COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — The owner of a Colorado funeral home and his wife were arrested Wednesday in Oklahoma on charges linked to the discovery of 190 sets of decaying remains at one of their facilities, including some that apparently had been languishing there for four years.
Not a Colorado thing. A US thing. Having spent most of my life outside the US, I can tell you that most people in other developed countries often shake their heads in disbelief at US events and news stories. And it’s not getting any better.
Absolute nonsense.
Japan.
India.
Mexico.
Romania.
And so on and so forth.
Not saying there aren’t crazies in other countries. The nutbag stories originating in the US are just overwhelming in sheer amount.
But it seems to be. As a CO resident and native, as progressive as we are as a state we are, we sure have some weirdos.
I’m often surprised at the amount of backwoods and Racist things I hear about about the state on social media. I’ve visited neighboring states but I’ve not quite made it to CO yet. Hopefully those media pieces are just overblown?
Sort of. “Nothing weird happened today” doesn’t make the news.
