Safety Zombies

Craving safety above all else is a horrible depravity. Especially when you victimize others to feed your craving; when you force your ideas and standards of safety on others. I get really disgusted at people who spend their energy trying to keep everyone else "safe". Safety is an illusion. There are risks, both acceptable and unacceptable. To be human means you evaluate your own risks and decide which ones are acceptable for you. Government nannies have no place in an adult's life. Grow up. Make your own informed choices and deal with the consequences. Help your children recognize and evaluate the risks instead of looking for someone in government to "protect" them. Nothing worth doing will ever be accomplished if "safety" is your only concern. Forget the cry of "if it saves even one life". Where is the concern for the lives cheapened, the dreams crushed, by the brain-eating, soul-withering zombies who run around trying to force their "safety" on us all?
