I find to my amazement that not matter how many people saw the same thing the story is never the same. Eye witness account is the most terrifyingly poor evidence any investigator can find. Thank you personal experience and Law&Order.
I ask you this, anyone who reads this; Why do we lie, hurt, cheat, steal, manipulate and vex our fellow man? Who are we to determine they deserve it? You're not judge, jury and executioner and neither am i. Now I'm not saying don't defend yourself, self defense is not a crime against law or the natural order of the world, however don't start shit. There's no need.
And don't be hateful. It actually makes you look a lot worse when there's needless he said she said second grade name calling and blame gaming going on after the fact. It's over, build a bridge and get over it.
I'm not (for once) being judgmental. I'm tired of people I care about having hurt feelings over lies and inflamed egos. Some of the inflamed egos may come from my friends as well which is why I'm posting this to everyone as advice. Not a judgment, not calling any one out, no challenge or gripe, but a plea.
Please you guys, think about the long term rammifications of your actions. Kharma, the Law of Threefold, Divine Retribution whatever you want to label it does exist and only you can be accountable for your actions. Stop to think next time you go to lie, or hit someone at a concert, or back talk your mother, or curse in front of kittens. I don't care just fucking think before you act and ask yourself; Why am I being an asshole? What gives me the right to do this to someone else?
I garuntee you'll be a better person, have better kharma, less dramah and more friends for it. Basically you'll be happier and the world will be a better place.
I know there's more people on your friends list than just me. Please, forward this to everyone, or even just to the people you think need to read it.
