    Sure it happens every day .....,profiting from death is everywhere.e.g. casket makers, funeral homes, all profit from death each day. So do cemeteries,,makers of headstones, gravestones and grave markers ..et al....it is happening everywhere ..just look around ..



    I could excuse your post if it was in a vacuum by itself. Given the context of the thread though, it seems pretty ignorant.

    Let's go with your examples though and put them into the context of this thread. The very thread you started.

    Would you be ok if the funeral director was directly involved with the death of a person, and then not only advertised the funeral, while charging admission, but also celebrated the death of that person on a website?

    If you're cool with people profiting off of deaths They're directly involved in, just say so.

    Maybe you can Bowl can come up with some business that celebrates the deaths of people? You could donate some of the proceeds to fighting the Black Lives Matter movement and keeping Hillary out of office (Hell I'll even give you a pat on the back for fighting that cause).

    Ktrain,this was your question :What about you Slim? Are you ok with profiting off the death of others?

    Easy to comprehend ..I answered the ''Q'' you asked

    The problem is not in my inability to comprehend,,it's plainly in your inability to frame the question correctly..

    By the way,, I see you are starting to unravel and call names ..most liberals do when they get dithered..

    I use the term gun loosely... it is a Kel Tec... the lowest of low end pistols a few dollars can buy.
    We are in rare accord on this issue.

    Just because you can do something does not mean you should.  A guy could legally smear feces all over his face right before a job interview.  That would be ill-advised unless he is trying to become a rodeo clown.

    However, it is certainly preferable to sell the gun than to use it in the commision of a crime.

    You're correct, I wasn't specific enough. I gave you way too much credit thinking you are intelligent enough to answer that question without acting like child. My fault for that. I'll try not not to give your intelligence that much credit in the future (handshake).

    It was wrong of me to think you could answer that question within the context of the thread, especially since you started the thread. My fault for that one.

    I didn't call you any names. I didn't call you a Nazi. You just choose to interpret it that way. Considering you started the thread, your responses to questions directed at you have been ignorant.

    The irony is that you whine about name calling yet refer to me as a liberal in the same post. Now you could say that you're just associating me with group, except that you have thrown the term "liberal" around the forum in a derogatory manner for years.

    Like I previously stated though, I must be the worst liberal ever. Pro second amendment and anti minimum wage increase. I don't support HRC or Bernie and I never voted for BHO. Guess I shouldn't hold my breathe on the DNC invite huh? But you just keep claiming everyone's a liberal because they don't agree with every little thing you say. I'm sure that gets you far in life.

    Do you condone George Zimmerman, or anyone else, profiting off the death of another human being, where they directly contributed to the death of that person?

    I apologize if that's too vague or not specific enough. I realize things are getting more difficult for you at this advanced age.

    You're correct, I wasn't specific enough. I gave you way too much credit thinking you are intelligent enough to answer that question without acting like child. My fault for that. I'll try not not to give your intelligence that much credit in the future (handshake).

    It was wrong of me to think you could answer that question within the context of the thread, especially since you started the thread. My fault for that one.

    I didn't call you any names. I didn't call you a Nazi. You just choose to interpret it that way. Considering you started the thread, your responses to questions directed at you have been ignorant.

    The irony is that you whine about name calling yet refer to me as a liberal in the same post. Now you could say that you're just associating me with group, except that you have thrown the term "liberal" around the forum in a derogatory manner for years.

    Like I previously stated though, I must be the worst liberal ever. Pro second amendment and anti minimum wage increase. I don't support HRC or Bernie and I never voted for BHO. Guess I shouldn't hold my breathe on the DNC invite huh? But you just keep claiming everyone's a liberal because they don't agree with every little thing you say. I'm sure that gets you far in life.

    Do you condone George Zimmerman, or anyone else, profiting off the death of another human being, where they directly contributed to the death of that person?

    I apologize if that's too vague or not specific enough. I realize things are getting more difficult for you at this advanced age.

    Slim,

    Do you always revert to calling someone a "liberal" when you're asked a question you don't want to answer or put in an uncomfortable spot?

    Is that a defense mechanism for you?

    When you compared Nazis and Zimmerman in the same sentence you seemed pretty desperate to make your point.

    Well let's see: The Nazi's profited off of deaths they directly contributed to. George Zimmerman is attempting to profit off of a death he directly contributed too. Doesn't seem too desperate to me.

    Help me out here 165, what sentence are you referring to again?

    Pretty simple question. Yes or no?

    Perhaps you should take a deep breath, gather your composure, and then answer.

    WTF Ktrain?

    So nobody in the Nazi party was ever punished for war crimes or murdering the person?

    I hope you aren't trying to say that because it took time to topple the regime that it was condoned. 

    If dl36 was an honest man he'd say you've gone over the deep end.

    Bowl,

    In Germany, back then, it was justifiable homicide. The Nazi's were able to profit off of it.

    You should be ok with it right?

    But I'm guessing you're not?

    I could excuse your post if it was in a vacuum by itself. Given the context of the thread though, it seems pretty ignorant.

    Let's go with your examples though and put them into the context of this thread. The very thread you started.

    Would you be ok if the funeral director was directly involved with the death of a person, and then not only advertised the funeral, while charging admission, but also celebrated the death of that person on a website?

    If you're cool with people profiting off of deaths They're directly involved in, just say so.

    Maybe you can Bowl can come up with some business that celebrates the deaths of people? You could donate some of the proceeds to fighting the Black Lives Matter movement and keeping Hillary out of office (Hell I'll even give you a pat on the back for fighting that cause).


    That line of thinking is very intellectually dishonest. Thats like saying if you're for abortions then you don't mind babies getting killed.

    Bowl,

    That's interesting that you bring up abortions because this whole topic got me thinking about my stance on abortion.

    I've always been pro choice, I still am. But I'm definitely not in favor of a baby being aborted in the final week or even trimester.

    I have to say, I'm. It quite sure when the cutoff should be.

    I'm not quite sure I can accurately define when life begins.

    I've also being trying to think of any scenario where it would be morally ok for a person to profit off the death of another person, where the first person played a direct role in the death of the second person. I can't think of any.

    Just substitute Zimmerman in for the funeral director and it parallels. Zimmerman was directly involved in the death and now he's trying to profit from that very death. He's also doing it in a very public fashion.

    Slim,

    An obsession is possible. Although I don't believe I've mentioned it in any other thread. I could be wrong about that.

    Either way, it's still no where near your obsession with liberals. You literally call everyone who doesn't agree with you on a topic a liberal.

    What's really scary is that I've actually agreed with you on a few things in the past....and you still call me a liberal!

    it's getting scary Slim. I fear for your mental health.

    I wish you the best Slim. (Handshake)

    I'll give you that one if it helps you to sleep better. You want to talk about reaching though.....

    You're way more sensitive than I thought. Good luck with that.

    I thought there was a decent chance you were a grandpa though. Especially with the skippy comment. Seem like something a grandpa or an old man would say.

    I'm sorry I hurt your feelings Slim. I'll let you have your safe space now.

    You saying that I condone Nazis profiting off of the murders of Jewish people is every bit as intellectualy dishonest because I see every one of those as murders. The only people that see those killings as justifiable are Nazis themselves.

    Bowl,

    I'm pro choice. Not pro abortion. I believe abortion should be avoided as much as possible. But there are instances, such as the mothers health, were I can see why an abortion would be necessary. I also don't think women who are victims of rape, and be one prego oats a result of that rape, should be forced to carry the child to term. It should be at the mothers discretion. Back to the thread though.

    I thought I just asked you if you condoned the Nazi's profiting off the deaths of the Jewish people? Did I actually say that you did? If so, I apologize for the accusation. I sincerely do. I thought I just asked.

    I bring it up because the Germans were using justifiable homicide at the time. Same as Zimmerman.

    I don't think Zimmerman's homicide was justifiable but the law in Florida does. I don't think the Nazi's homicides were justifiable either, but the law in Germany at the time did.

    I'm just want to know why you're ok with one profiting and not the other? Both were justifiable homicides under the law at the time the acts were committed. Yet you defend the actions of one and not the other.
