Apparently, in their endless pursuit of dumbing down the gene pool, our betters have banned the window blinds with dangling cords.
Is there still anywhere such blinds can be ordered?
If not, are there any commie-mandated blinds that don't suck?

They kill small children. Not really a moral test.

So does anything with small parts, swimming pools, bathtubs, honey, anything with peanuts, etc, etc, and let's not forget the evil motor vehicles!   My point being that anything and everything can kill children and people in general.   But our retarded government shouldn't be in the business of legislating common sense, parenting, morality, etc.....primarily because our retarded government has non of the above.

We can’t have anything that actually works well because people that supposedly are all in favor of no restrictions on guns fully support restricting everything else “for the children”.

If you have corded blinds that kill your children then the person who installed them is an idiot and you were too stupid to have children or cats in the first place.


With blinds in the down position at the sill.  Grab the cord, push plastic bell up cord, tie an overhand knot and trim excessive cordage.

Meh, pools kill more.

How many do illegal immigrants kill?  

We really should get rid of those too, it's for the children - not a moral test.

I have ones with the stick you have to twist. They suck.

Next time I'm doing motorized and I'll put them on a schedule.
Get both is the answer.

Yep. I had to redo my blinds to the cordless type, as they install different.

And I just got a nastygram from the apmt mgnt, as my Jack Russell tears them up within hours of installation.

I hear you OP. My orange cat chewed the cord on mine, which apparantly were custom order bc they are more than 100 inches wide, so I just ordered a roll of 2mm blind string to try to repair it.

I miss the 1970s at times when issues like this never happened.

So my house full of pre-ban, custom, wooden, corded blinds is worth more now?

Blinds in general are a pain in the ass. I'd rather have curtains.

All of us survived a world with corded blinds and good gas cans, and look how stupid we collectively are.

The water certainly tasted different with some of the old garden hoses.
