For God's sakes, you guys! We're talking about a HOMELESS person here! Sorry, but I have zero sympathy for  homeless jaywalkers and I've been tempted to run over a few of them myself.

I got into an altercation several months ago with some derelect who tried to grab my 12 pack of Budweiser in the 7-11 parking lot and made me drop it, bursting several cans. Worse than that the sucker scratched my hand and now I have to get a blood test once a month for HIV. And the REAL kicker is that even though this guy has a criminal record I am not allowed access to his personal medical information under Right to Privacy laws! PLUS I got cited for kicking him in the balls for scratching my hand and wrecking my 12 pack, and all I was trying to do was subdue him until the police arrived so they could check this a-hole for AIDS. That one is still pending, BTW, but I've been charged with assault, although my attorney tells me the DA will drop all charges due to the "inability" of the "victim" to coherently recall the event. Now THAT makes me feel good about the scratch on my hand, huh?

Bottom line? We, a working stiff, limited to only drink 9 beers that evening instead of my customary 12, staring at a severely scratched hand wondering what kind of diseases I've just come in contact with, facing criminal charges, my wife refusing to have sex with me until I am cleared medically (although I really can't blame her. I'm too scared to even mastrubate without a condom)...and the Homeless Dude...kicking back in a hospital bed, TV remote in hand, watching some dumb-ass Fox TV "reality show" like "Survivor"as he presses the Morphene Drip button mainlining pure watermelon that he could never EVER afford on the streets at TAXPAYER expense- where in the hell is the justice in that?

You leftist bleeding hearts like AK Deja Vu, Ripsnort and AK Wabbit who are all crying about the plight of some worthless piece of human garbage are what is wrong with our Country. We need to rid ourselves of the plague of homeless in America. We should load them up on transports and send THEM to Afghanistan to fight. Why in the Hell are we sending the very best we have to fight? Send the Homeless- and if we lose, who cares?

I am sorry Ripsnort, AK DejaVu and AK Wabbit, but I must squelch you. Your constant leftist viewpoint concerning putting Homeless People in Government-Paid Homeless Shelters in MY neighborhood is simply too much, even for my centerist opinion. You three are the biggest bleeding-heart liberals I have ever seen and, frankly, I am confident I speak for many here when I state that your Pinko-Communist viewpoint is not welcome on these Boards.

Elfenwolf, is your lawyer name, Leonard "J." Crabs, by any chance?

Fantasic stuff by the way.

Well, I'm shocked and disgusted that anyone would do something so horrible, but... I'll get on with my life, just as soon as I'm done typing this post.  I hope that the woman gets locked up for life. This should never happen again. That will be all.

We are very sorry for your pain Elfen and will consider you in our thoughts and prayers.

P.S. Your satire, at least I believe it may be satire, is brillant. Remember the Georgia Crematory incident when you gave a counterpoint that we all have occassionally let our inbox get a little too full. For me now, that is sadistically humorous. At the same time I feel sympathy for the familes. It creates a most interesting paradox.

Does anyone remember that antimated link "Who Let the Dogs Out?"  That was somewhat humorous and at the same time I felt ashamed for feeling such emotion. Yet another paradox.

OH MY GOD MY NEW HERO.
Sir, you are welcome to take my firstborn child for bondage, and I will go ahead and squelch those deviants myself.

Rogwar and Animal, Thanks for your kind words, but like all the users of this BB there occasionally is dropped upon our heads a subject that causes us great emotional turmoil that raises the hackles of our righteous indignation to such a point that our only alternative is to squelch.

Ripsnort, AK Wabbit and AK Deja Vu have crossed the line... Ripsnort because he is an anal-retentive poser who only PRETENDS he's not killing kittens and AK Deja Vu and AK Wabbit because they are incestious cousins. Believe me, I squelched them with great regret, but nonetheless, I have squelched them.

Now to prove I'm not a total dick I will give Ripsnort the Yanker and the Incestious Cousins of AK a second chance- Post that I am your daddy and that you like being spanked  hard with my fat leather belt, kiss my taint with a bit of tongue in my milk dud and I will unsquelch you. This is my final offer, AK Wads.

Heh.. seems like my reply brought quite the stir. Point of fact, I lost a very good friend to an accident. He's gone... it hurt like hell and messed w/me for a long time and seldom does a day go by that I DONT think of him. I KNEW HIM, he was my friend.
 

 Now..some guy dies that I dont know... far away. Yea..I'm like man that sucks. And YES I think the indiv who did it is a pretty fu(*ed up indiv who deserves what they get. BUT... how is THIS going to "hurt me"...huh? Tell me how many of you are feeling the loss and remorse that perhaps somebody who KNEW him is? Your not...period.

All I'm saying is that I feel people give or show remorse or pity for something that is very remote to them...its safe that way. If you have true feelings for this sort of thing...if there is some sort of horror in your heart for the helpless, the hurt, the weak etc...then DO SOMETHING more than talk about it. Give a bum something warm to wear perhaps. Donate to the Salvation Army... help out in your local soup kitchen... etc.

Sorry to of annoyed anyone...it wasnt my intention.

 xBAT
Of course, I only see what he posts here and what he does in the MA.  I know virtually nothing about the man.  I think its important for people to realize that we don't really know squat about each other.... definately not enough to use words like "hate".

batdog, I understood exactly what you were saying, and you owe NOBODY an apology for expressing your opinion. Thanks for sharing, and if anybody doesn't like it then they have the Squelch Command to help them deny the truth. .

Un-diddlying-believable....

I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth are and the news this morning said that her lawyers are claiming the police are inflating the charges and making a mountain out of a molehill.  They say its just a simple case of "failing to stop and render aid."

We did't know thee guy and all so feeling wise we might not be so involved.

Only 'it could have been you'. Think she'd gived a f*ck? Probably not.

Then there's another thing. That slow rage and hatred you get worked up for a person like this.

Just being on this BB has made me review many of my moral standings. Am beginning to think that th death penalty, under certain conditions, might not be a bad idea at all.

Elfenwolf - nice, very nice. My type of humour.

Still, the case described is very hard to believe. This world is rather shrecked up.

Wow.  Now I found this thread.  Anyway, empathy and compassion does not mean you have to lose sleep.  

<>
I too have had incidents with persons and I could easily hold ill-will towards those persons' groups of color, religion, music taste or whatever, but I don't.  I've lost people too and that does not mean I'm allowed to be any more insensitive towards a death.  The real kicker here to me is that this woman's actions are another knock against the nature of our humanity.  Or, I can't possibly categorize this person as being the same type of being as me.  We cannot solve all the world's troubles individually, but when you have a man impaled in your car and you let him die a slow death in your garage (how long would she have kept him there?), it's a very ugly shadow on our nature.  This makes me sad.  I'll probably remember this story to the end of my days.

Some of you really disturb me.
