Re: Everyone is going crazy...even those here on GLP
We've become a society of intolerance, impatience, and disregard.

I was in a store today in line, I heard an employee saying, "we need a wheelchair, there isn't one at the front of the store and this man needs a chair". The employee seemed tiffed that she had to go locate a wheelchair. There was a bench seat, around this wall I could see, and I turned to see who needed help. Young man with a severely disabled brother or friend with him. I got out of line, walked up to the men, to let the man know there was a bench close by and asked if he needed help to sit his brother or friend down.

My point? Everyone stared at me, walking out of line, to go offer help to the two men. No one offered help. They stare, but they can't get out of their place in line, to help a vulnerable adult. This is our society, a bunch of people who will stand around and not help fellow man.

I dislike the majority of our society. However, I won't stop offering help, when someone is vulnerable and in need, clearly, of help.

Okay, I'm done venting now too, OP lol.

Many of us out there are kind hearted...just a selfish society and world we live in now, sadly.

I hope and PRAY that more men and women will stand up and demonstrate what you do and did today! THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart and God bless you!!!!

You are kind, thank you. I think OP understands, as many, that this society is going downhill. I cannot see it getting better, sadly.

Seagal5 - you did the right thing - kudos.

OP - you've got a good heart to see this, and a sharp mind to understand the strangeness that's going on in people. Don't be like so many and try to lay blame too close to home, it's more of a global problem these days. Used to be people knew each other, our worlds were smaller, it was much easier to make that judgement call that allowed for helping others. Today we are beset by news items where somebody somewhere did something nasty to someone else, but sometimes nobody knows who it was and it makes us draw in on ourselves. A little bit at a time and before long it adds up to a big thing, a knot in the back of our heads that hurts. Fear rules the day, for even if you do something good, if its not poltically correct, you are to blame. It's evough to drive anyone insane that holds on to their ethics and decides not to follow the sheep.

There are other reasons for going crazy, but this is the one I see most, and its the one we have the power to change because its ourselves that perpetrate it. I going with Seagal's way of doing things, since it's my way too. Don't give up.

The time is near when the 6th seal will be broken, then it will be that 'the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains', those vaults we've heard about.

Then earth will become semi wasteland over time, then the two witnesses will come, the beast will be released, then the final choice will be made.

Is it just me or is everyone going over the edge. It seems like hatred is rampant, the preppers are diving off the charts. Is this what we have become....mental?

Re: Everyone is going crazy...even those here on GLP
Didn't read the whole thread, but answering your question:
Yes, everything is getting CRAZY! I live here in Brasil and I freaking LOVE this country. I know we have many problems and one of the worse ones is criminality. We use to deal with it in a daily basis, it was fine. A couple weeks ago, the criminals organized themselves and started terrorize the population. Burning buses, killing random people and a goal to kill at least 10 cops a day(which they are fulfilling). And it doesn't stops here. The MSM will not show this, after all we are the country that will host the next soccer world cup and the next Olympic games, so they need to show that everything is fine here, punishing publicly some corrupt politicians(a true theater), showing lots of improvements in all areas. What they DON'T show is the CURFEW that criminals imposed on population. You read it right CURFEW, if you are caught in the street after 7pm and didn't pay the "toll" you got a good chance of being SHOT DEAD. I almost can hear you saying "police", well, I got bad news again, police here is a joke, just another victim of these criminals, remember, at least 10 are shot dead every single day(don't even look you won't find too much on the MSM about this). So, yes, the world is going crazy, things will go out of control very soon.

If you think I'm an ass for suggesting taking care of your own...What does that make you....? A Traitor....? Hater of your own...? Selfish.....?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21948869


Don't take me wrong. I thought you were quoting me back and I made a smart assed reply. I'm not a traitor by any means. I love our country and would do anyting to help it. Selfish, maybe, but not real likely.
 Quoting: Borian


Thanks for clearing that up. I feel better now and have some faith in you. Karma for you when I sign in I promise. Glad you would help your own,
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21948869


Always help your own, but you are Canadian, nothing wrong with that. eh.
