I made an opinion based off the observations I've been given ; because I cannot be there to whitness or take matters in my own hands, I must rely on the words of others. Words that come from one person who claims to speak for the good of "my family" and yet rants and raves to people that cannot make a difference about it. My comment to you, Devon, was strictly my opinion and only mine. Just as you have your firm founding opinion.
Do not think for a MINUTE that I think you are lying or intentionally blowing things out of context. Do not think for another MINUTE that I do not trust or believe you. I suspect that Jerry might, in fact, be an asshole - but I've got nothing to make that my final stance.
Try and put yourself in my position, ladies and gentlemen. My family is apparently in danger based off the words of one person and one person alone. Words that may very well be corrupted by her personal opinion of the matters. I hear none of these words by anyone else, anyone else that would otherwise be victimized to the harsh extent that Devon claims is occuring. I've heard nothing. I've seen nothing. All evidence that suggests so, outside of Devon's experiences, vanishes. I try to be nice and say I want Rico on it, but that's not good enough. I'm the badguy because I want more information before I decide to ruin my mother's life by stateing these claims I have nothing to back with. SO I try the direct approach, I come all out (as conflict therapy dictates for a happy resolution), and I get bashed, sworn at and branded as a fuck face. My very reputation is ruined among these people because I wanted to express my opinion when I was condemned for it, all because of one post about the reality of the situation (from my stance, and not the stance of some person peeking in at the matters of my family).
Isn't it funny how people can blow things out of proportion?
