[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 2711112, member: 24583"] I am reading this and flowing a little off topic here, but to me this is the most important thing that has helped wreck our society. Lying used to be a really bad thing. Someone who was caught in a lie was in trouble for what they did and double in trouble for lying about it. Now we expect a lie to cover up and give time to find a way to finagle out of what they did. When was the last time you heard a "caught red handed person" plead "I plead guilty" and take their lumps? No, million dollar trials. Filtered down from Billy, down to raising kids that still lie and get away with only getting reprimanded IF you prove 9 ways to hell that they actually did it. It should be mandatory double sentence if you lie. Sorry to blow off here, but I am 67 years old, but growing up, my Dad's belt made me a better person. I got in trouble for a lot of things once, but not for doing the same thing twice. I got in trouble for doing something bad once that I lied about, I learned to never consider that combination again about anything. It did not take me long to get smarter. [/QUOTE]
