None of the accessories of civilization can be taken for granted where moonbats hold power — not even something as ubiquitous as keys:

Come July, common keys for houses, cars, boats, and motorcycles will be illegal in Minnesota, save for uncertain intervention from the state Legislature.

That’s when the state’s ban on the manufacture, sale, or import of keys, toys, dishes, and other common items containing more than a tiny percentage of lead or cadmium goes into effect.

Almost all keys exceed the absurdly draconian 0.009% limit on lead content. The purpose is to prevent children who eat keys from consuming dangerous heavy metals. Since virtue-signaling do-gooder tyranny is an end in itself among Democrats, the limit does not need to make any sense; it just needs to be severe, to show they mean business.

On a tip from Franco.
