Maybe you saw this story about the 78 yr. old man in Hartford, Conn. who was the victim of a hit and run.It was disturbing, to say the least. More story and video at: http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/06/05/ignored.hitrun.ap/index.html#cnnSTCVideo

  2. Madeline Burke says There are many differences among us people on this planet, but we better start helping each other out, our basic humanity not only depends on it, but demands it. Especially now.. On a lighter note, My grandfather said many times: " It's a GOOD thing that people like different things...or else everybody would be after your grandmother!"

  3. waydutch says Makes me wonder how many of those people if asked if they were religious at all, would answer yes?

  5. Mike the Knife says It's been so long since I heard this. I actually may have been a child. It's a little anachronistic in a places ("coloreds"), but it's poisonously apt and relevant, even now, so many years later.

  6. Mike the Knife says I was referring to Ochs' song, of course.

  7. TylerDurden says Re-cock-ulous -> as an ex-paramedic, at least in Maryland, it is a crime to walk past something like this where someone was hurt and needed help if you have just a CPR card -> It is our Moral duty to help in a situation like this -> "Makes me wonder how many of those people if asked if they were religious at all, would answer yes?" Waydutch hit the nail on the head -> 90% of those people, and probably the person driving the hit-n-run car would consider themselves religious, not the religion should have anything to do with it, if you see someone hurt like that, and it's not going to compromise your safety, you need to get in there and help -> I bet you if it was a dog that got hit, everyone would have helped... pisses me off, offender should have to endure what he put that guy through, nail him with a toyota carolla, then make him lay there for 2 minutes before anyone did anything -> no, better yet, make him wait until a cop drives by like this guy had to wait for -> by the way -> MOG sucks
