WAKE UP AND SMELL THE CRISIS

What another depressing day and not in my world but those in Omaha with another citizen, obviously another mentally ill person has now taken lifes in a meaningless act of violence that may have been avoided if Americans had a proper outreach program, and good medical care accessible to them.

At this time, no one knows why this person went on a killing spree but I'll bet he left some clues to his actions and it will probably have something to do with lack of medical help.

Now there will be more people in need of medical help, those suffering from post-tramatic stress syndrome and those families of the victims who will never enjoy another holiday season.

When will the American government wake up and smell the crisis going on all around them and implement a national health care system that will help everyone, despite their social economic standing.

Until the government stops with their broken promises and political scandals more and more citizens will take to these extreme measures to prove their points.

How many more people will suffer, how many more will die, how many more will it take to wake them up and look around at what their policies are doing?

Maybe Lou Dobbs will get these answers tommorow night, I saw his anger and disgrace tonight regarding this and other issues his government ignores so carelessly.

I have to ask myself, is the United States really a free country?

I guess it's only free to those who can afford it.
