The greatest cause of real misery has to be the actions of criminals.The victims of these misfits are left permanently damaged and the senseless wrong committed can never be put right.
Penalties for disgraceful crimes have become laughable thanks largely to the nonsense spewed out by people who seem hell bent on making excuses for criminals.As the famous English author Charles Dickens once observed through one of his characters,'The law is an ass'.
Tolerance of criminal behaviour is madness,even if the wrongdoer is in fact a decent person who has just got into bad company.That's no excuse and a decent person could accept that appropriate correction was deserved and learn from it.
It is the bad company who would like to get off lightly and resume their antisocial behaviour as soon as possible.Do gooders(who may mean well)have paved the way for the intolerable situation which has come about.
The streets are simply not safe at night and the police are more concerned with writing traffic tickets than anything else.It is the criminals who should be afraid to go out at night.
Then there is frustration and annoyance.It is over dramatising to describe these as misery,but they are also mainly caused by unsavoury specimens.The most cunning of these beings try to look good and fool people.They can even be pillars of their local church (i.e. hypocrites).
Although decent people can sometimes have differences of opinion,the arguments caused by liars are something else again.Liars are completely unreasoning and would literally argue that black is white.They seem to live for stupid arguments and aggravation.There is something in the book of Revelation about what will happen to liars.
Until it is realised that there are two completely different types of human,people will not be on their guard against liars and other evildoers.Such specimens often try to look good,but they will never do anybody a favour unless there is something in it for them.
A compelling example of a source of extreme aggravation is the ban on smoking just about everywhere,particularly pubs.This is the result of a hysterical bombardment of b.s. orchestrated by miserable specimens whose motto seems to be 'Find out what people like and make them stop it'.
The upshot of this is that pubs are either going out of business or becoming fast food restaurants where mothers can have their gin and tonics or whatever while their kids run around all over the place.That's a joke,and it isn't even funny.People who want that should campaign for junk food joints to apply for a liquor licence and leave pubs alone.
