There are people in this world who do things which are extremely dangerous. Things that aren’t necessary, that put others at risk, that waste valuable manpower and time then when they have to be rescued the rest of us have to pay for their actions with our hard earned tax dollars. And afterwards they just simply walk away, sometimes without even saying a simple “thank you.”
I don’t know about you but that really ticks me off.
Why do I, who is sitting at home, doing what I’m supposed to be doing, have to have my tax dollars wasted on some fool-hardy adventure that “Mr. Nature” took that got him lost out in nowhere or trapped on some mountaintop.
I know, he had to climb it because it was there.
It’s just not right. It ain’t kosher.
Then when these adventurists have exhausted all the tax funds with these excursions into absurdity, the city, county or whoever it may be, threatens to either raise my taxes or curtail valuable services like trash collection or police/fire protection.
If you cut back on police or fire protection, who’s going to go out and get these folks when they’re dangling from a cliff? Not me.
No, if you get yourself in a predicament out in the wild, you should be the one who has to pay the city, county, sheriff’s department or whoever has to come get you.
If I drive my car off the road into a ditch trying to avoid a deer, I have to pay someone to get it out and I wasn’t doing anything risky, unnecessary or adventurous ( I love that word).
These thrill-seeking souls should have their Visa or Mastercard ready to pay the bill. And if they can’t pay leave them out there or take them to jail and let them sit there until they can pay. Treat them like they treat deadbeat dads and moms.
Lock ‘em up.
I bet they’ll think twice before they go on another nature walk.
I like having fun as much as the next guy but there should be limits.
If you want a thrill, go to an amusement park like the rest of us.
It’s a lot cheaper and if you get stranded on something there, when they come and get you they give you free stuff!
for more humorous schlep go somewhere else because I don’t have anymore
