Common Sense passed away
musicman:
One thing about our prison system that drives me insane: It doesn't really rehabilitate that many people. Sometimes the least violent criminals receive the worst sentences because of what goes on in our prisons. We all know that police officers never fare well in prison because the worst ciminals are out to get them. A non violent criminal that just happened to make a big mistake, will have to be tough in order to survive. Why is it that some prisoners aren't just sentenced to time, but are subjected to attacks and even raped? What kind of sick justification is that? And I hear all about the child molesters and such getting their just rewards at the hands of those who have absolutelly no remorse for what they do. I'm tired of all of the stories about how some face losing their very humanity, even if they are sorry for what they have done. I can say, that there are some things that are worse than death itself. A seven year prison sentence should not carry with it, violent attacks by the lowest scum of the Earth.

Hey, Tinknocker
I too have received an e-mail about old common sense and received some of his notes and here they are:
1. a day without sunshine is like night
2. on the other hand, you have different fingers
3. 42.7 % of all statistics are made up on the spot
4. 99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name
5. remember, half the people you know are below average
6. he who laughs last, thinks slowest
7. depression is merely anger without enthusiasm
8. the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese
9. support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have
10. a clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory
11. change is inevitable, except from vending machines
12. if you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments
13. how many of you believe in psycho-kinesis? raise my hand
14. OK, so what's the speed of dark?
15. when everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane
16. hard work pays off in the future - laziness pays off now
17. how much deeper would the ocean be without sponges?
18. eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines
19. what happens if you get scared half to death twice?
20. why do psychics have to axk you for your name?
21. inside every older person is a younger person wondering, "what the heck happened?"
22. just remember - if the world didn't suck, we would all fall off
23. light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
24. Life isn't like a box of chocolates. It's more like a jar of jalapenos. What you do today might burn your rear tomorrow.

If you get it passed then the ACLU and the like will sue and ask for a statue for the opposite sadly.
Also what i think is missing from the original post that passed with common sense is Facts. It got buried with Common Sense unknowingly
