...this country truly has gone to hell in a hand-basket. Every single day it's something. Today it was a hospital in effing Iowa flying sick Mexicans back to Mexico, unbeknownst to anyone. And yesterday it was Nevada Mental Health shipping patients all over the country to different cities. Now this in the Maryland prison. Last week it was the fertilizer explosion in West, TX and the losers blowing up the Boston Marathon.
Before that it was the pipeline burst down in Arkansas. Our society is imploding upon itself.
