It sure does - and you wouldn't say anything to them. Just like you wouldn't and didn't say anything to those cops. All you would do is get on the web and whine - just like you are doing now.
You are a bad person.
GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE ROAD!!!!!
Yes

ok buddy. Big difference in saying something to you and saying something to a cop. If i got out of my car, walked up to a cop and told him to get the fuck out of the road, i would be arrested.Originally Posted by David88vert
I'd probably think someone that did though was more mature than a grown man coming on an internet forum and crying because he had to sit and wait for something I would guess far more important than whatever you were doing to go by.
You sound like a middle school kid upset about his life trying to get a rise out of others. Grow up and maybe you will get somewhere in life.
It doesn't make you a bad person, it makes you look like a fucking ass.
Still better than going to the dentist for implants, no?
I got free clear tails with my ride.....
you're 24 years old and telling someone to grow up and get somewhere in life.
you speak wisdom.
Yeah? lol You're almost 30 according to your posted age and making threads on a forum about how upset you are.
this.Yeah? lol You're almost 30 according to your posted age and making threads on a forum about how upset you are.
You think that it would be wise to get out of your car and tell 20+ bikers off? You don't have any common sense at all.

Annoyed would be a more fitting description than upset. Not sure why people act like it takes some great effort or preparation to start a thread.Yeah? lol You're almost 30 according to your posted age and making threads on a forum about how upset you are.
I wouldnt get out of my car to confront strangers. Horn and me speaking out the window would suffice.
I have never once seen a group of civilians block traffic for their own personal convoy. If it happened on a saturday, wouldnt bother me. Like i said..... weekdays during work hours and in rush traffic, there is no place for these things.
And it was the police who blocked your path for the funeral procession - not civilians just doing it on their own.
So, why are you complaining?
"Racing is life. Anything before or after is just waiting." - Steve McQueen
because the police shouldnt be used to block public traffic for a business service. It would be no different than me opening a pizza place and blocking off traffic for my pizza deliveries. I understand that this method of burial ceremony is sacred to some people.... but it's not to me and it's not to many other nonchristian people. I exercise my religious freedom within the confines of the law.... not excluding traffic law. There should be consistency in the law and things that are otherwise unlawful should not be accepted, or in this case aided by civil servants. When policemen kick protesters out of parks they usually cite some city ordinance regarding proximity to a fire hydrant or occupancy limits or anything else "in fine print" they can use. I expect the same consistency in other laws even though some people may feel it's the right or respectful thing to do. Red means stop, green means go. If i stopped traffic to sacrifice a goat in the middle of an intersection because of my religious beliefs, i would be arrested. Some people (myself included) think sacrificing a goat is stupid and would be angry if i stopped traffic. Well.... i think getting buried in a box on someone else's property and arriving with a convoy of cars is stupid.
See, you are dancing around on tangents trying to save face.
Here are the facts:
The police direct traffic - legally.
The police can choose to block and intersection at any time for any reason that they feel serves the public interest.
You are complaining about the police directing traffic, which is their legal task.
If you want to change it, you need to petition your state representative and ask him to change the law; otherwise, you are just complaining like an immature kid.
Georgia Code - Motor Vehicles & Traffic - Title 40, Section 40-6-76
(a) As used in this Code section, a 'funeral procession' means an array of motor vehicles in which the lead vehicle displays a sign, pennant, flag, or other insignia furnished by a funeral home indicating a funeral procession unless led by a state or local law enforcement vehicle and each vehicle participating in the funeral procession is operating its headlights.

(2) Operators of vehicles in a funeral procession shall yield the right of way when directed to do so by a traffic officer.
(c) Funeral processions escorted by the police, a sheriff, or a sheriff´s deputy shall have the right of way in any street or highway through which they may pass. Local governments may, by ordinance, provide for such escort service and provide for the imposition of reasonable fees to defray the cost of such service.

i dont give a shit about saving face. i say what i feel and have since day 1 and will continue to do so.
It is not right for funerals to have special privilege. A funeral home is a place of business providing a paid service to a customer.
The law disagrees with you, and frankly, so does the majority of the public. You have a legal right to have your own opinion and to express it, but in this case, your are wrong, plain and simple.

If you're in a hurry just hit your flashers and act like you're one of them.. lol.
In a way I agree and don't. I don't think cops should be blocking the shit off, they have more important shit to worry about and spend government money on.. But I do think the respect should be given for them, I stop no matter how bad it pisses me off that I get stuck when I'm trying to go somewhere..
This is no where near as bad as cops blocking off the road for around 100 mopeds to be let out of some moped meet they had in Chattanooga a month or two ago.. That shit was ridiculous..
Yay for WL stupidity. Sinfix, I don't know you, but you make me happy. Because you're completely fucking stupid you bring a small portion of drama back to the WL that I've missed for so long. Thanks.
Of course I own this.
IT PUTS THE OREOS ON THE RIM
What? Later, QD.

Glad i could be of service.
I'm gonna order a pizza tonight, i'm gonna call in a police escort for my delivery driver so that it gets here faster.
I'd say you're a bad person, in reference to the funeral situation. I pull over if i see a procession on the road, and if it's long, i get out and stand beside the road. Being respectful goes a long way. I know i'd want the same thing from drivers if I had a loved one die.
also, way back to your statement about tradition and funerals originating in religion on the first page, if you follow that logic, you also believe on halloween we decorate our houses and dress up to appease demons and ghosts.
The last time i attended the funeral of a loved one, i skipped the convoy and just drove to the burial site. I wouldnt notice or expect any "respect" from passing motorist. Even during the mourning of a lost relative, i couldnt help but feel it was pointless for cars to line up and travel in a convoy. I also couldnt help but notice how much a funeral home resembles a used car lot when you're working out the arrangements. This is a tradition i simply do not believe in. It has nothing to do with respecting the dead.
The holy ghost is equally as fake as casper the ghost. I participate in both Christmas and Halloween. I do not believe in Jesus or ghosts of any kind.
I can't tell you if Jesus is real (or whatever you want to call it), but I can vouch for ghosts being out there. That I know to be fact. Later, QD.

i have "trusted" friends that swear on their life that they have seen a ghost. I believe that they believe they have seen ghosts... but in my opinion, the mind is a very powerful thing and is capable of playing tricks on us.
I've seen one once. But my recorded pieces of evidence are my greatest assets towards proof of existence.
It sucks, though, because when I was doing the ghost hunting thing, I had a website up with all evidences posted. I let the website go and deleted the site design tools from my computer before I realized all my sound clips and video clips were in folders within that file. Needless to say, I was quite upset. I had some very good vocal recordings of "the other side." They do exist. No mind tricks here. Later, QD.

Audio wouldnt do anything for me, id be skeptical of video being tampered with. Something i would have to see with my own eyes to believe and even at that point i would seek any and every scientific explanation for it.
I do agree with you, man. It is a very sensitive subject in regards to what to believe and not believe. I believe mainly because I was there and know what I saw/heard. But when I capture a voice (like a recording of a baby crying in the middle of the night in the middle of a cemetery), that is clearly a voice and I know my surroundings, it's hard to cast off. Pictures are my only bane. Between orbs and mists, it's hard to tell what's what a lot of the time so I don't usually mess with them unless it's something really to pry into.
When it's stuff on television, though, I get real skeptical. Wondering if it's just made for TV or what. Later, QD.

People who've taken exctasy have told me that they've witnessed a simple bush grow into a T Rex(dinosaur). Just because we see or hear something doesn't mean it's real or actually happened/existed.

Too bad that there isn't any.
Ghosts are currently undefined in science, and thus can not be used as explanation of paranormal activity.
But Science being Science, which is studied and written by experiments done by, well just another human, can change at any time. So there is hope for your theory, QD. Later.
No. Just because you didn't see or hear something doesn't mean it didn't happen.
I already know that there is hope for what I've experienced as fact. I have (well had) the proof. Later, QD.

This same exact argument can be made by religion. I'm sorry you guys don't see Jesus Christ, but he comes over to my house on Thursday night for poker.
Ya'll should stop by.
BTW: Jesus likes to cheat so keep an eye on him.
Sweet. How many Shekels is the buy-in?
