Where the guy was going, the stranger pulled out a knife and stabbed the driver in the heart killing him. Same week, at our small Taco Bell a couple in the drive through pulled the worker out the drive through window and beat him up. Badly. I think it’s. Obvious. Lack of mental heath services, cuts to food, and housing, and any kind of help for those who really need it have been chopped by trump and his. Cohorts in Congress. As desperation among the needy grows, so will desperate acts. What a country. Just my opinion, as I watch my country devolve.
