    Good thing the AH wasn't carrying a gun, the victim would have been dead over an egg.

    You know, I realize that, as a citizen of the US, the likelihood of us ever having a national healthcare service is next to zero. However, I really wish we could at least have a nationalized mental healthcare program. Mental healthcare for all who need it. Because a lot of people need it.

    Wish we would also address the things that are causing mass mental issues as well. Although it's important to fix poor mental health, it's also important to prevent poor mental health to begin with. One could even argue that it's more important. Better to never have been broken at all then to have been broken and fixed.

    There has been a significant increase in rage in the world in general. Let everyone feel peace and joy. What you put out is what is returned, I want joy and peace, I want you to have the same. Let it be...John Lennon.
