In response to your true words, I totally agree with your sentements.

The situation in todays world is this :

Some people can order you DEAD if you say anything that they decide offends them, even if it is true.

Others can go whinging to the Authorities if you call them a name that describes them and now they have outgrown that name and want to be treated with respect.

In my mind and in my life Respect is a two way street and has to be earned to be given to anyone.

I personally would have the greatest respect for a person of no homble abode who tramps around, if the were respectful to themselves and of course to me as well.

Education, Money or Stature does not give automatic right to be respected.

RESPECT FOR YOUR FELLOW MAN GIVES THE RIGHT TO BE RESPECTED IN RETURN BY ALL.

My way of life is this, I treat all people the way that I myself like to be treated and if this is not the case, I just walk on by and I do not wait on the corner.

So people give respect and you will get respect back to you.
