My rants and raves in the life of everyday news.

Grrrrr.....

So I come home from another "slow" day of lugging the sick around and quickly glanced at the news. We apparently lost 15 soldiers and 5 civilians in a rocket attack. They say that the rocket attack occurred during the lunch time hour where most of the soldiers and civilians were congregated. I'm not going to go into detail on this because it really pi**es me off to no end. CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME WHEN WE'RE JUST TURN THIS PLACE INTO A PARKING LOT OR IRRADIATE IT TO THE POINT WHERE IT WILL BE QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE NEXT 10, 000 YEARS?!?!?!?

I'm sorry, I feel this war was just a completion (or continuation) by Jr. of what Bush Sr. was trying to do. But, you know what, it needed to be done. We don't need rat bastards like Hussein running any countries. He deserves to be put away forever or be killed for what he's done. I feel better with him not having his finger on his version of "The Big Red Button." However, I feel like that this is another Vietnam and we're being crapped on every time a chance arises. Oh, what to do? Stay Tuned, more "fun" to come.

On a more lighter note, a mother in Dallas is suing Wal-Mart for approximately 25,000,000 dollars because they sold her "sick" daughter a shotgun. Well, the girl promptly blew her head off in 2003 (for the politically correct, committed suicide). Sick from what, you ask? The girl was a manic depressive and schizophrenic. She was supposedly on anti-psychotic medication, and also attacked a fellow customer at the store where her prescriptions were filled. The mother claims that Wal-Mart should have known this or checked her prescription records before selling the gun. AH, Hello?!?!? HIPPA!!!! HIPPA!!!! HIPPA!!!!

Wal-Mart did their job (ran a background check) and found nothing to support not selling her the gun. Is it me or does it seems to me that mommy dearest wasn't doing her paternal duties as a mother? Granted the girl was 24, but she obviously had some issues. You know what... you can lead a horse to water, but you can't force it to drink. I don't see anywhere in the news that mommy was shoving pills down her daughter's throat to keep her "sane." One can only assume that she wasn't taking her medications or the medications she was taking were incorrect/or dosed wrong. Either way, mommy or daughter did nothing to correct and we know the end result. Don't blame Wal-Mart, it's not their fault!!!!! They didn't pull the trigger.
