isn't a public board though?

I just don't think that I'm no one to judge anyone.

Let a judge do that or the man upstairs.Chat Icon



it's not about "judging" b/c it's not up for "interpretation".

If you wanna be a slut, be a slut. if you wanna cheat on your spouse, go ahead...if you wanna shoplift, I'm not mad at ya...

but drinking and driving should not be explained away, condoned, "to each their own'ed" in any way shape for form..simply b/c it can effect you or me at ANY time.

the effects are so arbitrarily metted out, and so completely unfair, that we cannot be tolerant or turn a blind eye or defend those that chose to make the most selfish of decisions.

it's not judgmental...it's looking out for your OWN good, and the good of your family.



well said and I agree - but no need to rehash all of this again



ITA. again, poor judgement and bad decision but the point was well made. time to move on.

just an fyi b/c I don't know how self absorbed you are...but I don't think this is about YOU or what YOU did anymore.

I can say with certainty, that my comments are not directed at YOU, specifically.

you are not being persecuted. take yourself off the pyre.




i have to agree. Just as i said in my post last night, too- it was not about YOU, jes, it was about the topic at hand.

and honestly, who cares if another thread causes drama... its just one more thread.... posts about game shows cause drama around here... at least this one's got a public service announcement to it Chat Icon

Re: If you don't wanna hear it...

all I am saying is posting about a black and white topic like drunk driving (never OK), murder (never OK), adultery (never OK) then expect a bit of backlash...

AND

this is a public board so if you post you should expect judgement/opinions, both to your face (posts) and behind your back (in FM--cmon, you know you do it) because if that didn't happen, then Ron wouldn't be a rich man Chat Icon

I wasn't being specific to you Jes, just in general. It's like the people who post something controversial and then edit the OP out (drives me nuts) OR the old "don't quote this"...puh-lease

I'm curious, as to why this bothers you. If someone wants to vent or get opinions but doesn't want a record out there forever of it, what's the problem with that or is that not what you meant?

I agree. Not everyone is comfortable with putting information "out there." I once posted about something and after it went up, I realized I did not want that info to be public. We are allowed to change our minds in hindsight or ask for quick opinions, etc. I don't see the big deal.

totally understandable. but when there are like 50 responses and th eOP themselves have answered back it usually doesn't take a genius to figure out what the OP is...

OR if someone says something and doesn't like the opinions and then take it down cuz they don't wanna hear it, sorry that's annoying...

Re: If you don't wanna hear it...

here's how I feel

In all walks of life, we're all going to do stuff that is offensive to others. Lord knows if I told you some stories, I'd be flamed so bad, I'd be on fire Chat Icon

Is judging someone right? I always go back to that old bible saying "He who's never sinned may cast the first stone" But, the reality is, we're human - judging others who may not be in line with what we're all about is ingrained in us. It's not right, it's not wrong - it just is.

Knowing that, I've just learned to keep certain things and stories, that I know would set people off, to myself, or just share it with those that I know won't get offended.

For example, (Jess, I'm only using your story because it's the freshest case and comes to mind freshly)

If I made a really poor judgement call (which we've all done at some time in our lives), I wouldn't post about it. Or if I did post about it, I would leave out the details that might get me in trouble.

In Jess' case, I might have just said, Please send prayers, I'm worried about my friend - I haven't heard from her since we parted company last night.

End of story - no details of circumstances.

Drunk driving is such an intense issue with so many strong feelings and personal connections, that when you put yourself out there as being involved in it, you have to be prepared to get judged, because that's just how we are.

Okay, I do not know about the drunk driving thing you speak of but yes, there might be an exception here. My cousins, 11 and 14, were murdered because of a drunk driver (killing someone while DWI is murder as far as I am concerned). Also a few years ago I came upon a traffic accident (I'm a paramedic) where a 19 year old was T boned by a drunk driver. The drunk driver was driving with a suspended license from two prior DWI arrests. The drunk drivers car was not registered or insured. The 19 year old young lady died in my arms. So yes, I too am opinionated and a bit judgemental in regard to DWI.
