I do mean 5 am as that's when I'm getting out of my shower and starting to cook breakfast.


I hope that's at least when you need to be up for work or something. I've done that before, but when left up to me....my usual wake up time is 10am-noon. An 1:30 pm today Stern Smile

Edit: Rob? Eh, too lazy go back and check all the pages...
So have I actually missed  anything over these last 5 or so pages? Besides atheism and waking up at 5am?LOL

And both of you missed my point.

I mourn when someone doing a service to my family dies.  A homeless bum, regardless of why he is homeless, does nothing for my family.


And what your family does for the homeless bum?


Nothing.  Which is why I wouldn't expect him to mourn any of us if we perished.

No one noticed/took seriously my idea of arming the homeless.
Than we can eliminate all welfare an government involvement and leave it up to pure competition.
The banks and wealthy better stockpile weapons!
And think of the killing to be made by investing in gun manufacturers.

Why does everyone think Im joking about this?

Vlad Tepes once invited all the poor, crippled, and homeless in his kingdom to a great feast.  After a night of food and drink Vlad ordered his men to board up the doors of the hall, in which it was held, and set it aflame.  No one escaped the fire.
 
Yet another reason to support decentralization!

No, that was an anti homeless killing post.

You could've said, instead of a homeless bum, anything else. This also applies (I guess) if a successful business man dies. There was no need to specifically mention "homeless drunk" as it seems is the only reason you wouldn't mourn. You wouldn't mourn because that person is nothing to you. Period. The same as a cop (for me at least, unless I actually know the cop or his family. )

Seeing that the name you mention is in some way related to the origins of my avatar, I feel offended. AngryTongueTongue

I missed a lot of what was said...but honestly, unless you have a VERY abnormal passion/caring for people I dont think anyone would mourn the death of someone not directly, or somehow involved with you.
Not that anyone is happy about it, it is sad when anyone dies...but I wouldn't mourn the death of just any bum/cop/businessman or anyone, unless I knew them.

May be way out of left field but that's my 2 cents out of what I gathered LOL

Sure.  At least I know you get my point.
