12. Why would he want to sue them? Is that all that motivates people
Edited on Fri Jan-14-11 08:25 PM by sabrina 1
in this country? How about the far more valuable commodity, especially since it is so rare, of simply human kindness? When did all this 'suing' for everything begin? I swear, I think it has totally dehumanized this country with people holding back from just doing what is right because 'god forbid' there might be some way to heap even more misery on a couple of human beings who probably don't have much to begin with and whose lives are totally destroyed right now.

Good for him. He sounds like a rare person in today's 'me, me, me and what can I get for me' society.

And before anyone tells me I don't know what I'm talking about, I've been in such a situation, where I lost the most precious person in the world to me, and I wanted no revenge, or money. None of that brings back the person and only hardens the heart and blocks the real emotions that people need to feel in order to truly heal. I requested that the person who took away the life of our loved one, not be prosecuted. And I do not regret it for one minute. I've watched people eat themselves up seeking revenge and money and I do not envy them at all.
