Don’t do meth

I didn’t see the damage being done. It was already done when I went outside. I have a completely clean conscience because I did exactly that. I made damn sure he didn’t hurt any innocent bystanders. If anyone would have gotten hurt, it would have been him or I or both. But I assure you I was not allowing anyone else to be in danger. The man went to jail, no one got hurt and my truck is fixed. Win, win, win.

 

No doubt. I was talking to the guy who I quoted. Regardless it had good outcome. No one was hurt and the truck was repaired. That douchebag will get his... just sucks you had to be caught in the middle

 

Court for him is July 10. I’ll let y’all know what he gets.

 

Im sorry to hear about your truck man, but it can be fixed, that man however is already in a world of hurt and suffering before he even met your truck and is deserving of our compassion to rehabilitate himself, not more retribution and suffering.

Thats not gonna help you, him or your truck, just perpetuates more suffering for everyone involved dude.

 

Wow. Maybe he’ll get a nice hug. I think he needs his ass kicked...but that’s just me.

 

Maybe you can show up on the court date to give the guy a hug, and let him know you’re there to support him. In fact I’ll bet he will want you to support his drug habit by smuggling some contraband into the jail. Let me know how that plays out if you show up

 

Compassion is not always about giving someone a hug or feeding their drug habit, and neither is giving them a beat down either. Compassion is acting humanely to remove another's cycle of suffering, including one's own, just sayin bro...

If the guy was running around like op says a chp holder would have the right to protect everybody this guy could have attacked.

 

No one is held accountable for their own actions and behaviors.

There’s your problem. Just sayin bro.

 

Compassion isn’t what they are looking for. In fact I doubt being compassionate helps less than 3% of them recover. They are addicts. They want that high. Why do you think most can’t get the help they need until they hit rock bottom, and get treatment or for it to work until they realize they need to do it on their own terms/if ever. Only thing they want you to be compassionate about is helping them get their high, or leaving them alone. They are in a world of their own in a completely different perspective. I’m not saying you shouldn’t have feelings for people, especially family or friends who may be in that situation. I have/had family and friends in that situation. Some have had plenty of help, multiple times and chances. Usually the most effective way, if any, is tough love

 

The wisdom I speak is not mine, but is as old as time itself and applies to all of us, accept it or accept not. Good luck.

 

Well said.

 

I've got a box 10 gauge buck shot to donate to this guy

 

My Dad always said the cops are there to protect you from people like me. You should just throw yourself behind those jail bars and hope they protect you from me.

 

Don't you bring logic into 3rd gen dammit DD!

 

That's the spirit!

You have to keep in mind diseases that you can contact while going hand to hand with a street straggler.
