Vengeance, Drugs and More Drugs

Are they going to ask for the death penalty too? The need for revenge is absolutely ridiculous and for the coroner to determine that a man's death from infection is due to his being shot over forty years ago is absolute bunk and was rendered out of spite. In the ensuing forty years, Walter Barclay could have died from a myriad of causes, most of which could probably have occurred on the job that he no longer had and others from participating in normal life activities. William Barnes has served his time for shooting the officer and should not be charged with murder on top of it. We are an extremely vengeful and venal nation to want to extract more punishment from someone who has already served his time. We have no shame.

So, rockers have a shortened life expectancy, especially if they are American. Sex, drugs and rock and roll. Plus loads of hangers on willing to party at their expense. Little Amy Winehouse is following a long and tragic tradition. Such a shame. And a waste. John Bonham drowned in his own vomit, not the way I want to go out. That would be old age. In my sleep.

Why don't they just start every child on psychiatric drugs as soon as the pop out of the womb? According to recent studies, children with ADHD and bipolar disorder are under diagnosed and under treated. Why is everyone so determined to classify childhood behaviors as a mental illness? They get no exercise, no fresh air, their food is high in sugar and salt, obesity is rampant, while television and video games have been their baby sitters for years. No wonder they have issues. Is childhood mental illness increasing in other countries? Do China, Norway or Japan have these problems? How about the kids in Iraq, Afghanistan and the West Bank? What is being done to address their more than likely post traumatic stress disorder? Oh wait, they don't have money and they can't afford the medications, therefore they don't have any problems.


Boohoo, try being black
. Maybe, just maybe if they weren't so militant about their right to exist while ignoring the rights of others, people wouldn't be so willing to use them as a scapegoat. You'd think they would have learned to get along after the Holocaust, but they are too busy making others suffer. All in the name of Zionism. Whatever happened to two wrongs don't make a right?

  1. This has got to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard. This, or locking up the 6 year old for kissing the girls. I'll have to meditate on it.

  2. This reminds me of my favourite joke about dying- I want to die in my sleep, like my Grandfather did, not kicking and screaming like the other passengers in his car!
