What has happened to good ol common sense ?? It has given way to who ever shouts loud enough gets their way while the rest of us that still have it shake our heads.
In government why give billions to foreign countries that hate us? We could use that money here.
More local, a woman tripped over a bench in a near by town and is suing. Now the town is thinking about removing all the benches so it doesn't happen again?
Now in the news there is a convicted murderer serving life in prison for killing his wife that is going to get a sex change operation at the tax payers expense because he feels he is being discriminated against and a federal judge agreed that his 8th amendment rights are being violated. Now we will have to pay for the operation and the needed drugs for the rest of his life. Where will he then be housed? He certainly can't be kept in a mens prison. Common sense tells me that he committed a terrible crime and for that he gets better care than many people who are struggling to make ends meet on a daily basis.
What is wrong with this picture?
What has happened to common sense?
Is anyone else outraged over this?
