Ohio Walmart Holds Food Drive For Its Own Employees
labrys replied to ibx's topic in Speakers Corner
I'm not a fan of Wal-Mart and I wouldn't normally think to defend them, but this feels like a torch and pitchfork mob reaction to me. I don't see why anyone should think that having a food drive for people who are down on their luck is a bad thing. Canton isn't a wealthy city. Most of the people who work at that Wal-Mart are probably happy to have a job. If they get together to help a fellow employee out over the holidays then good on them. Owned by Remi #? -
Don't mean to speak for Bill, just wanted to answer. He should get the same consideration as anyone else accused of the same crime... The more that I think about how it should be handled, the harder it sounds to handle it. Hard to find an objective jury. Hard to keep him safe in jail... He's kind of a one-off. Our court system should be centered on not subjecting anyone to undue punishment. It's a hard one. Owned by Remi #?

I disagree. If what he did would normally result in jail time for someone, then he "needs" jail time. No special treatment. Lots of people make bad decisions due to external stress that land them in jail. ETA, what I'm saying is that he needs to be held accountable for his actions. Not holding him just as accountable as anyone else is just reinforcing his negative behavior. He should seriously consider therapy as well. Owned by Remi #?

Being more creative doesn't remotely suggest that one is "non-logical" or the other way around. Owned by Remi #?

Yeah, but the general idea of how people process information remains, even if there isn't a "side-ness" to it. Owned by Remi #?

Actually, his question was more like "my dad doesn't like the taste of the peanut butter, but it's the only peanut butter we have. what might we add to it to make it taste better?" And your answer was more like "get different peanut butter? Owned by Remi #?

so now that the government can mandate that we buy something . . .
labrys replied to turtlespeed's topic in Speakers Corner
So hey... how would you feel about this? Let's also have the government *make* people buy food and tax them a little extra when they don't prove that they bought food. We could use those taxes to pay for food stamps for people who can't afford to buy food or just didn't buy food. It's brilliant, huh? Seriously. Owned by Remi #? -
I've never met a skydiver that jumps because they give a rats ass what anyone else thinks or would consider being that kind of ass-gasket... that shirt screams "I'm a drama queen/king" who might do something stupid or dangerous to get attention at your expense. Owned by Remi #?

If you want to do that, fine. All you have to do is convince enough people that it's a good idea and start a grassroots effort. Lobby Congress, raise money to advertise and convince even more people until you finally have enough support to actually get it done. It's easy. Owned by Remi #?

I'm 14. Would you let me pack for you???

I'm pretty amused by this Texas state record / Simon issue. I've only been jumping for 11-12 years now and so I wasn't around when free-flying really picked up, but I *do* remember, when I first started, seeing and hearing people attracted to FF because there wasn't any of the drama associated with RW and peer pressure and getting the right grip or turning the right point. I really did tell my friends that it would only take a little time. Owned by Remi #?
