I’d really like to see a picture of pistolpete. And I don’t have a gun, but I do support my right to have one. I live in a “safe” neighborhood, and don’t place myself in dangerous places late at night. Once, I cashed my paycheck, went to Venture to buy underwear for my husband. I noticed a young man in a hoodie watching me take the cash out of my purse to pay for my items. When I walked out of the store, he walked out after me. I turned right around and walked back into the store. Security walked me to my car, and I was fine. I think this kid wanted to grab my purse. But I was aware, as you need to be when you are out and about.

42What’s Your View On Self Defense?
by minimus inif someone comes to you with a knife or a gun, would you defend yourself if you could?
if someone tried to beat you up , would you physically engage, run away or just try to talk the person out of beating you up or robbing you?
if you did have a gun to defend yourself would you shoot to kill or would you simply aim for the ankle to incapacitate the person?

True story: woman at our hall with 5 kids and unbelieving husband, tells how she heard a noise in her baby’s room, and goes in to check on him. He was sleeping, but she claims that the smurfs on the curtains in the room, came off the drapes, and were dancing in a circle around the crib. She burned those smurf curtains. Lol

DPA Blood ASAP
by manicmama ini am in need of the current copy of the newest dpa blood card as some of the jw's in my mothers congregation are asking about if she signed the latest copy after she passed today.
i am curious as to why they are asking about this specifically and not offering condolences on the loss of my mother.
there has been some shady interactions leading to my mother requesting me to talk to certain elders to request that certain people not interact with her further.

True, but many parents don’t care if the kids do well, or finish their homework, etc. it starts with parents.

Simon, I blame parents more than teachers. Shitty parents who set bad examples teach these kids the wrong way to live, expecting handouts and govt giveaways.

Covid Virus and serving where the need is greater
by eyeslice ini get the impression that many of those serving where 'the need is greater' have had to return to their home countries due to the current covid pandemic.. just over a year back the society was pushing people to go to places like india; not the easiest places to get to grips with at the best of times.
now i see that the covid pandemic is pretty much out of control in india.
it seems to me that 'needs greaters' were the watchtowers way of getting missionaries on the cheap.

I think most of these “need greater” are younger folks looking for adventure. On another thread, I recall this topic talking about people going to mostly nice places, like Hawaii or Caribbean islands, never some godforsaken hellhole.

The choice of being alone has never been clearer.
by pistolpete insomething i've noticed is that marriage was the thing for those born before 2010. but today's culture of divorce laws slanted to favor women has forced men to think carefully before signing the marriage certificate.
most of my friends have no intentions of getting married.
all of them have gotten vasectomies, so there is no chance of being blamed for a pregnancy.

Clap for the Carers (or Don't it's Forbidden)
by Slidin Fast inso, in the uk, during the early stages of covid there was a groundswell of appreciation for the nhs for their front-line sacrifice.
this was crystallised into a regular clapping/whistling/noise making session every thursday at 8pm.. "harmless" you would have thought, "a gesture of appreciation", "what could possibly be wrong with joining in on that innocent activity?".
well, the co during his recent rounds had a different view.

Someone still in, but PIMO, should ask the CO if Jehovah will kill me at Armageddon if I clap.
