Today's example of "THE DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA"

[milker]

For 10 points and a sawed off shotgun, someone point out the irony of this article today from www.9news.com


LITTLETON - Police say they're investigating a road rage shooting that happened Thursday morning.


They say two drivers got into an argument as they were heading south on Santa Fe Drive near Mississippi. The men stopped their vehicles near Santa Fe and Prince. That's when police say one of the men shot the other.

The suspect is described as a 25 to 35-year-old white man who is 5 feet 10 inches tall and between 180 and 200 pounds. He has a slightly muscular build and medium length brown hair. Police say he may be wearing glasses and have a mustache and goatee.

His car is described as a tan or gold Toyota Corolla with V6 on the trunk. The license plate may be a Columbine "respect life" plate.

The victim fled to his home in Littleton and was then driven to the hospital by a friend where he underwent surgery to remove 200 pellets from his upper torso, arm and head.

Maybe Michael Moore had it right.


Can't you see im easily I'm bothered by persistence,
One step from lashing out at you,
You wanted to get under my skin,
And call yourself friend,
I've got more friends like you,
What do I do?
Is there no standing by?
What it takes,
Who I am,
Where I've been,
ALONE!
You can't be something you're not,
Be yourself, by yourself,
Stay away from me,
A lesson learned in life,
Known from the dawn of time.....

RE!
SPECT!
WALK!
What did you say?!
RE!
SPECT!
WALK!
ARE YOU TALKIN' TO ME?!
ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?!

Run your mouth when I'm not around,
It's easy to achieve,
You try to make friends, not sympathize
Can you hear the violins playin' your song,
Those secrets tell me your every word,
Is there no standing by?
What it takes,
Who I am,
Where I've been,
ALONE!
You can't be something you're not,
Be yourself, by yourself,
Stay away from me,
A lesson learned in life,
Known from the dawn of time.....

RE!
SPECT!
WALK!
What do you say?!?
RE!
SPECT!
WALK!
ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?!
RE!
SPECT!
WALK! What did you say?!
RE!
SPECT!
WALK!
ARE YOU TALKIN' TO ME?!
ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?!
NO WAY PUNK!

Wow, this did not light a fire at all around here? I get nothing?

Knuckles? Sherwin? Come on now. Get fired up!

[milker]

If I can remember right knuckles may not have a drivers license, so this would only apply to those that can drive or have means of driving.

Come on now. Get fired up!

This forum design SUCKS!!!!!!!!

It's actually starting to grow on me. Who's that whacked out head there? Kee-razy!!

If you take the checkboxes out, we are no longer friends.

And we're barely hanging by a thread as it is.

That was a pretty good pun there. The news article is sadly typical of America today so nobody is shocked anymore, which says something all by itself. Besides, anyone could have a license plate frame with hokey wisdom on it and not even pay attention. I will give example.

Ever see a car with the 'Honk if you love jesus' bumper sticker? But I bet if you were behind that car at a light and started blowing the horn you'd get the finger quicker than shit. nice place this America.

ever see a honk if you love Buddha? Shiva? anything? Why does hey-suess have the monopoly on automobiles?
