the collapse of bridge in America is a disgrace to the world. This kind of castastrophy as a result of negligence is definitely “below the line” in the area of accountability!
I’ve held off on posting my thoughts on this. Why? Because I didn’t want to write out of anger. I wanted to give myself a little time to calm down. Since it’s taking longer to calm down than I expected, I figure I might as well take advantage of my freedom of speech rights and express what’s on my heart… here goes—
SENSELESS! ABSOLUTELY SENSELESS!
Without a doubt, things happen in life. They just do— good things and bad things. But when bad things happen because of human negligence that results in deaths, families being torn apart, and communities being devastated, there are no excuses, or justifications.
And it’s definitely not a time to play the “blame game.” Who is to blame? I don’t know. What I do know is this tragedy is the result of misplaced priorities and neglect for the value of human life and safety.
Sure things happens, but really now… ignoring two structural deficiency reports could have avoided this tragedy.
We give our enemies reasons to laugh at us.
Well, I’ve said it. Truth is, I still don’t feel any better. Perhaps, because I know the families that are directly affected by this tragedy aren’t feeling any better.
