far superior to electric

The electric igniter wouldn’t work during a power outage, but you can still light the gas burner with a match and cook the meals.

Our family-owned restaurant uses gas stoves to cook the food, so HECK NO, OUR STOVES WON’T GO!
