1. Stop all these bull**** lawsuits. (ie: spilling coffee, tripping over a rock,ect.) I mean no society before our time had this much nonsense. In my granddads day, someone tripped it was, "Nice play Shakespeare." and "Watch were you walk". Not, "I'm gonna sue you !" Coffee is usually HOT, so what bozo spills it and freaks out? I mean, come on people, if it is made with boiling water, isn't it supposed to be hot!?
2. Don't let your little kids dress like a hooker. What 5 or 10 year old needs to wear tight pants with the words "Juicy" on the rear? Bikinis for toddlers!? What the hell!? I've seen 8 year olds wearing shirts that say: "Wanna Lick My Lollipop?", "Foxy", "Milkshake", etc. We wonder why we have such a pedophile problem? I'm not advocating we got back to dresses, all I'm saying is let kids be kids, they can wear this stuff when their teens.
3. Don't ban breed because one dog bites. Just educate people on how to train and care for their dogs. Labs, Springer Spaniels, Dachshunds all can and do bite and attack people. I have owned Pitt mixes all my life, none have ever been aggressive and none have ever bitten me. The only dog that ever bit me was a little white fuzzball that no one had trained or done anything but pamper it.
4. Stop putting your kid in a padded bubble. Let them get bruises and scrapes. Don't worry every cut will get MRSA. I've drank out of a water hose at a stable, ridden horses without helmets, my cousin ate catfood when she was young, I drank water out of the dog's dish when I was 5, I climbed trees, stayed out til dusk and am still alive and healthy. Nowadays kids just sit around playing xbox or watching TV. The only activity alot of them get is from organized sports. They are taking recess out of the schools.
5. Don't let people get money from welfare if they have never worked a day in their lives, I'm all for helping those with physical or mental problems that prevent them from getting work. I'm talking about those people that sit on their ass all day watching TV and pumping out babies.
Any more suggestions?
