I'm so tired of the people who are being idiots.

We have plenty of problems in so many ways to deal with. Here lately we have people being shot just for knocking a house front door, getting into the wrong vehicle & pulling into the wrong driveway. Now in Colorado, a young woman, was killed when three young men(who have been identified and arrested) were throwing rocks at vehicles. One of those rocks went through the windshield of a 20 year old woman’s car, striking in the head killing her. These weren’t just ordinary rocks, they were large landscaping rocks.

The three 18 year old men had thrown rocks at cars on the night of April 19 around 10:45 for about 45 minutes before the woman’s car was hit killing the driver.
This happened near Arvada, Co. a suburb of Denver.

This was senseless and I hope these young men go away for a very long time.

As a truck driver, I don’t like driving at night due to things like this. Several years on Halloween near Walnut Ia, 60 miles east of Omaha, a pumpkin was thrown from an overpass hitting a semi truck killing the driver which the truck struck other vehicles seriously injuring others. I still get the shivers when I think about that. My father was headed in opposite way and was about a half hour behind and come up on the accident scene.

Had a similar incident 30 years ago with kids dropping bricks and cinder blocks from an overpass above I 95. Killed one person hurt several. I late the police you my backyard for surveillance because the overpass was easily visible from my back deck. They eventually caught the kids when one started running his mouth in school. It was said. Three or four teenagers who ruined their lives doing stupid stuff.

9. The way reQublicans want to control everything in schools

CRT, books, don't say gay etc, our Senate should pass legislation requiring schools to teach students how
to be civil to other people. And then watch the House vote against it, they enjoy an uncivil society.

The lack of self-awareness...   :thatsright:  How much "civilness" is considered racist again? 

Noticing a low melanin content in the mugshots.  How many incidents like this don't get covered in the news or even reported to police due to the higher melanin content of the perps and/or victims?

3. Kids have always done crazy stuff. But these days they're doing crazy DANGEROUS stuff

And thinking its funny
   

and posting it for internet points, cause the parents are absentia, not monitoring the kids screens or activities, or whipping their butts for some of their talk and actions, b.  We get kids assigned to my school for dangerous internet pranks, or just doing something stupid at school then posting the video, which gets them caught.

Was it at the 2008 St. Paul, MN Republican Convention when "protesters" threw rocks from freeway overpasses - or planned to but were prevented -hoping to take out conventioneers? I doubt that those "protesters" were Rs. OTOH, where was MM during that time?

The DUmmies are slipping. It took nine whole posts until a DUmmie blamed Republicans.

And not a single one has blamed President Trump - YET.

Stupid people started throwing stuff off of overpasses the day after overpasses were invented. This isn't a new phenomena.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
