A gunman fired upon thousands of people attending a music festival on the Las Vegas Strip Sunday night, in a brutal attack that is blamed for at least 58 deaths, police say. In the mass shooting and panic that ensued, 515 people were injured. At least one of the dead is an off-duty police officer who was attending the concert.
Editorializing: Interesting how media always emphasize ISLAMIC terrorists, but downplay domestic terrorism as psychologically disturbed individual lone-wolfs.

You remember when . . . .
I was just drafted into filling a gallon can with gasoline for one my less-bright children. Coming home, I was trapped behind a schoolbus. Strange - when we rode school buses, the driver came to a stop, opened the door, and between 1 and 20 kids would fly out the door, and run in as many different directions. Things have changed. Now, the driver stops, puts that barrier thing across the road, and WAITS until Mama or Papa walks across the road, to the door. When the driver recognizes the parent, or guardian, THEN he opens the door.
This most certainly is NOT the society that I grew up in.

Can't let kids run into the street! Can't let them walk a block or they'll get kidnapped! Can't can't can't... can't... ugh, I don't wanna live with these terrified sheeple.
