This is a small part of what should not be going on in any world. Common sense is not used much with some people. Thank you for this post.

You know if course that traditionally it has been American lawyers who relied on Anglo-Saxon law. For example, Clarence Darrow relied on English precedent to plead insanity in the Leopold and Loeb case Insanity had never been argued successfully till then in the USA.<br /> <br /> Inna LOL… You know if course that traditionally it has been American lawyers who relied on Anglo-Saxon law.

We are going overboard with this safety bit. Let children be children and get their bruises and let people use their brains instead of relying on the court for every little thing. We are digging ourselve straight in the ground for allowing all the foolishness. I agree this is absolute nonsense. We are going overboard with this safety bit.

I agree that one reason behind the nonsense is the growth in litigation culture – everyone is terrified of being sued – but there are also a couple of other agendas here.

1 – Money – Health and safety and political correctness have spawned a huge lucrative industry – I work in the construction industry and it costs thousands of pounds for our small company to conform to guidelines laid down, and tested by know nothing imbeciles.

2 – Social Control – A big agenda at the moment – we have a relentless drip drip drip of ridiculous rules and regulations, many of which defy common sense – how long before people stop acting in docile obedience and start using common sense again….before our society becomes worse than George Orwell predicted.
We will all be criminalised soon when we fail to for example wear goggles when dealing with the life threatening substance – blu-tac!!!!

The EU is poised to ratify it’s superstate – I feel that what we are seeing is just the tip of the iceberg at the moment.

Whilst treating people like stupid children on one hand – imo, they are trying to bump us off / decrease our life expectancy on the other:-
-Allowing the use of mobile phones (big money industry)- unsafe and dangerous – you can cook an egg with two mobile phones(see google if you don’t believe me)- imaging=e the effect on our brains!!
- Manufacturing and releasing swine flu – see this link http://www.naturalnews.com/026503_pandemic_swine_flu_bioterrorism.html
- Surpressing cures and alternative energy sources.
- Codex Alimentarias – a board set up to reduce the nutritional content of food, make vitamins and herbs illegal, genetically modify everything that is natural and good.
- Big Pharma, the biggest money making / human destroying industry of the lot….everyone has a mental illness – normal shyness is now social avoidance disorder – to be treated with drugs – when you can’t get off them without side effects, they will prescribe ytou some more to help. They want everyone taking something to make them richer.

Sorry for the rant – but it is only the sign of a good and thought provoking article x

We are the world leaders in greedy selfish acts of deceit and mayhem. Nice true article. We are the starters of a lot of bad things, and will continue to do so because of greed.
