a facebook friend had this posted today, the comments she got was overwhelming and I thought so much of this comparison that I wanted to share with you guys.
Folks,
these Rattlesnakes are in need of a home. They're refugees from the
Brush country pushed out by snake hunting, and feral hogs. Now, we think
most of these are good snakes and won't bite you, but we are sure some
of these will bite you without provocation. We can't tell you which
snakes in the bunch are the ones that will kill you because they all
came in together and we can't tell which is which! Some of the biting
ones were actually trained to seek out anyone and bite and to hide among
the good ones. Our federal government has promised to figure it out, so
don't worry.
So who wants to give all these snakes a good home?
That's a great allegory for what's going on right now. If so many people who work for a living and live in the real world can see it, why can't the God like creatures living in D.C. discern the facts as well. I guess they just don't want to. And, they don't care.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately until it affects a person directly they don't care. Our society has become so darn complacent that they have the attitude "well its not my problem". I see it all the time with friends posts on FB, its more important to worry about why they can't get the newest phone update as opposed to an organization wanting to kill them...
DeleteHit the nail on t he head with this one!!
