Lesson On Irony

 
Two Statements that speak volumes:

Irony 1

“We are told NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics.”

BUT on the other hand……. “We are also encouraged TO judge ALL Gun Owners by the actions of a few lunatics.”

Irony 2

The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever, to 47 million people as of the most recent figures available in 2013.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us “Please Do Not Feed the Animals.”

Their stated reason for the policy is because “The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.”

Thus Ends Today’s Lesson On Irony
