  • I feel like it’s easy to agree with some parts of my opinion and disregard or refute the rest. I know it is no consolation to the deceased that the responsible ones for their departure be held accountable but it still wouldn’t deter me from the same course that caused harm or death, hypothetically speaking.

  • Gotta say that I hadn’t heard of purple prose before but it is by far the greatest compliment I have ever received. Flowery and too poetic, that’s me to a fucking T.

    The paradox of tolerance protecting itself by becoming intolerant of intolerance. Eventually we fight absurdity with absurdity but the trick is knowing when to scale back to abject reality. I let that be the concerns of other people.

  • None of the things you’ve said were unreasonable and I freely admit to knowing my attitude towards death can be shockingly cavalier but sometimes you have to be willing to cross the line. I have a sense that old age or natural causes aren’t in the cards for me and I hope that it’s my actions and not my words that do me in, I just will never know for sure until my time is up.

    It doesn’t work if there isn’t a deep understanding of personal responsibility. While there are causes that have gained my participation I have yet to find something I’m willing to bleed for much less possibly harm someone else by doing the things I say I believe people have a right to. If I catch an involuntary manslaughter then I caught an involuntary manslaughter and I will be made to pay, either time or cash for the benefit of society. And for my benefit I hope to find or create an opportunity to lessen the burden of death on my hands. That’s all I can do, all we can do and the buck don’t stop at sorry.

    Any prevention that can be taken should be taken but what is preventable isn’t always so and what was impossible to account for is sometimes within the plan. You do the best you can at the time and roll with the punches as they come.

  • So glad for your edit, added some interesting points.

    Maybe turning this into the trolley problem will shed some light on how I think for ya. I will always sacrifice the few to save the many. Put my parents, my partner, my lovely cats on the line and as long as what I’m sacrificing is less than what stands to be saved then Imma pull that fucking lever and rail the few for the many. But it’s all hypothetical, we can’t for sure know what any of us would do until the shit actually hits the fan. I could always be a coward.

    Now you don’t have to like it or even understand the way I feel and view the world but you should know that only arguments equally as convincing as the circumstances that lead me to where I stand could ever begin to sway me away.

  • I respect your positioning but to arrive at my conclusions these beliefs had to be abandoned. Obviously that seems irrational and insane but I’ve never had a good claim on reason or sanity. It’s a constant struggle of whether I’m the crazy one or if everyone else are the ones with the cracked marbles. Only experience has forced me away from what is normal and accepted and I wouldn’t wish the strife that molded me on anyone else but it’s not my fault that human nature’s best teacher is misery.

  • I suppose it can read like that but I don’t think it’s effective in that regard. Maybe you don’t get them on your side but if you get them riled enough they might start looking at other problems that might need fixing. The enemy of my enemy is at the very least a possible ally. It’s a better position than aware of the problem you’ve been shouting about but deemed not worthy of action.

  • Ain’t trying to insult you or disrespect your family so maybe I’ll ask some questions that we might find common ground. If not, no harm no foul, thank you for your time and have a good one mate.

    If you would be willing to kill for your family, as you said you’d run me over if I placed myself between you and your kin, would you also be willing to die for them? At the end of all options some fucked up scenario where one or all of your family would live and prosper but only your sacrifice would ensure so, would you willingly get turned into a meat crayon for them? If not them then what? I hardly meet people who don’t hold anything so dear they wouldn’t be willing to die for. Now doing and talking are night and day but all we doing is talking.

    If there’s nothing worth laying your life down for keep on trucking on trucking on babe, nothing here concerns you and many blessings to you and your family

  • Zero effect on you but not the person sitting next to you or the one behind you. If you are willing and able to crush one or several people under your vehicle for the sake of your precious family. Do so. The person impeding your path needs to be alright at that possibility.
