Probably a city in America, crazies live out here.

    This has happened in Germany, too.
    I'm not going to try and educate other people anymore. Too many people now explode without warning at the slightest perceived criticism in public.

    Seriously, why do high population centers in the western world have so many mentally unstable people and/or tweakers?

    Lots of people.

    Small town crazy is different. Small town crazy everyone knows who the lunatic is and avoids them or they don’t know and one day several people disappear or someone is kidnapped or something. Small town crazy scares the shit out of me.

    Small town crazy is more like the sheriff knows you beat the shit out of your wife and kids but ignores it as long as nobody ends up in the hospital.

    If rural crime was reported accurately, it would be very clear where the most dangerous places per capita are.

    But the crazies tend to get better help in other countries. Free healthcare and all.

    Free my ass. Tax payer funded. If you're going to support something, at least be honest about it.

    Nothing in life is free. I guess we should just get rid of the word. Who doesn't know that "free healthcare" is paid with taxes? I obviously mean no unexpected bills or denied healthcare. Nobody has to chose between food or medication. Obviously...

    Do you also comment about the word literally and figuratively being synonyms?

    Literally, it's an important point that seems to be lost on many that believe if we just tax the top 10% (who pay 90% of total tax revenue) even more, we can fix all our problems. Every country with socialized healthcare requires every citizen to pay a significant tax to cover the cost. If people are not willing to pay for it, they shouldn't be advocating for it. But first they have to be educated on the reality of the cost. So yeah, stop saying free because many have no clue.
