That though was not the point anyway but a letter from a mentor to a student about learning to disregard the personal flaws and quirks of each individual, to not use those quirks as ammunition to attack another.<br /><br />Then I read the comments which always come after the article and found out of the 20 or so that were there 9/10ths were attacks on the mayor's mayoralty. <br /><br />I suppose that my wish is that Johnlee will at least learn to focus and concentrate on what was written and comment appropriately. For an article that warns against bullying, near ever comment was made by a bully.<br /><br />But I can see where you would like this Newspaper Columnist, he does seem to write from the heart. Try some Mitch Albom articles that are not about sports (usually Sunday's at www.freep.com) last week he wrote about a homeless decorated in Viet Nam veteran who died and was laying in the morgue with no known family to claim the body and bury him. <br /><br />It eventually got resolved with a full military funeral in a national cemetery but the comments in the hundreds about 1/2 so full of hate and disregard for the man's life and story were disgusting. <br /><br />Maybe this letter to Johnlee will help things change but personally I doubt it. We all it seems, need to have someone whether it be a homeless, dead, drunk, decorated veteran or a mayor who speaks faster than his brain forms the words causing malapropisms. <br /><br />*sigh* Life continues on as it has since Cain killed Abel.the walking manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058913927297370740noreply@blogger.com
