things are funny

i mean, really, how can anyone not see the humor in this situation? for you lazyasses, a baseball coach offered one of his players $25 to hit an autistic kid on the team with a ball while they were warming up so the kid wouldn't play during the game, and was sentenced 1-6 years in prison for it.

what's so funny about that, you say? well first, it just shows how ridiculous people are. these were 8 and 9 year olds, and it was little league. second, where else could this happen except pennsylvania? and finally, the coach's last name...downs.

a wise woman once told me, "i'm down with downs!"

Someone with such a lack of perspective, common sense, compassion, and no idea of reality, risk, or consequences should have been sentenced to death or equivelently sent to Iraq.
