FED UP with the "Florida's cursed/karmic payback" etc. on hurricanes |
|
All y'all just STFU. :mad:
This is serious. They're deadly and destructive and can turn your life upside down before you know it. I feel not only for everyone in the continental U.S. but for Cubans, Jamaicans, Grenadians, etc. hurt by this storm, the last one, the one before that, all of them.
Hurricanes happen. It's the price you pay for living in paradise.
It's NOT for the election 2000 fiasco, Jeb Bush, Katherine Harris, Diebold, freepers, etc. etc. etc.
If I see ONE MORE post like that I'm gonna hafta hit somebody.

2. I think that most are just trying to joke it off in an attempt to |
|
make it not seem so bad. Does that make sense? I'm sure that I'm mangling my own thought.
I have been a little saddened that people are saying that this is God's wrath but I try to understand the need for laying blame or creating a reason for something when there is none.

3. no one deserves the kind of pounding they have gotten |
|
down there this month. Florida, in fact, had more people TRYING to vote Gore, so why would they be punished?

I agreed with a similar sentiment someone made in LBN.
Just don't hit me too hard -- I bruise easy.

I wanted to post what you just did. But I'm still in shock. Some people just don't realize how bad it is in Florida right now!

9. alrighty then - how about this inflammatory statement |
|
rush savage oreally listeners had better walk their talk, and in no way look to their government for any handout coming out my tax money for reconstruction, after all they choose to live there. And if rush etc. were not such girlymen they would be shouting this out...... :evilgrin:
go ahead and hit me now........
*I don't know what i am talking about, i don't believe any of this....I am praying that this storm misses florida completely. :hug:

10. Rush lives in Florida -- doubt he'll say much about it |
|
And as for the rest, chalk it up to cognitive dissonance and the disconnect between what happens to others that could happen to them.

11. Don't hit me, but try to understand. The schadenfreude you sense |
|
among us DUers is about fundies like Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell who keep yapping that catastrophes are some sort of divine punishment.
Well, well, we're saying - invoking divine wrath CUTS BOTH WAYS.
