Why are many JWDers so adamant about keeping your thoughts to yourself?

    Open Mind: "When the student is ready the teacher will appear." Awesome. I'm going to remember that one. So true.

    Some can do more damage invisible. Don't you think?

    OK, so I didn't know this thread was about me as I don't come on JWD too much anymore... Mostly I feel like I'm OK now and don't have the need to vent. Look guys, I didn't come out and beat anyone's ass over my thoughts, I stated them calmly at first, and crescendoed at the end.

    I started using basic logic, especially with my dad who's a PO, but I could see I was getting nowhere and decided to do something more drastic. Many of you do nothing, that's what I fault; doing something at your own pace, I do not fault. being calm, throwing out "food at the proper time" I do not fault, but coming on this site and witching about how you've been treated and acting like a child because you're too damn afraid to make a stand for what you think, I find fault with that. And before any of you fly off to fairyland and say things like I don't have the right to tell you how to feel, just realize that I already know that, but it still makes me think you're a coward. Sorry, but that's my damn opinion.

    When I first discovered it's all crap, I went slowly, hell I wasn't too sure myself I was right, after all, everyone else thought I was wrong... but the evidence became overwhelming. I began to throw out my thoughts to my friends and listening at first. It was 19 years ago and there was no internet chat rooms or I'd of been here like many of you. I refined my argument over the years, but I was never quiet... just not as direct... and I'm not saying all of you should be direct, but all of you should speak your minds with tact, and at freaking least do something.

    But the thing that makes me laugh the hardest is reading posts like Parakeet's... that when I know I've touched a nerve, when you guys get miffed and start squawking, then I know your own consciences hurt because of your fear. Get with the program guys and then that anger will cease.

    Hello, Animal Control? There's a dawg in the neighborhood that won't stop barking. Barks at birds and other sensible creatures, but mostly barks at nothing at all. I think he does it just to annoy the neighborhood. You'll talk to his owner tomorrow? Thanks.
