We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

I guess they didn't know they could skip all the hard stuff and become a cop in one week.
 


If you make yourself miserable trying to make others happy that means everyone is miserable.
