Odd.... when I hit the ground as a child my parents called it a "fit" and I got punished for it....Systema was awesome last night. We had this one drill where one person was on the ground and two others were circling with punch pads so the guy on the ground can strike at different angles while moving, it was fun.
I understand a desire for justice and even being incensed at senseless or vicious crimes, but the lynch mob mentality is rarely a good thing and usually leads to more violence.OMM: People who trash criminals on Facebook (and especially those who will go to their Facebook page and harass them) and say awful, dehumanizing things about them are no better than the criminals themselves, and are, I would argue, the scum of the earth moreso than what they say the criminals are.
It's okay, we understand. I'm so sorry to hear you haven't had a lot of time. I certainly hope things can improve for you.OMM: I just want to apologize that I'm not here often now that I'm back... Work wears me out to no end... Working as a full time cashier in retail this time a year... Whew! I come home, play on Facebook, eat dinner and crawl into bed just to do the same thing again the next day! ...I was supposed to be off today and tomorrow but now I'm off today and work 2:30-11 in our gas station tomorrow, 9:15-5:45 in the store on Friday and off Saturday and Sunday... If I can, I'll pop in more on Saturday.... Also, I'm sorry I never got votes in for the Christmas thing...

Well, I had another strange dream related to CF last night.
I got up in the morning and went to check CF as usual, but instead of checking the computer I instead used the Advent calendar I made (which is up on the wall). Strangely the Advent calendar showed my alerts and PMs at the top like CF does. Even after being offline for hours I had no alerts, but I did have 3 PMs. I looked at them expecting them to be the ones I've been talking in recently, but instead they were actually boxes of paintable figures some toy companies had sent me!
After that it was suddenly dinnertime, and I was eating turkey and some kind of muffin, and I think something else that I can't remember. My dad came up to me and gave me a bunch of pork or something so I was eating that too, and I was worried that I was going to eat too much.
Yeah. People like to find someone whose "less on the scale of worth" and shoot off their sharpened arrows at them and condemn them. They choose to do so with people who've committed crimes because society views criminals and "excons" as 4th class citizens and the large majority of people condemn them too, so the person feels it's free game and fresh meat.OMM: People who trash criminals on Facebook (and especially those who will go to their Facebook page and harass them) and say awful, dehumanizing things about them are no better than the criminals themselves, and are, I would argue, the scum of the earth moreso than what they say the criminals are.

Self righteousness at it's finest.
The ironic thing is that more of these people who've committed crimes will find Jesus and be saved over those who condemn them. Jesus came to save sinners, not the righteous - and many people regret what they've done in jail, want to go home and seek forgivenese from God. They are able to recognize their sins more clearly than the unmerciful, hate filled, self righteous mob. Blessed are the merciful for they will recieve mercy.
