When a Mother Dies the Most Important Thing to Remember is...

[thundley4]

BS. You are telling me after a mother found her son dead, all she wanted was sypmathy? Are you serious? Just because he was a member of DU?

She posted it hours after finding the body. She wanted sympathy. It's a pattern that DUmmies have repeated over and over again when death or other ills befall them.  Rarely do they ask for prayers or such from those godless heathens.

I am glad you were there and know exactly what happened. You can call people godless heathens all you like, but this kinda talk is about as Godless as any I have seen. You have NO clue what that mother went through. NONE. You can base it on whatever you want to base it on, but still you have NO clue.

This is as disgusting as anything people complain happens at DU.

Nope. I've seen them grave dancing when people die. You've probably joined in on that crap. I've read enough of their sickness to know they are godless for the most part. And to say I have no clue what the mother went through is more BS. Sh posted on DU about it for Christ's Sake. Now FOAD. I'm done with you. '

You still need to justify murdering unborn babies in another thread.

Nope, never grave danced. Nor would I tell someone to FOAD because I called them on their crap. Actually, I would never say that to anyone.

And I don't need to justify anything to anyone who just told me to FOAD. Be done with me. I care. Really, I do.

Please tell me you're not serious?

Dead serious.  (Pardon the bad pun).  I can't quite remember his name but he was once visited by the great author, and all around drunk, Will Pitt.  He may have even been the first DUmp monkey with 1000 posts.

I once witnessed a widow throw the folded US flag from her husband's coffin.  We were told not to worry about it, she was just mad that he had died and left her with four kids.

As I recall, Kephra was quite a large one, so mama must have used a floor jack to move him aside. I'm flashing on one of the scenes from the film Seven....

[Zathras]

Ok, but remember these are people. This person did just lose their mother. I find it in much poorer taste to make fun of it.

Sorry but when the DUmbasses stop grave dancing when a conservative dies, I'll have pity for the DUmbasses when bad thing happen to them and theirs. Till then, no pity for the Dumbasses and much happyness for the suffering they endure.

Gotta agree with Soleil on this one.

[Ralph Wiggum]

Jeez.

When I pass on, the last thing I would ever want discussed was my political views.  Not that they aren't important, but in the grand scheme of things, who cares in the end?

Maybe that was something near and dear to her mother. People grieve in all kinds of ways. No criticism from me. And I don't know this poster either, but maybe that is something her mother would want to be remembered for.

Yeah, toots--when my dad passed right before Christmas, I couldn't get enough time on here telling everybody what a great Republican Dad was, which he really wasn't.  Nah, screw that little shit like helping his widow, attending the memorial, comforting his 90-plus year-old parents.  That's petty shit.

Jesus you're an apologist tool, you know that?

I am sure she was shocked. After seeing my own mother find out her son had died, I can assure you there is no looking for sympathy. That doesn't factor in. In fact, not much factors in at all. Shock and terrible terrible sadness.

This just proves liberals are not fit to be their own masters.

If there is a medical emergency there is no reason to take the time to type and await a response from total strangers when 911, family...the frakkin' neighbors...are moments away.

When my infant son was attacked by a dog I shoved it away with my foot. When the animal leapt at me I stuck a fist in its face and a foot in its ribs and it slinked off. I then took up my screaming son, applied bandages and pressure to his bleeding hand and firmly but calmly instructed the wife to bring the car around. When she, in her near-panicked state, began driving erratically I again firmly but calmly reminded her that our collective safety was vital to getting him to the hospital as quickly as possible.

None of that required asking a bunch of numbnuts on the internet about how I should respond.

People who cannot handle the most rudimentary aspects of their lives should not be looked to for advice or counsul on how to live life. They surely should never be allowed to rule over others. In fact they should be sold in public auction.Yes, death and violence and injury and disease and misfortune are integral parts of life.

You sure that dog wasn't a Ptarmigan agent?

Can't say the thought hadn't crossed my mind.

Original message
My mother passed this afternoon - A Democrat that will be missed
 My mother was a good Democrat having worked on many campaigns all the way back to Humphrey and Senator Hughes (Iowa) to Senator Bedell.

I remember many a campaign party at my parents house growing up.

She was proud of my involvement in the Kerry, Clinton and Obama campaigns.

She worked the polls for many years until about 5 - 5 years ago.
...

So basically it sounds like she had a long history of backing liars, crooks, and losers.  Which one are you?

[dutch508]

Don't know why she is so worried. Her mom will still vote in the next ten or so Democratic elections.

Sol, humor is another way of dealing with death. Lighten up! Yer goin' to raise you blood pressure! That is if you have any blood. Most libs that I know, I would swear, have ice water runnin' thru their veins when they speak of conservatives kickin' the bucket!.

So get a job, and if you can't stomach our dry humor, get lost! I prefer the latter as all you ever do is get pissy on every thread I've had the unfortunate experience to run across your posts!

ETA: oh, and FOAD! heh, heh

[delilahmused]

I would, but again people grieve differently.

People grieve differently but even the Kennedy family wanted to grieve privately at first. This person is seeking sympathy and pats on the back on an anonymous message board, not for any wonderful quality she had but because she had a 'D' behind her name. My mother died a year ago. I don't even know that many people here even know. She had a lot of issues, was a raging alcoholic, and pretty far to the left. But she was also a PRESENCE, she was artistic, and a surprisingly strong but tortured soul. I share an awful lot with the people here (and even posted about my 15 year old dog died) but out of respect for my family AND my mother, none of whom post here, I thought the grief should be private. Sorry, but this was the act of an attention whore.

Well he is an ass anyway. I would expect him to say such. And I know there is a lot of grave dancing over there. I find that disgusting as well. Always have. I usually spoke against it if I found it.

[VivisMom]

Seriously?!?!?!?! 

My mom died back in 2007, when I was still very active over at CU. I believe it took me something like six weeks before I went back to post there-and even THEN I don't think I made a big announcement, just a couple of PMs to friends.

So this kind of behavior makes me very inclined to believe that the DUmpmonkeys do this kind of shit just to attention whore. God knows they love it.

When my dad passed away several years ago, I sent a brief email to people I knew on message boards telling them I'd be offline for awhile and not to worry.

[DefiantSix]

When my father passed away, I posted it on a sister board to CC.  I was able to do so only because he had lingered far longer than he should have, giving me far longer than I would have ever hoped for to make my peace with the fact that he was leaving me, and I was relieved that he was finally at peace.  At no point in the thread did his political views or personal philosophies ever come up, except as may have been inferred from the things he did in life and the manner in which he raised me and my siblings. 

When I pass on, lo these many, many moons from now, the first dumb shit I hear/read discussing my political beliefs will find that I will meet them at the pearly gates to kick their sorry ass up just below their ears.   If I was a good man in your view, tell the world what I did that was so inspiring to you.  If I screwed you over somewhere, somehow, for God's sake man, let the whole world know what a ****ed up son of a bitch I was, then let it go and get on with the business of living life.
