Tougher Laws

When Prime Minister Mr. Harper was running to get re-elected in the last election he stated that he would bring in tougher laws for criminals. That is fine, but with tougher laws it means more people in jail and more jails would be needed. As it is now to my understanding, the jails are now overflowing and to build jails is costly. But I have a good solution on where to get the money to build them and there would not be any reason to raise taxes to cover the cost.

The first thing I would do is do away with the CBC. Privatize it and then billions would be saved just by doing that. I find CBC useless, boring and a drain on taxpayers' money.

Second, any adult that immigrates to this country and break the law (and it's considered a federal crime) and are found guilty without a doubt, should be deported right away with no chance of coming back. And there should be no appeal - this would also apply to any teens that came here with their parents. But when it comes to a provincial crime, then every one is equal. No jail time would apply for breaking a provincial law but give them double probation and make them pay the court costs if they are found guilty.

I know some will say 'yes but new laws would have to be written'. I say fine and at the same time, the old laws that were not brought up to date could be revise and bring them up to this century..

That’s my rant of the day - tougher laws and ways to save tax payers money.

Republicans

These Republicans are lucky that I never took an interest in the politics of the USA because by what I’ve read lately about what they are doing I would have plenty to say.

These people seem to be more interested in building up their party then looking at helping out the country. Lately I’ve been paying more attention, and to me they are acting the same as these liberals were acting here in Canada. Here in Canada the libs would veto anything that the party that was elected to run the country would propose.  They were more or less acting like cats and dogs.

They were more interested in trying to show that their party had better Ideas.The results for their efforts ended up in disaster and  now they are in the trash can and that’s where they belong. I hope they never recover, and if they do I hope the new liberals would have people with more intellect then what they had in the past. From what I could make out they were a bunch of educated  fools. They had brains but didn’t know how to use them properly.

It seems like the Republicans are doing the same in the USA.  In other words, stopping the wheels from turning. A couple of weeks ago I wrote to a blogger that blogs about what goes on in the USA and about what I thought as to what was going on in the USA and he put it on his blog.

A President cannot do a proper job if he is stopped at everything that he proposes -  like his proposal for creating jobs which are badly needed in the United States. His bill expressed how it would be paid for. Yet the Republicans turned it down because they didn’t want the rich to pay more taxes. I guess they are looking for votes for the next election and I guess the country can wait.I am not from the USA but people have to live and work in order to live and it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from.

Whiners without a cause - Part 2

Yesterday I complained about people who complain about smoking.  Guess what - I'm not done.  There are some people that don’t like the smell of alcohol but I don’t hear anyone complaining or try to get some kind of law to make sure that people who indulge in that stuff do not breath in the direction of a person  who doesn't use alcohol.  There's no movement to ban second hand alcohol fumes.  Or did I miss that protest march?

Whiners without a cause - Part 1

I called this post whiners without a cause because of what I had read in the Ottawa Sun newspaper earlier this week. According to what I read, the health department has conducted a poll in Ottawa and it appears most people would embrace an expanded smoking ban that includes restaurant patios, parks and beaches.

Pastors in the USA.

I was reading on CNN this morning about this pastor Jeffress telling the people not to vote for the White House hopeful Mitt Romney because he is a Mormon.I've lost the link but you can read some of the details in this story.  This reminded me of the other pastor that wanted to burn the Qu'ran.


Does this pastor think that being a President includes changing the people's mind on whatever faith that they believe in? I wonder if in his Bible it states ( Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. Or does it say do unto others then run before they do unto you?)

Apologies

To some people this word Apology seems to be a word that shows weakness in a person. I would say that a person that thinks does so because that person has not interacted with different kinds of people in this world. To find out when to use this word and by using it at the proper situation can result in a way that would be surprising.

Crashing of a Helicopter

Wait for the tie-in.

I was reading on CNN the other night about a helicopter crashing in the river in East Manhattan.In the crash a woman in her early 40's year had died.  This was the 28th helicopter crash in East Manhattan in three decades.  That's about one crash per year.

Now what prompted me to rant about this, is what I read on some of the comments on the CNN page. Some idiot had written and I quote, “why couldn’t your God stop the crash?" Another said  "There is no God and when your dead your dead.”
