You would ignore somebody in an emergency over petty-ass bull****
and
help
their boat sink, burn or crash? Really?


Ya, here again we have an example of the tolerance and humanity of
liberalism.

If you see a cat about to pounce on a bird, do you go out of your way to
stop the event?


Firstly, I don't equate human life with animal life as you have done by
your asking this assine question.

"assine" ???


Secondly, I take no pleasure in the imminent death or suffering of
another human being (or animal), as it appears you do, simply because
they have in done nothing more than **** me off with noise.

Turn this around. Do you personally suffer if you're watching a nature show
on TV which shows lions eating gazelle, or owls & hawks eating rodents?


You're a selfish and tightly wound individual, Douggie. Keep it up and
you'll certainly cross the line from using the law for your vengeance to
vigilante.

Turn this around: Your neighbor's driveway is right next to your bedroom
window. It's winter. His muffler goes bad. He goes to work 3 hours before
you need to wake up, and likes to warm up his car for 20 minutes. So,
instead of waking up at 6:30, your normal time, his noise is waking you up
at 3:30. You figure most people might not find the time to get their muffler
fixed right away, so you let it go for a week, maybe two. You ask him
politely when he's getting it fixed, because you're getting sleep deprived.
He says "Hey...maybe next week. Sounds cool, though, eh?"

Another month goes by. Somehow, the cops haven't ticketed him yet. You ask
him again when he's getting it fixed. He says "That's none of your damned
business. Kiss my ass".

What do you do? By "you", I mean YOU PERSONALLY, not "people in general".

Whatever he does I am sure that it wouldn't involve watching his neighbor and
his family burn helplessly (and add to the fire) in the event of a house fire
you sick ****.

Get this, you are not the only person who has had irritating neighbors that
cross the lines of civility and decency. Just about all of us has suffered
from this at one time or another. Such is the nature of life and of humans.

However, most of us being human ourselves have occasionally (not always
knowingly) trespassed on others. It works two ways.

I sincerely doubt that you are perfect Doug (although it appears that you
fancy yourself to be).

And even if you are perfect in these regards (respecting neighborhood
covenants, common sense etc.) then it doesn't give you carte'blanche
to be some kind of vigilante monster.

Because then Doug, you lose your title to being "human". You become
no better than being an animal.

Being anal-retentive and relentless in expecting others to live up to your
expectations and time tables is not the answer.

Learn to roll with the flow and lighten up a little. Things have a way
of resolving themselves on their own.

And next time buy a ****ing house out in the country smack-dab
in the middle of some acreage will ya? What in the hell is somebody
of your disposition doing living in a house in the burbs with their
bedroom window overlooking the neighbors driveway?

Sheesh
