Ranger Rick: Proof we’re living in a country run by idiots

I have posted this before, but likeRanger Rick Art_7_0_0 most good hard-hitting opinion pieces (since Paul Harvey no longer graces our airwaves), using information to state the obvious produces the most profound effect.

You know you live in a country run by idiots…

… When smoking pot is legal and widely accepted, but smoking tobacco is treated like a criminal offense.

… You can get arrested for expired tags on your car but not for being in the country illegally.

… Your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more of our money.

… A seven-year-old-boy can be thrown out of school for calling his teacher “cute” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable.

… The Supreme Court of the United States can rule that lower courts cannot display the 10 Commandments in their courtroom while sitting in front of a display of the 10 Commandments.

… Children are forcibly removed from parents who appropriately discipline them while children of “underprivileged” drug addicts are left to rot in filth infested cesspools.

… Working class Americans pay for their own health care (and the healthcare of everyone else), while unmarried women are free to have child after child on the “state’s” dime while never being held responsible for their own choices.

… Hard work and success are rewarded with higher taxes and government intrusion, while slothful, lazy behavior is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid, subsidized housing and free cell phones.

… The government’s plan for getting people back to work is to provide 99 weeks of unemployment checks (to not work).

… Being self-sufficient is considered a threat to the government.

… Politicians think that stripping away the amendments to the Constitution is really protecting the rights of people.

… The rights of the government come before the rights of the individual.

… Parents believe the state is responsible for providing for their children.

… Being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you “safe.”

… You have to have your parents signature to go on a school field trip but not to get an abortion.

… An 80-year-old woman can be strip searched by the TSA, but a Muslim woman in a burka is only subject to having her neck and head searched.

… Using the “N” word is considered “hate speech” but writing and singing songs about raping women and killing cops is considered “art.”

… You can write a post like this just by reading the news headlines.

Good Day!

  • I selected only one from your rather absurd list: The SCOTUS’ courtroom does not feature a display of the 10 Commandments.
