Just because the world will inevitably end doesn't mean we should be neglecting it. I'm personally of the opinion that a large part of global warming is caused by volcanic activity and that human activity is the second-leading cause, but that doesn't mean I don't care.

I realize the last one is written with a bias, but that use of force when a man merely resists arrest is totally uncalled for.

There's always people who think that letting their first violent impulse take the fore is a good idea.
