Yes, most of them do care about the communities they police, even though they see a lot of people at their worst.

Generally Speaking Do You Support The Police?
by minimus ini know bad cops exist in many cities.
i know some cops who aren’t “bad” but do have an attitude.
however, i prefer to have law and order as opposed to chaos.

I can understand somewhat. When I had surgery I got a card from a witness I haven’t heard from in almost 20 years. (At least I really did have something going on)
The thought was nice but that whole life is a chapter I have closed and will not allow it to be reopened no matter how well intentioned someone is. I didn’t respond at all because a Witness has nothing to offer by allowing them into my life.
You do what feels right to you.

Dealing With Smelly People
by minimus ini can never understand why some people simply stink.they don’t smell themselves??
i knew of certain jws that had to be counseled many times because they refused to regularly bathe, wash their hair or use deodorant.
and it’s not just witnesses.

For my job I travel a lot. There was a flight once with a man so smelly the passengers were all putting peppermint oil under their nose to make the stench bearable. It was the most awful flight experience. He was a white guy with dreadlocks and apparently a habit of not bathing.
As far as at the KH I think most of the problem came from people not dry cleaning their clothes often enough. I used to just wash my dry clean only clothes on hand wash with Woolite.

As A Former JW Are You Patriotic At All?
by minimus injehovah’s witnesses were drilled with the idea that all governments are from satan and that we should have nothing to do with anything involving support of the government, voting, or political talk for one party or another.. now that you are out, is patriotism important to you?
is voting important to you?
are you supportive of your country?.

Yes - I am so thankful to live in the USA where I have every right, every freedom, every possibility as person could have.
To me it’s not about politics or any of that stuff, it’s about being thankful for my freedom.

Repercussions over Whiskygate?
by eyeslice2 inanyone any idea if there have been any repercussions over whiskygate and if anthony morris was ushered into the backroom after a meeting?
i am pretty sure if this had been a member of the r&f and the video was all over the internet, something would have been said about being careful not to bring jah's organization into disrepute.
i am sure the local elders in the congregation he is assigned to wouldn't have the balls to do it and there would have to be a mole pretty high up to find out if the gb got involved.. we can but speculate i guess..

They won’t even hold pedophiles accountable and you think they are going to do something about buying whiskey?
Also, he is at a level that nothing would ever happen to him anyway, to think otherwise is delusional.

Nobody who is an ethical hunter shoots a deer 5 times and doesn’t kill it. Then to not track it and finish what you started is disgusting.
