Completed my entry. I will preface it by saying that I've only watched one basketball game this entire season and it was a Maryland game.

I guess it would be parts of these two statements, which you later explain, which is fine. What DC wrote earlier regarding the first of those, if I remember correctly, is problem the same comment/question that I would have made. It's why I said it isn't a drinker vs. non-drinker issue for me. But, like I said, you've explained your point of view in further detail after that. It was the comment along the lines I can judge because I haven't done it is what got me.

BallT, I think you have one person saying that and I think I quoted him below. I disagree with him. The rest of the people are saying that people should get a second chance. It has nothing to do with drinkers versus non-drinkers. The attitude of "I'm better than you because I never drink so I'm free to judge people that do" is arrogant and ignorant. The attitude of "this person deserves to suffer forever and then burn in Hell for it" is holier-than-thou. If someone wants to be mad because they feel the time served was too light. Fine. If they want to say that the punishment did not fit the crime, fine. But to sit in your room and pass out judgment against anyone else who's ever made a mistake makes me sick.

That would be cool, but this: "one of my co-workers has a friend whose son works for the Ravens." kind of negates the source for me. Sorta like a six degrees thing, I guess.

I would ask God to help me forgive that person. There are certain things that I believe, that for me, does not matter if I am the victim of it or not. Some of those things include forgiveness and allowing a person who has made a mistake to have a second chance. That's just my belief. Read my first few posts in this thread. I'm consistent in that. Now, if you want to talk about second and third chances, we can. Do I expect everyone to agree with my opinion? No. Do I have the right to my opinion? Yes. Is anyone who disagrees with me worthless? No. Does my point of view make me better than someone else? No. Do I respect someone else's right to their opinion? Of course. But what I won't accept is this all or nothing attitude of intolerance for another person's point of view. To do that is total arrogance and wholly shortsighted. I think it is easier to hate a person and hope that someone fails and lives a miserable life and should be continually punished because of one act. It is much harder to accept a person's faults, shortcomings, mistakes and misdeeds and forgive them for it. And yet, people do that. If someone were to hold any one of your mistakes against you for the rest of your life, how can you be expected to learn from incident, make yourself a better person and educate other people about what you did? Should no one have that opportunity? I stole a tube of lip gloss. That makes me a bona fide thief, apparently. I can never learn from my actions. I've had friends killed in similar accidents, through their own fault or no fault of their own. Should I carry around the anger, hurt and hate of the incident all of my life? Sorry, I simply can't do that. What I can do is hope and pray that all those involved find the spiritual healing that they need to make it through the situation, learn from it and become better people. I can't and won't throw the baby out with the bathwater and I won't throw out the bushel because one apple is spoiled. Those beliefs don't make me any better or any worse than anyone else. Although some people here would have you believe otherwise.

I'm just going to ignore you from now on because obviously that stick up your butt has protruded your brain. Your track record of arrogance and ignorance is astounding, and I feel sorry for you.
