A student at Georgetown University wrote in an op-ed piece that he was 'Not at all' shocked that a recent mugging he suffered at gunpoint took place.

Senior Oliver Friedfeld said in his piece,'I Was Mugged, And I Understand Why,'that he questioned his own ability to criticize his attackers,citing his 'perch of privilege.'

Time for liberal badges ... ‘I’m unarmed and carry cash for muggers; no guns in my house or car’

Oliver Olivia Friedfeld obviously lacks testicles.

I said: what an arrogant insulting statement you have made. Assuming poor people are not moral people. Assuming that one cannot have integrity or honor in poverty.

Thank you for your example of wisdom this morning.

Was reading the following the past few days:

Luk 17:1 One day Jesus said to His disciples, “There will always be temptations to sin, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
Luk 17:2 It would be better to be thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around your neck than to cause one of these little ones to fall into sin.
Luk 17:3 So watch yourselves! “If another believer sins, rebuke that person; then if there is repentance, forgive.

Correct me if I am wrong in my interpretation. Many of us can say we don’t tempt people. We can say I don’t steal so I didn’t tempt anyone by what I did so I’m good, I don’t deserve the millstone.

BUT, if you go beyond the easy interpretation, it seems to be saying “not correcting” someone is the SAME as tempting. That takes a little more thinking and I will have to admit, I deserve several millstones. It takes time, effort and “risk of offending” to correct someone. If you love someone, you will speak the truth....................

But it does reference only to believers so I will play that card. But then it leads me to Proverbs:

Always correct a fool......................
Never correct a fool........................

Guess I will have to go to the corner and think a little.

There is another example of who will be in the first die off when the SHTF.

I figure it one of two ways: either the author got mugged by (1) a fellow filled with righteous indignation at the inequities of distribution of wealth and the manifestations of White Privilege and patriarchal heteronormativity, or (2) it was a dirtbag who wanted his phone to sell for drugs. Could go either way. I got a sawbuck on (2).

Good afternoon. I hope you are doing well.

Methinks Friedfeld pissed in his pants. Sounds like Friedfeld is pajama boy. Couldn’t save his wife or girlfriend even if he had the opportunity.
