SMH: Family of victim of Cleveland gunman Steve Stephens forgives him

[Mordith]

Its either forgive or revenge in my book.

All that holding a grudge is petty to me.

Anyone who holds a grudge because they don't have the heart to chip whomever to exact revenge is pussay.

 

[Concerning VIolence]

Cacs have no problem holding in grudges or seeking revenge.

Revenge is a natural human emotion.

I will never forget and I will never forgive.


You're bytchmade if someone killed a member of your family and your mindset is "I forgive them ,the past is the past and nothing can be changed".

 

[Biscayne]

Black victims families have forgiven White mass shooters in the past. Black folks shouldn't forgive Black shooters though?

 

[thekingsmen]

I'm thinking the same thing. I haven't looked to deeply into anything, have you?

The Scott family, victim families forgave Dylann Roof, pulse nightclub families, sandyhook forgave, navy yard shooting victims forgave... its a pattern

 

[Umoja]

Why do people have something against forgiveness?



Cool, you wouldn't have done it, gotcha! We dig it. You don't have compassion the way some others do.

How often do people in a position of power talk about forgiveness?

Compassion is a good thing but people need to be sensible with it and check that their compass hasn't been calibrated to their oppressor's convenience.

 

[Concerning VIolence]

Because they watch a lot of dumb movies that glorify revenge and think it's cool.

So movies invented and glorified revenge?


Revenge has been around since humans have been around.

The Bible is chockful of revenge and bloodlust.

 

[Ronnie Lott]

Black people coming inured to be castrated by religion

 

[AndroidHero]

Part of the script.

You are really the worst.

 

[the cac mamba]

Where in the Bible does it say to forgive murderers? :cosbycig1:

god doesnt even do it himself

 

[thekingsmen]

You are really the worst.

Be mad when you are stuck in your feelings and you cant debate shyt.

 

[ReturnOfJudah]

Forgive people that haven't repented brehs

Where in the Bible does it say to forgive murderers? :cosbycig1:

Murders can change. Saul was killin religious folks until Christ checked him. The problem is that people are forgiving folks that didn't even change or apologize. And forgiveness don't happen that quickly . Trust is earned over time, not 2 days after they kill your pops

 

[NOSaintsFan02]

Not his whole family

Godwin's daughter Brenda Haymon learned of Stephens' death as she was planning funeral arrangements for her father.
"All I can say is that I wish he had gone down in a hail of 100 bullets," Haymon told CNN. "I wish it had gone down like that instead of him shooting himself."

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Why would that be an 'L'? They get on with their lives while the killer is either tormented in Hell for eternity............or not.

Either way, he's dead.

What good is holding a grudge against a dead man?

​

The original poster doesn't give 2 shyts about the victim or the victim's family. They're just a convenient talking point to segway into insulting religion
