When would you board someone else's boat??

A previous message mentioned a vanishing cat. That seemed OK with
you.
So,
what difference does it make HOW a pet vanishes, whether it's
whisked
away
by animal control to place where it will likely be euthanized
eventually,
or
if it's flattened by a car? Gone is gone.
The difference is intent, and whether or not the action was
sanctioned
by the law.
Dave
That would not change how the family felt about losing the pet. Gone
is
gone.
Ok, you like using hypothetical examples, so here's one. Would you
feel differently knowing that a loved one was killed in a car
accident, or by some gang banger looking to score some dope?
Dave
Identical. Gone is gone.
So you would not feel the slightest bit more resentment toward someone
who was responsible for deliberately causing that loved one's death
over a purely accidental scenario where no one was responsible?
Dave
Most car accidents are not accidents. I'd feel the same way toward both
people.
