Sometimes ignoring is the best policy, after all, dosing with hot coffee might lead to a lawsuit that would force Starbucks to lower their coffee's BTUssagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17499891950639742366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274757246538504796.post-61012082960543193972015-06-11T10:48:59.609-07:002015-06-11T10:48:59.609-07:00The street corner preacher and Mad Marvin are both...The street corner preacher and Mad Marvin are both eccentric and bellicose. Mad Marvin rants, but so did prophets and in his profanity he manages to get at something close to truth. The street corner preacher rants and may think he's a prophet but he's a hate monger and fills the air with poison. Any city would be a more civil place with the absence of both of them at the public square-until they learn respect.<br />Tom Cochrunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04046822056852446079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274757246538504796.post-75665074836427904332015-06-11T10:47:44.110-07:002015-06-11T10:47:44.110-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Tom Cochrunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04046822056852446079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274757246538504796.post-24295869054367915522015-06-11T08:16:28.464-07:002015-06-11T08:16:28.464-07:00Got it, thanks for the reminder.

Otherwise, it's criminal assault. But let's go along with it for a minute........<br />Why stop there? When we see someone acting in a way we don't like why not run them over with a car? Or shoot them? The first amendment says we are within our rights to verbally disagree with them, but why stop there? <br />Geezers....MM sounds more like a horse's ass than than an eccentric wanna-be. But that's just me. <br />Should Fish Morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18400586203204886095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274757246538504796.post-25606561015137486282015-06-10T08:20:31.639-07:002015-06-10T08:20:31.639-07:00I missed the connection between phony niceness and...I missed the connection between phony niceness and throwing hot coffee. Whoops--and the fascination to watch for twenty minutes while exhibiting said phony niceness.
