Cut and dry. Black and white. Night and day.

Would anybody be crying for me if i chose not to pay my car insurance and my truck and car get totaled by a runaway steamroller? Absolutely not.

It is time for everybody to take a gut-check on personal responsibility in this country. This sue happy, it's not my fault it's theirs attitude has to stop. There are consequences to choices you make. Some good and some are bad. that is why you have the ability to choose. We can use reasoning to decide what would be the best choice. The homeowner chose not to pay for fire protection, so it's completely on him.

Well said sir!!
