How STUPID Mankind

Post by High Threshold »

· We know that politicians are not going to represent the majority of us but we continue to vote for them.

· We know the church is rife with pedophiles but we continue sending our children to parochial schools.

· We know that killing and dying on the battlefield is nasty business but we continue to enlist in the military.

· We know the NSA is listening and reading all of our communications but we continue writing down our most personal details on FaceBook and Twitter.

I've been wondering in this day and age, while we are trying to be so politically correct and not "offend" anybody, why are we seeing so much more violence in schools, and churches and public places like malls?

Outstanding. I'd expound, but the NSA is listening and reading all of our communications.

I can give you lots of reasons why, I just can't figure out the reason it's become "popular", so to speak. Frustration (that's the "why") can be taken out in so many other ways.
