Border Drugs

i have a different take on helping people.
i was raised to take care of myself and not take handouts and we were very poor.
we ate what we raised and grew tobacco for Christmas money.
i see all these do-gooders gathering food boxes, giving stuff to salvation army, etc.
i wonder if this is the right thing to do.
if you let your kid lay on their butt and give them everything they want, they'll never make an effort.
i'll help anybody that's down on their luck but they must be willing to work to support themselves.
all these give away programs from the government, churches, etc. are just like giving more dope to a dope head.
half the country is living on handouts and don't try to help themselves.
my sister was treasurer for large church and they gave away over 1 million dollars every year.
she said it was the same people lined up every monday and most didn't attend church there.
some are too stupid to help themselves but some are just plain lazy and we know who these freeloaders vote for.
it's sickening so many don't have enough gumption to support themselves and all they have to do is vote for corrupt politicians.
i pity my grandchildren.

you became jaded because you were poor.

I became more empathetic.

I make very good money now but I’ve also been homeless while working 90 hour weeks because I couldn’t afford the first and last for getting an apartment.

I will always give a dollar to anyone panhandling, go buy a chic sandwich for a guy who has a starving vet sign and bring it to him.
because I can and I learned money doesn’t make happiness, the happiest moments I have are when we as a family went and made a big supper from what was around.

There was a fork in the road and you went down the “no one helped me out so why should I ever help anyone else out” route.

what a shame

Red Dawn was not real Geo. It was a movie dude. It was make believe.

Well NO ****..........

Kind of good movie too, if you ask me.....Shows the AMERICAN Spirit, or at least what used to be the American Spirit.

And smiles the entire time.

You know, I do feel quite sad for you. Your little life is so meaningless, you spend days on end on this site, trying to communicate with anyone who will.

Sad thing is, I used to pop in here literally daily, sometimes twice a day. I'm lucky if I'm here 1 or 2 times a week. And I unfortunately spend way too much time on the OT board.

Fact of the matter is I have a few friends here. Some I've been fishing with......some I've spent weeks on end with.

I doubt you can SAY that about anyone on the site.

Good luck to you.

I'm glad in your silliness and foolishness, you get a few laughs out of it.

You are on this site more than anyone else. I'm just here to counter your BS. And that is a huge job because you spew a lot of Red BS.

Hey seriously.

On this site and in these conversations:

What exactly do you hope to gain by name calling, casting dispersions on character, bullying comments, threats.

I'm not guiltless either, by trying to clean up may act and respond to comments with facts or just my opinion.

Ya know folks we can agree to disagree.

I mean really, when someone starts name calling and making threats, do you really gain anything and do you actually think the person on the other side of the comments is intimidated? Really?

And when someone does do that stuff, if you respond in kind hasn't that person actually modified your behavior, ergo, is now to a degree controlling your behavior?

It's hard to hold back when I am called names and people use words like extreme or radical. But you are right, it gets us nowhere. We talked about this before and it's come back again.

Absolutely agree it has to be a board thing and provocation seems to abound here.

Geo took advantage of this.
