Anonymous said...Sue for child support payments? lol. They settled, you idiot, out of court, and he and his ex are still friends. Trying to dig up dirt on the V-man is hard, ain't it?
You're a bleeping idiot.
You see, he/she makes a point that one can construe "facts" based on partial information. Case in point: the reference I made to the Smoking Gun scan of a legal petition for an increase in child support payments. It was not a dirt-digging mission and I didn't make it up, but used it to make a point. It's easy to judge another based on tidbits of information and as I noted, it's his personal biz, but he should hold up a mirror and perhaps hold judgement--because his perceptions, though he has every right to express them, may or may not reflect the truth.
Secondly, Anonymous decides to end his/her comment with "You're a bleeping idiot" which clearly reflects his/her state of mind. He/she is angry. Name-calling is an easy out, a way to diminish another. I'm an idiot because I have a point of view... I'm an idiot because I ask that those with media "power" take a more measured approached to the things they say... I'm an idiot because I state we need to be kind in words and in action.
If this is Anonymous' definition of an Idiot, I guess I'll take it as a compliment. Thanks Anonymous!
And finally, Viggo perhaps says it best:
"Be kind. It’s worthwhile to make an effort to learn about other people and figure out what you might have in common with them. If you allow yourself to be somewhat curious — and if you get into the habit of doing that—it’s the first step to being open minded… and realizing that your points of view aren’t totally opposite. I don’t think anyone’s are, in the end. It’s just a question of finding out by spending time with them or giving their ideas a chance to be considered." -2004
