lschultz Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Heard on the news last night that area somewhere around Austin that is prone to flooding. This police officer was putting up blockades cause water was rising. Here comes this woman (think she was in a SUV) drives around him and the blockades and precedes to try and cross. Well she did not make it the officer had to tie a rope around himself going in there and get her out then he got swept down in the current and had to rescued and they had to take him to the hospital. I would throw the book at somebody that does something like that. Idiots they are everywhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenB Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'm more inclined to say that people should experience the consequences of their actions. Woman drives out into a flooded street? Wave to her as she is swept away. <shrug> oh well </shrug> Saving idiots like this just short circuits evolution. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 yeah, sometimes natural selection needs to be left alone to work its magic. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Uncle used to say that by giving welfare to lazy people who don't want to work and just have more and more kids.. that we're subsidizing stupidity. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHIEF DOC 99 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 As long as idiots are rewarded, more will come forward to claim that reward. Some folks spend more time & effort trying to 'get over & get paid' than they would developing natural talents. Most everyone has some talent and that talent should not be ignored or stifled. It's a mess ~ half the population is already on psych meds or have discontinued their use. And that's just those employed by the Federal Government in one way or another. The bigger government grows the worse things will get everywhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quigley3 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I believe the Constitution was originally written that only property holders were entitled to vote and over the years the states have eroded the standards so that everybody has a "right to vote". The "right to vote" does not exist in this country, nor is it found anywhere in our origins. But as more and more people vote that have no skin in the game, it makes me think of the quote (I am paraphrasing) that has been attributed to many: When the majority figures out they can vote themselves the money from the minority, the end is near. For those with a little bit of time on their hands, Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged is a good read. Published in 1957, it holds many prophecies to modern society. At 47 million pages, it requires some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toycar10 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 There used to be this thing called natural selection. Since we have made it safer for stupid people they are now overpopulating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
