felixis99: that would cause me to wonder as well. something like that needs reported. here in ohio up in cleveland a man held 3 women captive for 5 years until a neighbor finally did something

original reports gave accounts of neighbors seeing naked women crawling on her hands and knees in the backyard....that account was quickly scuttled from news reports as were original reports of police searching the property over the years.

that entire neighborhood is to blame


That is horrific. I said in an earlier post that I try not to interfere unless it is work related or someone asks me for advice. However, if I had seen what you have described there is no way I could turn a blind eye, regardless of the consequences. wave

janie1305: I think Krokox your thread has grown into something entirely different to how I interpreted it and duly responded. That is what often happens here though!

That's true janie but that's the beauty of it isn't it? So many ideas, so many people interacting from all over the world... Love it!

Regarding your article, thank you for posting it. It is rather alarming, isn't it? How the fear of our actions being misinterpreted by society, can affect our lives, our thinking and our actions and to distort / weaken our consciousness so that we can ignore situations which in the recent past to ignore them would be reprehensible? (Oh Panayia mou, does this sentence make any sense?)


BTW, irrelevant but I will say it anyway; I love your latest photo; I almost failed to recognize you!...

Ken_19: Of they are nerve gassing children maybe we should. :)

I assume you refer to the Syria situation and the interference by the US army. Is war the answer to crime? Can we really fight brutality with more brutality?

A_Non_A_Moose: On this planet is not the "right" defined by the "miltary might?"

Not if we can help it. We seem to forget that us, citizens of the world, hold the strongest weapon of all. Our voice... Join it with the millions, and we can rule the earth. As long as we are willing to leave our couch and our comfort to get out there and support what we believe on...

On the other hand, this can only be the silly ideas of a dreamer like I am... dunno
