I in no way changed what I accused you of! Read it again. Perhaps you imagined that I claimed that you didn't tell him anything?
If you know the laws so well, then you could've simply asked the driver not to smoke, quoted the statutes, and even threatened to report him, WITHOUT ACTUALLY REPORTING HIM.
Then you could have simply asked the driver not to smoke = According to you, I did NOT ask because you are clearly stating that I SHOULD or COULD have asked him not to smoke. Who is imagining? Who should read again?
One thing I recommend is not saying/writing something online that you wouldn't say to someone's face. The stuff about ASS etc. is a bit over the top, don't you think? I said nothing about ASS - I wrote - You ASSume and Judge rather then ask simple questions. Apparantly, you never heard of this expression. ASS+U+ME = When you ASSume, you make an ASS of U and Me. Perhaps this is only a military expression which civilians have never heard of.
Yes, you should use this forum to ask simple questions, not to criticize.
I don't know why I ever bother with anything besides basic Kunming Q and A stuff on these forums. From now on, I am going to take my own advice and just stick to replying to posts like "when does Metro close?, "How much do scooters cost?", etc. = This is clearly the best statement you have made today, I am glad you will take your own advice.
Finally, since you embarrased yourself yet again because you stated that you like this - Well I certainly enjoy embarrassing myself in public. Now you resort to threats = Seriously, you would have dental bills if you said that to a strangers face. Don't push your luck. To tell someone they would have dental bills is clearly a threat to knock their teeth out. Dont push your luck is clearly a warning and a threat. I would feel shame if I made a threat to someone I did not know. I would feel shame if I made a threat to an older and weaker person that I can easily hurt. I would feel shame if I made a threat to someone younger or weaker. I would feel shame to say that I enjoy embarrassing myself in public.
You are absolutely correct when you mentioned in another post that one should be very careful when choosing a martial arts teacher. A true Master teaches that violence is a last resort and only to be used defensively. Most importantly, a true Master will never teach a student to make threats or act as a bully. Read Sun Tzu in regards to choosing one's battles and assessing enemy strengths and weakness.
You initiated your posts directly to me for some reason. I never wrote a post asking Aaronb for his opinion or response. I did not solicit your response. I did not ask you any questions. I did not ask for your opinion. I did not ask if you thought my actions were right or wrong. I did not threaten you. I did not criticize you. I am only responding to your posts and using your own words which I cut and paste from your own posts and I am explaining the events that took place. When I make comments on this post, I do NOT direct my comments directly to someone unless they have directly contacted me first as is the case with you. Keep in Mind, when you begin a comment or post with another person's user name - then you are directing the comment specifically and directly to that ONE person. To direct a reply to a person who is asking a question is fine but when you direct criticism, sarcasm, judgement, or you want to play arm chair quaterback and replay and relive events of the past, and give advice of what SHOULD or COULD have been done, then you are opening yourself up endless possibilities. Read Teddy Roosevelt's - Man in the Arena.
I believe you have started this interchange based on one major error. That you think or assume that I am bragging or taking credit or enjoying what happened to the driver. If that is the case, then let me clarify again. I certainly did NOT know or enjoy what happened to the driver as I have explained to you many times. I had no idea what would happen to the driver. I just wrote on this post to INFORM others that the Mayors Hotline is just one method of getting positive results. No one who calls the hotline knows in advance what action they will take. The only reason I knew was because they called and wrote back to me explaining what action THEY already took.
What I find very ironic is that you sent me your first verbal attack immediately after I just finished writing about being calm, respectful, and not making personal attacks to other members of this forum.

Posted byYou ask a very good question. I was not asked either. So the question remains, Who made the Georgia guidestones? I know that in the USA, you need a work permit for everything. So who constructed this? Why is it that no one knows and there are no records? No asked but yet this policy is dictated to all.

How can you keep humanity under 1/2 billion if there are 7 billion people?
Who decides who are the 500 Million who get to live?
I guess we have to purchase a ticket like in the movie 2012.

Posted byBuddhism states that all life is suffering and that suffering stems from desire. Letting go of these desires should be one's purpose in life. Addiction is viewed as being stuck in the physical realm and life continues like a scratched record until a person can let go of these physical obstacles to freedom (nirvana - to extinguish desire). If not, you'll be back next lifetime with the same or another addiction until you get it right.
Yes, the question remains - is an addict a victim or does he have power or control over his addiction? If an addict is a victim than he can not be rehabilitated because he has no control over the addiction.
Now we venture into Nature vs Nurture. My daddy made me do it, Its in my jeans. I inherited this addiction so there is nothing I can do about it.
Meanwhile, every time you go purchase a pack of cigs, you are stealing from your own family because you are not buying food for the family but rather just cigs for me, me, me and only me. Unless, your spouse is also an addict and then you can share your cigs with her and wait until your kids are old enough so you can share your cigs with them.
