We have Trump; the Brits have Brexit. As with us and Trump, the pro-Brexit side is advocating a course of action that will plunge them into a deep pool of unknowns, but they still find that preferable to existing, intolerable situation. As is the case with the U.S. government, the EU has become a lot of things that its advocates promised it would not be. And as with the GOP here, the House of Commons (where the pro-Remain side has about a 75% majority, from what I've seen) is talking darkly about overriding the expressed will of the voters "for their own good".
(The linked article is a bit too glib about letting Greece and Italy off the hook for their financial indiscretions, but it's still a good summary.)

Moving along, it seems that the National Park Service can't fire employees, either:

Apparently, sometimes Jesus reaches out to us and fills our hearts and minds with love and acceptance and charity towards all.
And sometimes we just become preachers instead.
Anyone taking bets on how long before this one gets caught with a gay hooker? It's a California story. Surely someone has an opinion!

"Why do you need guns that fire so many bullets?"
Well these women and children found out why its not good to let others have guns to "keep you safe".
Google UN peacekeeping rape and see for yourself. These are the "good" guys protecting the weak from the "bad" guys.
