107. I don't think the issue is that people do dumb things, really....
The issue is that people do dumb things knowing those dumb things could screw up their lives, then whine over the consequences. Like it's some huge secret. OMG!!! I didn't KNOW that carrying weed would get me xxx penalty!!!!


OK...a five year old wouldn't know there are consequences for carrying weed.

But any adult with an IQ over 99? They do know. Unless they've been living under a rock their whole lives.

If it's illegal, dangerous, or immoral and you do it, don't act like the penalty is a huge surprise...
