Speed kills, so why do we keep designing for it?

Because we want to get places as fast as possible and as safely as possible? I mean, where did all this “safety first” stuff come from? We’ve always been progress motivated. Bigger, better, faster. Then we figure out how to make it safe enough.
Oh and also, purposely designing roads that are more dangerous at speed because going faster is more dangerous just makes ZERO sense. Think about that for a second. Let idiocy of it sink in.
But what about making people better drivers? Yeah…that’s way too fucking hard. Give them cars that drive themselves…it’s easier.

Trump’s pick for U.N. migration post said accepting Syrian refugees was ‘foolish and delusional’

Do you remember right after 9/11 when everyone said that we would never back down to terrorists? Our leaders proclaimed that we would NOT live our lives in fear or let these acts of terror change our way of life…remember that? Well, this is the absolute opposite of that.

Choosing not to help refugees is SO fucking un-American. We should be ashamed as a country for letting our fears cause us to treat people in need like terrorists because of where they are from…because they are trying to ESCAPE the terror. #WTFAmerica ?!?
And you politicians using that same fear to further your political agenda of surveillance and suppression and your party line policies…you know who you are…
Fuck you, and then go fuck yourselves.
