15 Important Life Lessons We Learned From South Park

8. Psychos Come From The Least Obvious Place

We live in a paranoid world, and it€™s all too easy to accuse the most likely suspect of depraved and sickening behaviour just for our comfort's sake. However, in episodes like Cripple Fight, the South Park gang show that wild accusations can often hit the wrong targets. In a subplot in the episode, Big Gay Al is disbarred from being the leader of the scouts simply for being gay because he might be a pedophile. He€™s replaced by a brawny masculine figure that is very obviously, a pedophile. One injustice and a half indeed. See The Passion of the Jew too where South Park€™s depiction of Mel Gibson who is otherwise praised by Cartman and the town as a genius is revealed to be insane. Wait, that might be true in reality too. Be weary, but not too weary.
