Examples:
-Oh, I always wear a helmet while riding my bicycle in dangerous areas and there should be a law requiring everybody to wear helmets.
-Smoking is nasty and I hate the smell! Nobody should be allowed to smoke in public.
I hope everybody recognizes that personal thoughts, opinions, and feelings on an issue are NOT a good reason for creating laws or policies. Whether you like or dislike something is irrelevant in terms of whether it should be required or prohibited by law or other policy.

What I'm saying it that having one or two gold tooth is fine. My mom used to have a gold tooth and I never had a problem with it. But grillz are a different story. Grillz cover more than two teeth. Grillz are unattractive and are a big turn off for me.
