Who's to Blame?

I am trying to understand the state of personal (ir-)responsibility in America in the last twenty years. ????


If a woman burns her thighs by the hot
coffee she is holding in her lap
while driving,
she blames the restaurant.


If your teen-age son kills himself,
you blame the rock 'n' roll musician
he liked.

If you smoke three packs a day for 40
years and die of lung cancer,
your family blames thye tobacco company.


If your daughter gets pregnant by the
football captain,
you blame the school for poor sex education.

If your neighbor crashes into a tree while
driving home drunk,
you blame the bartender.


If your cousin gets AIDS because the
needle he used to shoot heroin was dirty,
you blame the government for not
providing clean ones.

If your grandchildren
are brats without manners,
you blame television.


If your friend is shot by a deranged
madman,
you blame the gun manufacturer.

If a crazed person breaks into the cockpit
and tries to kill the pilots at 35,000 feet,
but the passengers kill him instead,
the mother of the deceased blames
the airline.

God
Bless
America...

land of the blameless
and
home of the guilt-free!!
