Your post has helped noone. There's one brief allusion to a moral code that you live up to, and then you go and call everybody "incredibly selfish". Seems to me that casting derogitory stereotypical remarks would not be part of anybodys moral code.
Is this how you clear your conscience? Is this what makes you feel better?
No it's not a personal attack on you, try not to be so over sensitive. It was in response to the article contained in the web site you 'recomended'. Ie, the comment was made "don't be around when the police arrive". No personal offence intended. My question was "why not?" I then put forward some potential explanations as why this might be, and then asked for comments. What is so strange about that. Personally I would always wait for the police to arrive in order to explain my actions, as I believe it to be the right thing to do. Is that so unusual? I also hold the opinion that to 'skulk away' is the wrong thing to do and is the mark of a person who is frightened of the authorities, sometimes known as cowardice, or a guilty conscience. Why would someone have a guilty conscience if they have done the right thing? It would reasonably appear that those who would leave the scene can be considered selfish as they are concerned solely in effecting their own extraction from the incident and have no concern for what they have done. If this wasn't the case they would have stayed and faced the music. That's my opinion.
