We are on the brink of the longest government shutdown in history. Each partisan side blames the other, but this current event simply proves what we all already knew; congress is sickeningly inept, corrupt, and useless.

Another school shooting this week, this time at a Highschool in Georgia, killing two students and two teachers. The most bewildering thing about this situation is that it was committed by a 14-year-old. As of this writing little is released about the perpetrator. Does it matter?
