Ride for Kobe

Who is going?

 

No thanks

 

Downside of being retired. I just realized today is the January 28. Too late for me.

 

How about a ride for the other people who died?

 

Do you need to bring a rape kit?

 

Again, ride already over. No need to post.

 

I am not sitting in a helicopter just for fun.... No thanks guys

 

Should be riding for our Heros in the Military,or First Responders

 

Nice first post. I like you already!!!

 

Kobe style...
Thanks Tom Leykis!

 

It surprises me how a thread posted by mistake still has life. People around me are dealing with the grief of Kobe’s death in different ways. This was one of them. This was not an attempt to nullify the deaths of the people who died with him.

I found this poster on Facebook and decided to share it with others who might want to participate.

If you aren’t one of those people, this thread was not for you.

 

These threads are for everybody. They are regularly hijacked, killed, and resurrected. You certainly can't control them and where they go......usually to oil.

Seems like the "people" that made the flyer only cared about Kobe and some pointed that out. That's their right. Why can they not have a voice? Why would you want to silence them? With our recent talks that's not a very good way to have a society full of equality.

How do you think the families of the others killed feel with only Kobe and his daughter getting recognized? Were the others not as important? I can't say I've seen any outlet mention any other names.

Guess you could have deleted it as soon as you realized you missed it. Maybe that would have kept others from responding.

 

How do grieve for someone you did not know? I am a huge NASCAR fan and was a Dale Earndhart fan, we he died I felt to reason to grieve. I never knew the guy. I can feel sorrow for the families but that is it. Just boggles my mind with you see all the folks balling their brains out over someone they never knew but will never stop and shake the hand of an officer or soldier (I always do).

 

Here is the tricky part. Allowing people to have a different perspective, and beyond that, respecting it. Perhaps you could try that.
