Sorry but people have a right to an opinion that’s contrary to yours.

God Bless our Australian friends, loyal and magnanimous.

No nation has been blessed with a better ally than has the US with Australia.

Obviously this thing is outfitted nicely and they would tow it. Mast replacement shouldn’t be a big deal.

Deflection.

You're saying that people have to agree with you?

I can no longer stomach the vitriol spewed forth by some of you folks. Conservatives? Not so much, here.

Adolescents are the first to try to discredit other adolescents. There is a whelter of children on these threads trying to be tough by denigrating others.

Another one. Those who don’t share your opinions are juvenile?

Obviously, whatever I’m saying, you’re not going to get so I’m going to leave it with you guys. I need some fresh air. Buh bye.

You can leave but it doesn’t change that others have a right to an opinion that disagrees with yours.

“”WHORE-AL-DO had a good piece on O’riley last night.
The parents should be charged with child abuse.
The vessel was in such bad shape there was no way it could make it. They knew this and sent her anyway. . . . .Shame on them.””

Well, isn’t that precious? A GOOD piece on O’Reilly? You have to be kidding. Child abuse? How many kids and wives has that piece of garbage had? Love ‘em and leave ‘em.
You forgot to state that he also said that the father of Abby is a kook - he homeschooled seven children! AND that Abby left on that trip to get away from her father. I guess with seven children, Geraldo figures they sent her on her way just to get rid of her.

He has no idea what shape her boat was in when she left. He did have to tell everyone that he’d sailed around the world on a boat 2x the size of Abby’s but he had 4-6 crew on board. He couldn’t handle it solo?

Some day he’ll wake up to the fact that everything in life doesn’t revolve around him.

Been reading on line........she chose that route to avoid pirates.

I am a typical ‘jewish mother’ and have come to realize that you can encourage them or stand in their way.

Encouraging dreams is a better way of life for them.

Hopefully she won’t be preyed upon by the crew.

Excuse me? That's your first thought? Seriously?

Seriously chill out. Of course she cannot stay on her boat.

To all those who do not recognize the courage and spirit of this young lady and her family, you should be ashamed

The entirely predictable results of this venture speak conclusively to its wisdom.

I remember wandering off with a Frenchman while we were on a fishing trip in Canada. I was about her age.

Pretty soon I heard my father calling me...and all of a sudden he was in front of us....with his hand on his Bowie knife....the first time I had ever seen the knife on him when we weren't in the boat.

Dad never said a word to me as we trekked back to the cabin..but I didn't wander again....and I didn't forget...and 50 years have passed.

WOW! What a novel idea. How did I survive 65 years?
You just have all the ideas and answers. Maybe you can move to DC. . . .
