Greetings good citizen, as today's headline indicates this post deals with whether or not we turn over the reins of our society to the next generation 'too soon'.
A rhetorical question for sure because we've all encountered the aged 3-year-old throwing tantrums because things weren't the way he likes them...
Don't you wish we had a, er, 'better measure' for (mental) maturity? Many of those in charge seem to have never progressed past kindergarten [and even then we are being 'kind'.]
But wishing for change produces nothing useful so how do we, er, 'disarm' the children on the playground?
Again with the 'wishes'...'theory has it' we can achieve responsible behavior by holding the perps 'accountable'.
Who are these perps? Usually high ranking military personnel with zero concern for the 'blow-back' their actions create.
Today's Some Assembly Required runs down a random list of acts of foolishness that occur regularly BECAUSE NO ONE IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE!
Isn't the 'theory' accountability enforces responsibility *still the benchmark we use in this nation? [*Was it ever?]
So where are the adults? Who is 'monitoring' the playground and who is punishing those who commit heinous acts with impunity BECAUSE THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT?
If there is an elephant in the room, this one's name is JUMBO!
It's upsetting enough that cops [who should NEVER be soldiers too] come back from overseas with their 'trigger fingers' set to 'shoot with impunity' because the uniform will protect you!
Do we REALLY need to craft 'zero tolerance laws' so cops don't shoot kids for being kids?
Accidents happen and situations spiral...we all know Murphy's law, if it CAN go wrong, it will but seriously good citizen, lately we have to ask ourselves what the F is wrong with the people charged with holding their underlings accountable...and more importantly, where is 'corrective action?'
While the perps are victims of policies born of wartime philosophy, these days the 'war' is against CIVILIANS, a war that can NEVER be successfully fought without damaging your soldiers IRREPAIRABLY!
Who NEEDS too be PROSECUTED for their crimes against humanity? Those overseeing the military!
Now where do you suppose EITHER candidate stands on reining in our attack dogs?
Now do you see the foolishness of voting for people instead of voting directly on the law? People can change their mind about the law but the law doesn't change!
[eg: the 'candidate' can campaign in support of a particular piece of legislation but 'change their mind' once they are in a position to 'profit personally' from a decision. Voting on the law itself prevents this...although weasels will try to 'amend' an offending law after it passes...which is a crime but the weasels don't care.]
If we can't/don't make those charged with overseeing processes and procedures accountable we will continue to suffer from out of control policing and a military that is a menace to friend and foe alike.
All because 'Mr/s. 'political appointee' never graduated sandbox 101!
The people making these choices need to have their feet held to the fire! For far too long the word 'chairman' has been 'held harmless' for the actions of THE PEOPLE HE/SHE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR! WTF!
Ignorance is one thing good citizen but putting up with STUPID is UNFORGIVEABLE! [and guess 'who's responsible'?...good job, right in one!
If YOU can accept reality here, why can't those in charge?
Thanks for letting me inside your head,

What did I say? it's all dark in here...who turned out the lights?
