God love you, Jane, what a sweet heart you have!! I am not without compassion and I, too, believe ". . . but for the grace of God there go I." (And I've been there more than a normal person's share of times.) But if all we had in this whole world were people who had nothing but compassion our world would be in worse shape than it is now. People expressing their opinions about what they consider "right" and "wrong" ways to act is a huge part of what keeps this world in line. Even though I feel Cindy has acted "wrong" does not mean I have no compassion for her own personal losses and trials. It means I don't approve of her actions because they hurt other people. It rains on the good and the bad alike -- we all have our skeletons and personal sufferings. Society even has a responsibility to keep us all in check. Either extreme, bleeding hearts or vigilantes, would not be good but both produce a good check and balance and I think that's what's being represented on this thread.
Thanks

I think ? lol but I am not a bleeding heart either
![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
- if that is what you think ?
I just find it hard to deal with vigilante' ism - it frightens me. I think of back to the days when women were considered witches for certain things that are completely normal these days and many days before
![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
and they were burned at the stake
I think of the Black Races that were bonded into slavery and tortured and murdered in indescribable ways.
It frightens me.
It frightens me to read things out there in the WWW with words of such hate like *fry her* and *fry her quick* and other very vile and hateful things in regards to Casey.
And whilst I think that Justice MUST BE SERVED To whoever breaks the law, it frightens me that people can be so hateful.
It just frightens me, and makes me sad...
We live in a very scary world these days, the amount of drugs being pushed around and turning good kids into monsters is frightening, the amount of murders being committed against family members is frightening , the amount of children missing VANISHED forever is frightening.....
Adding to all that with hate is just being a non tolerant world and adding to the violence of the world...
I do not condone ANY acts of violence and I believe in Justice...but as I grow older I also grow tired of all the hate in the world. (and as I said it frightens me- I do not want my children growing up in this type of a world)
Now I am sure I have bored you all with my :boohoo
