9. Well, I take stuff like this a little personally.
Having lost my brother in a car accident, I can't see how anyone could laugh knowing the pain this must cause for his family.

16. Maybe he was a jerk, but his life meant something to his family, and
they must be in a great deal of pain and it just isn't funny. I don't like to laugh at the death of anyone.

19. with 18 billion (or however ridiculous much it is)
coming down the pike, im sure the family is coping just fine.

I know that you have personal experience with death, and I am sorry that you lost your brother in an accident, but please don't take my remakes as disparaging to all people who lose loved ones in accidents. death is awful.

That said, its the jerk who owned walmart!!!

21. Yeah but you are saying money can take away the pain
of a life lost. I don't care how big of jerks they were or are, they are still part of the human race and we all feel pain. I know you don't feel this way for all lives lost. But I still think it is a mean thing to laugh at someone elses death. Hell I don't laugh when people are executed for murdering others.

Edited on Wed Jun-29-05 09:24 AM by MadAsHellNewYorker
look at how they run their business, its pretty clear they have a general disdain for human life...no living wage, no health benifits, etc. etc. etc.

in which you used it

35. not really. if you're saying "we" as a blanket phrase to say "Democrats
shouldn't do the same dirty shit as Republicans", then, besides being the same philosophy that has lost us tons of seats and the presidency, i don't think that applies here. if not, then i think it's just a snide way of speaking condescendingly to someone whom you don't know on a message board...

Edited on Wed Jun-29-05 09:37 AM by Shell Beau
We don't laugh in the face of those in pain. I see dems as compassionate people. Caring about the human race. All of it.

On edit I try not to talk down to anyone, whether I know them or not.

32. Do you know anything about this guy?
Do you know he never wanted to be involved in the company at all?

That he only agreed to be on the board if he could be in charge of their charitable giving?

Did you know this about the 'jerkwad?'

43. Same could be said about us Americans too. Do you advocate
all our deaths?

Or do you think that some of us actually try to make a bad situation BETTER in this world?

Read a little about this guy and get off your high horse.

44. I was disgusted with this whole thread until I saw that dog
pissing on the Bush-Cheney sign and it nearly killed me. That might have to be my new desktop. Although, Jessica Alba would be nice.

37. We have been becoming our enemy for some time.
We started using the term "mean spirited" in 1996 against Dole. Now we seem to have come full circle.

40. Being mean and nasty won't get us elected
I don't accept your premise. Clearly illustrating plans to make the world better will win elections.

And... Saying, "I have a plan," without being specific isn't going to work. What is our plan and how are we going to impliment it? Do we know? If we do, we should be out selling it to the public instead of spending out time calling people names and acting like children.
