Was a lad in the suburbs of South AUCKLAND..IN A BLACK AREA......if you think your area was as tough, I dare you to walk them streets......I had been bullied by all sorts since I was 5 and eventualy discovred that the bullies were insecure little people with.... an attitude!........bully them back and you'll have a mate for life!...and one that will look out for you forever!.....the toughest of bullies are only looking for ATTENTION, someone to like them, for who they are............sounds SOPPY but it's the truth..got a few mates in Suiites and some in Tattoos, that will always, and are always, prepared to give me a hand if I need if I need it......bullies just need attention...please dont write them all off as idiots.....blame the Parents!...then again Dont blame them....Blame no-one and get on with your life......
PS I have been in the suburbs of many mining towns and have a real understandimg of what goes on...freaky!

You are probably right about the "tough" neighbourhoods.........mine were more like a "walk through the Bottanical gardens" compared to yours........I agree about the 'bullies" and attention...........standard human phsycology....everybody has the deep seated disire to "BELONG"......that might be a gang.......or the local bowling club (thats more my style now days!
)Also agree......I don't "blame" any body for anything...........until they do something, or hurt somebody that they did not have a good reason for.....even then I probably don't blame them, but I would be "unimpressed" with them as a human being. "Bullies", like all of us, are often "victims of circumstance"......as you say......get to know them on a more personal level, and then you have the opportunity to "change" their circumstances, and maybe help them to become a more "productive" members of society..................Cheers.

Now settle down Nelly!!.........I know from your previous posts that "compassion" is not one of your strong points............but hey..........I don't "blame" you for that either
............you're just a victim of your "own" circumstances ......... My point is.........everyone is different........thats what makes the world interesting..........and the fact that you think I might be a social worker, I take as a compliment (even though it wasn't meant that way)..........cause Mate, when you get knocked over by a bus jay walking across "Pitt" street.......I'll probably be one of those "do gooders" who actually tries to help you!!............(and for all I know you could be an axe murderer on vacation )..............anyway, enough of this jibberish; Bottom line; I like to give "all" people the benefit of the doubt, until they "burn" me; and then I get nasty!!.........and I'll even keep being "nice" to you (cause I reckon you're probably a lot bigger than I am ! :hide: ) Cheers, Barney. PS What "I am on" is a secret!!

apart from the fact that we're all miles off the thread here lol - maybe we should all take a leaf from Steve and learn some martial arts. Might even come in handy if you're walking around late at night - and you run into a croc ! lol

hahahehe... lomao!....thats the spirit Barney you tell me good and proper
I agree with u on well...everything....mayb i've been burned 2 many times, I am less trusting these days...does that make me wiser? Or just reserved? I just can't handle bleeding hearts...my sister tells me i can come off mean and cold....i prefer 2 think i'm honest 2 a fault sometimes...i'm the frypan over the head sort of person just haven't got the patience for pussyfootin round 2 busy sortin my own sh#t out.
As far as compassion goes....i'm one of the most campassionate people i know.... i'm the first 2 put the hand up 4 almost anything....i'd probably bowl u over going 2 help the guy who got hit in Pitt street... Gosh is this self promotion or what

Goodonya Nelly, I knew you had to be a good bloke (I bet you REALLY do feel sorry that Steve Irwin died as well, but don't admit it cause we don't want people to think you are going soft
Talk about being burned..........man, have I had some doozies in my time.............but, thats the way I am ......just gotta forget it and get on with it eh!! Gotta say, that I respect people who don't "pussy foot " around.....you know where you stand.............I like that............PS Glad you took the post in the way it was intended (a little slice of the tongue in the cheek!!
Cheers mate. PPS I'm not a social worker..........I'm a muso .........so I also respect your "hangover" :bier: ..........

If anyone saw the interview with Terri Irwin tonight - even people who have allegedly experienced "depression" - perhaps they would like to retread their steps - pick their words more carefully - I make yet another attempt to leave this thread with a bit of dignity.

Not having seen the interview, I have no idea what you are referring to.
Can you expand on your comments?

Hi 2020...dignity?
I understand everyone identifying with Steve and Terry and Bindy and Bob, they were in your face all the time, and he was a woderful ambassador for Oz...
I think what I'm trying to say is put it in perspective, take into account his type of work, you can't say you are too shocked and surprised he died the way he did...ditto for Brock.
I respected him enormously and feel sad for the kids and Terry...but....
What about the 1000,000's of kids with no family, no home, no nothing, who wake up every day to struggle to keep themselves fed and warm, all by themselves with no one to bury their dead mothers, fathers and siblings. What about the ones who crawl off to die alone, or the ones left maimed and greivously wounded. Think of just one country right now being bombed and shot to bits, and then think of the kids and woman who are innocents in it all. And yes the fathers too.
The amount of people paying for trips to Australia Zoo, paying for flowers, all red eyed and depressed.....most of them wouldn't think of sponsoring a kid in a third world country or supporting Amnesty International or funding a cot programme over in Botswana.
You don't even have to look that far, try our own back-yard. I'm sure you read the news papers, people die tragically all the time.
All I'm saying is get a perspective.
So if you mean by 'dignity' that we shouldn't post how we feel about this and only write sob sob posts on this subject maybe you should have posted a thread titled "Everyone who wants to talk about their allegedly sad feelings on Steve Irwin....." Then you wouldn't have to read this.
Cheerful
