Peter,

That's a very charitable response and I commend you for it. Let me ask if you delivered the same message to others who were attacked in similar situations, i.e., when people were called pos, scum bags, crims, thieves, etc., etc., by those who are now feeling the same type of heat?

Thank you.

peter,

Everyone has their own personal limit...

It's the "unethical scumbag behavior rationalization limit"

How many times do you have to buy the:

~ "really I'm the poor victim" story or;
~ "look I ripped the money off, but it was the mean prosecutor who had it out for me" story or;
~ "Feel sorry for me for ripping the money off cause now I gotta go to jail" story or;
~ "I can't believe they kick me when I'm down story"

Before you actually voice your disgust with this kind of behavior.

I'll tell you when the cork popped for me...

When I heard the "I can't believe you accuse me of miss-handling charity donations when I was really in Macedonia being a super freaking hero - but don't make me tell you what I did with the donated money" story...

Like I said before - some people can watch a mugging and do nothing. When I see something that stinks this bad, it's time to say "nuff's enough - time to strap on my sak and stand up for what is right and wrong"...
