Ogre’s Politics and Views

Sometimes there’s a lot of stories I want to comment on, but I just don’t want to post 100 posts a day. So you’ll see one of these little “news blips” posts with a bunch of stories I just can’t ignore. Like these:

Young drivers don’t wear seat belts. Yeah, so? This is news? Do you suppose it’s coincidence that federal department of “traffic safety” is running a campaign about “click it or ticket” at the same time? I sure don’t. What a total damn load of crap and waste of money. Hold on, let me check my Constitution to see where The People gave the federal government the authority over seat belts. Yeah, I know, I’m dreaming. Only in my dreams does the Constitution actually mean anything.

Hey look, a few members of the government uneducation system have some sense. But the foolish parents are mad that their kid was duct-taped into his room at a hotel. These fools actually believe that their student could have been trapped. I guess they’re too rich and special to have actually ever dealt with duct tape before. And I have to wonder how many other charges they’d be filing if their child escaped and got hurt? I also wonder how the students found out it was duct taped in the first place…

When will we declare open season on dangerous animals? This isn’t an isolated case. Pit bulls kill people. That’s what they do. The “owners” of these dogs should be jailed for murder. But just to show you how utterly insane our “justice” system is — the parents of the child who was killed by dogs in the street are being investigated by social services. As you know by now, if you have kids and you’re being “investigated,” you should run out of the state NOW.

And in case you need a reminder, if you’re a government employee, you are exempt from rules. If you walk away from your child for a few seconds, you might get arrested, jailed, and will likely never see your children again. But if you’re a police officer, stopping someone for a dog-law violation, you may abandon kids on the roadside at will. At midnight.
