We really do get the government we deserve, and when an official appointed by our levels of government pass sentences or laws we, as a public don't like, we as a collective body weep and whine over how "government doesn't listen". Bear with me.
Graham James was convicted and sentenced to two years in prison yesterday for sexually abusing young hockey players. See link:

Now the majority of Winnipeggers in polls think the two years is not enough. I got news for you Winnipegers and Canadians: You elected the government that appointed the judges. In fact, the majority of you, IIRC, didn't bother to wander over to your polling station and vote. Now you whine and weep that the sentence wasn't enough, yet you won't bother to call or e-mail your MP, MLA or any elected representative.
Get off your fat tail ends and do something instead of whining "the government won't listen".
Rant ends. :rage:
