You are exactly right. We were in study couple nights ago and a man that is a teacher at the local Jr Hi, was telling us of a special meeting the teachers and principal had on one young man. Seems this boys language came right from the gutter, and they were having to meet to vote to allow this boy to stay in school even though his language was atrocious. Seems when they tryed to talk to the PARENTS they found out WHY the boy spoke as he did, as the parents were the same, and told the school it was no business of theirs how the boy spoke and cussing was just part of their lifestyle. There was no doubt in their minds(school folks), that the boy had NO clue that his language was offensive. The man asked why did someone not just tell the boy that it was wrong and teach him, but that did not seem to be an option?? Such is the world we live in. dcf

Hal my previous post was for you also. This man that shot at us says the Jews made him do it, they keep him from keeping a job, they cause his drug addiction etc... There is no personal responsibility at all. That is my conclusion as to what makes a person cross that line. They deserve it because of what they did to me. Alan Dershowitz is a brilliant Attorney and he said the determination of guilt based on abuse is a sad hour in America. He also said the guilt is established the sentencing is what should be varied by the circumstance. He sees the lack of responsibility as a major problem for it removes the person from the consequence as well. Nancy
