Stupidity breeds stupidity

So to start off with, this blog isn't going to be as long as I would normally like something about this to be. Why you might ask? Because if I go too out of control my head will explode after attempting to clean the earth of the plague know as "the dumb".

So lets start with point one. The Law.
WAY TOO BROAD! So i'm going to give some good examples of things just to get the ball rolling, and then your brain can fill in the rest.

So here's a good example of stupidity. Saw a post recently about someone talking about jay walking and how they do it all the time. This actually I think is fine if you're a smart individual (the person who jay walks I do believe is smart).

Laws are basically created for 3 reasons.
1) To protect nice people from bad people.
2) To protect stupid people.
3) To make money.

Protecting nice people from bad people is a given. Making money is kinda show by stuff like... in canada the fastest speed you can travel is 110km/h, but there isn't even a car made today that can't go faster than that... because like... if you can't give people tickets for speeding, the cops bring in a LOT LESS money.

Protecting stupid people. When that person made the post about jay walking, someone actually commented "this law didn't exist with horse and buggies, why does it need to now?" REALLY? whens the last time you saw a steady group of horses travelling at 100km/h? Like, this is ridiculous. Laws like no jaywalking are made to protect people too stupid to see the actual dangers that exist in society. Smart people know to look both ways, make sure it's safe, and cross. If a cop sees something like this and you're being safe about it, great! But for everyone that's careful about it, there's someone else that tries to run across Deerfoot during rushhour, or bolting across the street and cars are slamming on their brakes. People die from jaywalking all the time remember... because they're too stupid to look both ways, hence the need for the law. Laws like no texting and driving is a good example too. People need to learn to use their brains more.

It's like warning labels. There was a food processor a while back that actually had a warning on it to not insert your penis into it. why did this warning label exist? Because someone actually did it and the company that made them added it to prevent a lawsuit. Oh and dont even GET ME STARTED about law suits! Suing a company for making your coffee actually hot? Suing a home owner because you broke your leg when you slipped on some ice when running away from them because you were caught robbing their house? The Legal system enables criminals to be criminals, and protects stupid people so much that it shows them they dont need to actually think and use their brains, because if something is made so that a 3yr old can't understand it, just sue. *thumbs up* pricks...



Point number two: Fox News.

What in the hell is this crap? (as you can see i'm getting agitated already, hehehe). This is a station that has just about as much merit as the National Enquirer. A News organization is supposed to be something that directs people to what the actual news is. When you give a half assed story, and then have some moronic Idiot like Nancy Grace or that other douche-canoe Bill Reiley ranting for 20 minutes about their own moronic half assed opinion that all it does it feed the fire of baseline human stupidity for the inbred clowns from the southern states who actually eat this crap like sugar coated cheerios laced with speed, all you're doing is forcing idiot behaviour and thoughts into the general populous. These are people that have pushed their own opinions onto the public mind so hard and so harshly that people have killed themselves, and they're too ignorant and self absorbed to realize it. The Darwin awards exist for a reason and I hope very much that these two manage to win themselves this award. Unfortunately since the law tends to protect stupid people...



Point number three: The internet

This one is pretty self explanatory. If you want to see a group of people that are just completely stupid, just read the comments section of any news site. It's full of people so obsessed with blowing out their own opinions that they simply dont want to even attempt to understand what the actual point is. If this isn't the fact with some of these people their ridiculous opinions are actually real, making me shocked to the point of wondering how these people have survived into adulthood remember simple concepts like eating during the day. It's a good thing that breathing is an bodliy, involuntary act otherwise these people would have suffocated a LONG time ago.

I wish I had some examples of this, but seriously it's not needed. Go to www.ctv.ca and check out the comments section of any news article that's been around long enough for a good spread of comments if you want to see what i'm talking about.


I'm going to leave it here. Feel free to input in any way you'd like. I'd really like to have some people give their opinions on some of these things.

Give me your thoughts!
