[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 590764, member: 9859"] I just want to share these thoughts. It's disappointing in the responses of some in regards to the death of Senator Kennedy. Many times we see everyone offer prayers up and sympathy for people they don't even know, at that time of need. I usually never reply but prefer to personally say the prayer rather than type it. [SIZE=2]If you must judge this man, then judge him on the whole of his works and not just one day. Forgive him his sins, excuse his faults, recognize the good he did with his opportunities of redemption resulting from the Chappaqudick accident, and lets not ignore the memory of a considerate and dedicated man who spent nearly half a century serving his country. He was a good citizen, a good American. [/SIZE] The intent of this thread was to tar the persona of Ted Kennedy, and absolutely no respect was going to be given to the achievements concerning this man, and his life's work to public service unless others spoke up. Couldn't even wait for the dirt to be thrown on his casket. If no compassion and restraint is possible for just a few days after his death, well then those need to do some self evaluation and maybe consider setting down that bible since some can't follow the scriptures. Again, my thoughts are not only about respecting the Senator, but it's about respecting members of this board. So there you go. Blast away today. [/QUOTE]
