My drill bits cause cancer?

California is the grand experiment in government excess.

California is the grand experiment in government excess.

California propositions come from the people (special interest groups). A bunch of signatures and it gets put on the ballet. Then lots of money for scare tactics ads. Spook the sheeple to vote and you get prop 65 cancer warning stickers on everything.

Other places where the bureaucrats and scientists actually know reality make the regulations you get less of this sky is falling labels.

Not only may cause cancer but also might contain peanuts.

Anything else?

Pretty sure the HF drill bits I bought were made from peanuts. WHY did I NOT see the warning?

How far is California going to take this Prop 65 warning?

Don't worry about it, it only causes cancer in California. But, when in California....don't touch or eat anything, it's one big cancer ball!

Some of you may want to try this. It is hilarious. Several years ago my motorcycle riding buddy & I went to Costco. He found me in one of the isles and showed me some product with the "know to be cancer causing" CA sticker. It was peal off sticker. Sooooo..... he wanted me to help him. Went back to where the product was and pealed off half a dozen stickers.

Took these stickers over to where all the toilet paper was located. Pasted these stickers in conspicuous spots on the bulk TP packages.

Wasn't long until an eagle eyed lady spotted one of the stickers. Big conflagration ensued between the lady and a Costco employee & manager.

Thank goodness we were one isle over - I laughed so hard and I almost peed myself.

Were they made from peanut butter? Some tools do seem to have about the same hardness as peanut butter

I always wonder when my jar of peanuts has a warning that they were processed in the same factory which processes nuts. Where else would you expect them to be processed?

Did you ever see the Stephen King movie "Needful Things"? Some of those harmless little pranks had some very bad consequences. Just saying.

I guess the sticker might influence a purchase decision for someone that lives in fear all their life. The stickers are not confined to California. I had seen where some manufacturers were putting them on every product from the factory as they never know where the product might be shipped to and sold. My neighbor just bought a Kubota 1140 from our local dealer. It has a Prop 65 label prominently displayed on the dash.

Probably because peanuts are a legume whereas nuts are a fruit.
