hyperactive Posted May 30, 2007 #1276 Share Posted May 30, 2007 bm... read the scenario again. the question was not if i would ignore it all weekend long, but if I would burst into the room to stop it. I was being very honest about how I suspect I would react in that scenario based on "best guess" extrapolated from my non-violent nature and track record. It is easy to say you would burst into the room but unless you are a police officer, member of a military force, or some other profession where you are trained to act in such scenarios, your estimate as to what you would do tends to be less than accurate (the closer the hypothetical scenario is to your past experiences, the more accurate your estimate will be). As I stated before, if you think this is not true, why do you think children are so easily abducted in broad daylight in front of several witnesses?

brave_new_world Posted May 30, 2007 #1277 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I think it is stupid to blame religion for all the guilt and shame in the world. But I think it is fair to blame organized religion for about 99.9% of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+joc Posted May 30, 2007 #1278 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Imagine if one of your lil kids were under a rape attack by a dirty rotten sex offender and you knew someone like him was ignoring it all and walked on by without helping the child...im sure you wouldnt be all --> nah not him, he is a trained health pro... And this would be happening where?...on the sidewalk in front of Hyper's house?...as he was going out to get his mail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckys_Mom Posted May 30, 2007 #1280 Share Posted May 30, 2007 (edited) Geri, for goodness sake's, I don't believe for one moment that hyper would be so cruel and moronic, as to suggest on a public forum, that he would turn a blind eye to that crime, about to happen a few feet away from him ?? C'mon, that would mean he is a cold hearted, ruthless and despicable human being...... MUM its not the fact that its hyper ...it could have been anyone in here to make the remark...anyone..and I would have reacted the very same way If anyone ie hyper makes a remark like that...thats enough to set me off...I dont give a monkies if they are trained chimps lol...or mirical workers in real life....you make a remark like that...dont sit there and expect people not to set off on you put it this way...y'all know I defend gay rights?? all the time right?? What would you think if you read a post from me that read ----> if i saw a gay person get attacked..I would walk on by... What would then think??... A ) - Is this the BM that fights constantly for gays? B ) - What se says on line, may not be what she would do in real life...can't help but wonder? (well you dont know me personally do ya?) C) - Prolly..asounds just like her D) - has to be a typo For all you know MUM I may well be like that in real life.....dont let certain words fool you I for one couldnt turn a blind eye to any kid getting attacked....neither could you Edited May 30, 2007 by Beckys_Mom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+joc Posted May 30, 2007 #1289 Share Posted May 30, 2007 This isn’t about whether someone agrees with /disagrees with or would help/or not help in any given situation…the whole hypothetical of being in the same place where a pedophile is sodomizing a boy is absurd. How many of you have EVER encountered that situation…right, I didn’t think so…and yet you want to crucify someone for answering your hypothetical in a way ‘different’ from the way you would answer it. You want to crucify for NOT answering a hypothetical and then when someone does you want to crucify them for the answer…what a hypocritical though process some of you have….

He was answering in a hypothetical way to sugar coat it..water it down..a way of saying .well if it were really none of my business I wouldnt help - MORALS..who has them?? And tell me how the heck to you expect anyone to be able to see this kind of thing happen on a daily basis?? When a sex offender snatches a child...he sure as hell not going to sexually assult them in public..is he?? If a man drops his pants in public..will be sure to get a hiding from passers by....I HAVE SEEN IT HAPPEN I have seen men get the tar knocked clean out of them for so much a hitting a child in public.............. and here you are trying to tell others they may not intervine???

Well joc, as you and I are typing away on our keyboards at this very moment, somewhere in this world a child is being sodomised and of course we couldn't have possibly stopped it from happening......I think the hypothetical situation put to hyper originally, was more specific than that......

As I stated before, if you think this is not true, why do you think children are so easily abducted in broad daylight in front of several witnesses? One thing that crosses my mind whenever I read this thread-- Something that disturbes me to no friggin end too-- The amount of biological mothers we see that actually choose the step father/father/bf over their own daughters in cases of accusations of child sexual abuse. IT IS AMAZING FOLKS at how many women do NOT stand by their very own daughters, but choose to believe their husbands/bf over their very own children. As mothers we declare in protective instinct "I will KILL the SOB!" (As I feel convinced I would do without a second thought) but to KNOW the actual HIGH numbers of women who choose security over the protection/belief of their kids who have said the same thing before... Look up those stats.. see the numbers it's sickening.. my point is we don't know until we get there, all we can do is ASSUME what we will do until then..& pray we never have to face it.

Welcome to the "Light" side. Gotta love irony, don't ya? This also speaks to intellectual elitism. This is the type of mindset that leads to a "there can be no wrong" society, in which people expect a population to self-police, self-correct and "learn through love". When the reality is (and not MY reality either, the WORLDS reality) that there are always those who will not do "the right thing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all fairness he has answered more than once in many ways... sis, he is right too a kid can get abdcuted right under your nose it has happened in my neighborhood to our neighbor kid( it turned out to be her Dad) ..no one saw anything... as much as we would like to be heros and I am no exception.... until the situation presents itself we just don't know. and I hope like hell it never does to any child.... i went to school with a peodophile noone knew he was one until it was too late.. i grew up with this guy ...It was the saddest thing.....
