Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'

Most people on this board vent about their jobs from time to time. When they do, they don't get offered links to job openings in other cities. They get sympathy or invocations of smiting, or practical suggestions to deal with the immediate situation.

I just saw this gentleman on the Rachel Maddow Show. Adding the the remarkableness imho is the fact that he is in his early 20s, a Junior in college, and ran toward the shooting to help.
In college, when my professor was trying to make a point about how society had changed, he asked people what they would do if they heard someone calling for help. I spoke up and said I would go see if I could help. He said I was an atavism, a throwback. He said most people would ignore it or call the police.
I've always hoped he was wrong. At least in this case he was.
If someone were just shouting or yelling, no, I probably wouldn't go see what it was at first.
Extended screaming? More likely.
Someone shouting for help? Unless the situation was set up thus that I suspected danger, always.

Jilli, I'm glad to hear your mother is stable. The one time I met her, I thought she was absolutely wonderful, and I continue to send ~ma to her, you and your family.

Honest answer?
Because the girl's family is Catholic.
And because they can.
Phelps and his cronies are sub-human sacks of shit.
Because the girl's family is Catholic.
It's wrong for me to even say what I'm thinking right now.
WBC isn't known for their compassion or caring. Or, what Barb said.
