Fire Hydrant Protection

You didn't even know it, but Uncle Sam is protecting you from dangerous fire hydrants. At a time when cities are struggling to balance their budgets the EPA has made pretty much all fire hydrants illegal. Never mind the 2,000-3,000 people who die in fires every year- the EPA will protect you from lead in a water source you will never drink from. Instead of the obvious solution of simply never using hydrants for drinking water, a rare practice, they ban hydrants. Of course, their real concern ought to be: who will be stupid enough to keep voting for idiots if lead is eliminated?
If, if a white man puts his arm around me voluntarily, that's brotherhood. But if you - if you hold a gun on him and make him embrace me and pretend to be friendly or brotherly toward me, then that's not brotherhood, that's hypocrisy.- Malcolm X
