I saw about the bastard who shot the elderly man because of his ex.
I can't stand people like that - hurt people who never did anything to them.
And it's such a pussy thing to do - kill yourself after all that.

I remember comment on a similar issue and said I've been treated like shit by a lot of people, buy wouldn't hurt anyone.
I got told "Congrats, you're not crazy."

Also, I don't know if it counts really, but I just watched two videos about a family "pranking" their kids and how they were abusing them.
I'll link the videos because I can't explain it too good xD;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7rum5b0Vqg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfOkL7ogNAc

I think it's disgusting to abuse anyone, especially kids.
And I absolutely HATE that "I buy you things, so I don't abuse you!"
I've been treated like shit and told "I bought you ___!" like that makes it okay to treat me like shit.
Sorry but buying something doesn't make the abuse disappear.

I listened to some of the video and listened to another person talk about that family. I don't know why they allow that video or how they have so many viewers for that kind of treatment. I don't understand how some people are getting away with stuff nowadays. Doesn't make any sense why youtube would be ok with something like that to make money.

Nothing makes abuse disappear. Just wished people would realize that but that's asking too much out of how stupid people seem to be today. >.>

I've been treated poorly and then told "You're so ungrateful! I do everything for you!" when I stand up for myself.
Yeah, treating me like shit and buying me a burger means I'm wrong for standing up for myself.

Airlines be freaking out a lot lately.
I'm catching up on some news.

A family was kicked off a Jet Blue flight for having a birthday cake in the overhead bin. Then to add insult to injury Jet Blue lied on the customers claiming they were cursing and yelling. Jet Blue need to apologize to them family for lying on them.

They had the little boy crying and it broke my heart.
All over a fucking CAKE.



I also saw a news story on my local channel.
This man worked for a towing company and he stopped to help someone and got hit by a car.
The law states to slow down or pull over so you don't hit people who are stranded and are getting helped.
So now two kids don't have a dad anymore and a wife doesn't have a husband all because someone couldn't be bothered to slow down or pull over.
Spoiler
They said the vehicle hit him so hard, it ripped his leg completely off of him.

^ gory detail.

My dad always said "If you're in that big of a hurry, you should have left sooner."

In my area, the other day, a motorcyclist was hit by a vehicle, and died as a result of their injuries. People need to really watch for motorcycles now that the weather's warming up.

and regular cyclists, too...

I know someone who was on a bike, stopped at a stop sign, and a car with a trailer comes up beside her, DOESN'T STOP at the stop sign like it's supposed to, and turns in a way that cuts her off, and the trailer comes around and hits her; she couldn't get out of the way because of a steep ditch and it knocked her down into it. She was 64 at the time and ended up hospitalized -and the car owner tried to deny culpability... and the car insurance lawyers actually WON. So much descrimination against bikers... but they're so vulnerable! People need to watch out for the vulnerable...

I've read all the bs stories coming out about airlines and have no idea how the hell these bastards are getting away with their crap. Like the one where the family were threatened to lose their children and the parents sent to jail over a seat because yet again these asshole airlines over book on purpose and expect people to jump for them because they say so...

I haven't heard many stories on morons who can't drive. I see enough of those idiots on the streets of Ohio. I swear people here can't drive to save their own life. Never saw half this crap in Wisconsin where I grew up though.

Only thing here I saw was a cop accidentally overdosed at a stop sign. Didn't read the article. I saw the title and thought it was so damn stupid it's not even worth reading. Didn't want to hurt my brain trying to figure out how the hell that even works out to begin with.

Though one article I read was about a child who was bullied at school and no one cared and then he killed himself and because of the lawsuit against the school the police released the tape of the poor boy being beaten. And another article; forgot where this took place in the states; but a boy who was like 6 or something who reported his father and step mom abusing him badly and the broad had photos of this on her pc... Landlord found them logging into her pc to send her pics of their damn daughters who weren't touched in the same house. It seems this boy was murdered and fed to pigs his dad bought just for that reason. And this boy reported the abuse but no one listened. Said he looked fine and nothing was wrong.... That really shocked the hell out of me and pissed me off big time. And the photos of what this poor boy went through would make anyone sick from seeing them. I feel for that poor innocent child.

My dad's the biker type.
He LOVES motorcycles and really wants a brand new one and to travel around the country.
My uncle had a motorcycle, but I don't know if he still does.
My dad freaked out when I was driving because I turned into a lane and there was a bike.
However, I turned in the lane because the motorcycle was in the other one and nothing seemed wrong about it.
I learned from my uncle that he and my dad have seen so many people on bikes get injured because people don't pay attention.
But I wouldn't do that 8u
Dude was safe or I wouldn't have turned u,8
I see so many people riding without helmets.
I know why people don't, but there's been so many cases of accidents and the helmet would have saved them.
I actually had a distant family member die recently because he was in an accident and didn't have a helmet.
My dad told me there was an accident where he used to live.
A guy on a bike slammed into the back of a truck and was thrown into the back window of the truck. I think they said he would have died without a helmet.

There was a story last year of a cop escorting a family being hit and killed.
Someone didn't want to wait for the funeral cars to pass, so they tried to drive through and killed the cop.
That's also where my dad said that thing about leaving sooner.

I think people feel things won't ever happen to them.
I actually don't like leaving my home and when I do, I sometimes get anxiety attacks about dying.
My therapist told me that's not good, but I mean all the car accidents and things xD



saiyouri: I saw that about the taking the kids away.
I'd sue the shit out of them.
And the think about the pigs.

CPS and such piss me off. Because they'll take kids from happy homes and then ignore kids in bad ones.
That's not to say it happens 100% of the time.
We had an article in our local newspaper that said something about CPS being at fault for at least 100 deaths of children.
I also saw where they took a 6 year old away from her loving foster parents because she had Native American blood and there's a law stating she needs to be on a reservation.
So they ripped her away from her loving parents and siblings to go live with relatives she didn't know.
She was screaming and crying and begging to stay.
Mm-hm. Totally makes sense >BU

I remember a story about this dad whose wife disappeared.
His little boys mentioned her being in the trunk.
The police people were like "We knew if he took those kids, something bad would happen. We couldn't hold them because he has rights and we couldn't legally keep them."
So the dad took them home, murdered them then set the house on fire and killed himself.
Yup. He had his rights. He used them to kill his kids.
>BU
I feel like I already mentioned this case, but still pisses me off xD

In Ohio you see all over the sides or roads and on bumpers to watch out for motorcycles. So I guess here they at least want people to be extra careful. Though you don't see many on the streets like I did in Wisconsin. They were all over the place and during the summer you would see biker gangs just enjoying the nice weather on their hog. I haven't seen many accidents with them though.

I know all too well how crappy CPS is. Had a few run ins with them in a way in my life. My cousin... took them a few years to get her away from her abusive father even with my grandparents reporting to them about this guy non stop. And my grandparents neighbor couldn't get them out to the house he owned that there was abusive people living in with children. He called them non stop and nothing. They tend to over exaggerate where it doesn't need to be and ignore the ones that might need to be looked into. I just don't understand their logic and never will. Idiots will be idiots.

I know they got a huge load of cases and they don't even have anywhere near enough people working on those damn cases so many get ignored because of it... But it's not hard to you know... hire more people and actually do the background checks like they need to for these people to work with children to make sure they got the right ones working and protecting kids. But I don't think something that simple will ever work. IT's the government and they don't always do what they should be doing.

Yeah, they're just....a mess. I've seen people who or obviously not good parents, but get to keep their kids.
I also remember this video I saw of a mom OD'ing at a dollar store.
I think she OD'd.
Anyways, she was just on the floor, and her toddler was screaming and crying, trying to wake her mom up.
People were just standing around watching and talking about it and called for help, but no one went to the little girl.
I would have tried to pull her away and comforted her.
I couldn't believe people just let her cry and try to wake her mom up >_>



Small rant xD

I saw where Trump wants to pass something to cut down on Medicaid and foodstamps.
I know that people abuse the system, but I don't.
I use my stuff the right way.
Why should I be cut down?
I couldn't afford my medication or food all on my own.
Because that's what makes America great again - killing off the sick and poor.
My aunt keeps saying they're just talking about people who abuse the system.
I don't believe that, I need to see it.

I saw people talking about people who get foodstamps and get expensive manicures and their hair done and shit.
Sorry, but I don't even buy clothes or shoes unless mine are full of holes.
My money goes on bills and food and sometimes little gifts for my sister or stuff we need that's not in the list.
If you ever go shopping with me, I rarely get anything I want because I don't need it.
I will put a $2 candle, that I really want, back because I don't need it.
I don't need new shoes, I don't need new clothes, I don't need candles, I don't need a piece of cheesecake, I don't need a cute bracelet, I don't need these things - I want them. So I never buy them.
I'm annoying, seriously.

Me: u8 Mom, can I get this candle?
Mom: Yes 8u -buying groceries-
Me: ......-puts candle back- u8
Mom: Where is your candle!? >8u
Me: I put it back u8
Mom: >Bu


A lot of people in this country have a MEMEMEME attitude.
If it's not them, they don't care.
And there are selfless people in this country.
My mom said once that I was one of the most selfless people she's ever met.
I tend to put others before myself; and it hurts me sometimes.
I actually feel like a selfish piece of garbage when I want to keep something for myself.
I have issues being mean to others because I don't like people being mean to me.
