|  What is it with people?
I've started this thread three times and deleted what I wrote each time. This time, I think I've got what I want to say down. Dude jumps up on the stage and kills Dimebag Darrell. Why??? I mean . . . WTF? So, let me see if I've got this straight: You're a loser, he's not, so you shoot him. Is that it? Newsflash: Relative to an established rock star . . . we're ALL kinda losers. It's just like the guy that shot Lennon. Heck, it's just like the idiot next to me at the traffic light . . . NO ONE ON THIS PLANET SEEMS TO GENUINELY CARE ABOUT THEIR FELLOW MAN ANYMORE AND IT MAKES ME SICK TO MY STOMACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where are the good neighbors? Where are the honest folks returning your wallet with everything in it when they find it? Where are the honest cops that obey the laws (including traffic)? Where are the polite, chivalrous young men that hold doors for old folks? These people existed a mere 25 years ago, when I was a kid. I remember them. Hell, my dad was one of the main ones. If I had a nickel for every night he had lost sleep due to the fact that he was across the street helping the neighbor fix his car/house/window/plumbing, etc. Folks, am I dissillusioned, and if so, about what? Have they disappeared, or did they never exist at all? |
