More Christian "kindness" helps to remind us what this season REALLY means:

I don't think it's nice of you to talk about leaningright in that manner.

edit to add - can you ever say anything nice to me? ever? would it kill you?

Yes, it would indeed kill me to be nice to anyone. There is a built in self-destruct sequence that will initiate the second I stop being an arrogant ass. Sorry, but you wouldn't want me to die would you?
 
Darla said:
I'm nice to you, and you're a freaking republican. And I'll tell ya something, being nice to you ain't doing my reputation any good with other liberals either. And what's the first thing you do when you get here? Log in to insult me! Well, we will see about this.

Well, at least you know you're an arrogant ass, I guess that is something!

THat's 3D. All of these "Emperors" confuse the hell out of me too. But water is the one who has the "Far right" legend, and then you can tell Grind and Billy because theirs say moderator.

It's all very annoying, but kids, what are you going to do?

Thanks for the clarification. Not sure it'll stick in my old brain but I'll do my best to try to keep up. :)

I all ready told you once and you still don't get it you nitwit.

THEY AINT FUCKING SELLING WIDGETS!!!!

Being a Fireman is a profession and professions have standards of ethics and behavior. You're just proving my point that you don't have that first fucking clue what it means to be a professional!

Well, these 'firemen' are blokes like you and me....not professionals, ......they are volunteers of the community,......

students, ditch diggers, mechanics, roofers, garbage men, etc..... and thats irrelevant.....

we live by rules, like it or not......we pay for our services, like it or not......the local drug store don't give away meds to anyone.....

Bullshit again. I work with Firemen on a very regular basis and I've trained a ton of them over the years and they are indeed profesionals with a profesional ethic and I can tell you from first hand experience that the overwhelming majority of the ones I know would be appalled by this story and would refuse an order to stand by and watch a home burn for these reasons because they would consider it unethical as hell and unprofessional. If you think Firemen are common day laborers you don't know shit about Firemen either!
 
Obviously that sucks, but what does this have to do with Christianity?

Zappa seems to have a deep hatred for Christianity. Perhaps he'd be more happy in an Islamic country, such as Iran or Saudi Arabia.

I wonder when he was sailing the seven seas whether he would have approved of his ship refusing to pick up people shipwrecked unless they paid for it first?

Life at risk is not a EMPTY building on fire.......is it......have someone explain the difference to you...

Bulshit....I've been a small town volunteer firemen and know dozens of them, and the closest you get to being a 'professional' is learning how to operate the fire truck and not get yourself killed in action.....
 
Mott the Hoople said:
That may well be true but it doesn't change the fact that the actions of these Firemen was unprofessional, unethical and unchristian and the public should be outraged by this ethical lapse.

As I said. The ethical and right thing to have done would have been to put the fire out and then charge the family for the full cost of services because they didn't pay their annual fee. To permit their home to burn down is just fucking reprehensible.

You remember the good old days Mott?

Back when people could be counted on to do the ethical thing...not because they expect remuneration or fame, but because it was the RIGHT THING TO DO!

When were the good old days? I want to know if I was alive during this period. (born in '72)

It was before we were born. It is the mindset that was common among the greatest generation and annihilated by the baby boomers. Their gimme gimme gimme attitude and life style has all but destroyed what the greatest generation fought so hard for.
