Because I'm offended by what Imus said and think that he got his just desserts, that means that I've had sunshine and rainbows and puppies and daffodils my entire life? Snake, you are not naive enough to believe that. Nobody in this world gets a free pass, and everyone has had their fair share of heavy loads that they must carry. That's life.

Does this mean that I think that anyone is right to hop on this bandwagon? No. I think that anyone who uses this incident to forward their own agenda is loathsome. But what it does mean to me is that Imus did a wrong thing, and he should pay a price.

That's what I try to teach my children. Nobody can truly stop you from doing things in life, but there are consequences. If more people today understood that simple lesson, I believe that the world would be a better place.
