Question time...

Try to answer them as honestly as you can!

a. You see three teenagers making fun of a mentally handicapped man in the street. What would you do?

b. A dear friend is in agony and wants you to help him/her to die. Would you?

c. Has your life ever been changed by an apparently random occurrence?

a.will jump in the middle and tell those losers to shut the hell up...or if they are really strong and built i would just shout at them something and run away:)

b.ahh..NO..thats the last thing i would ever do to anyone..no one has the right to take away their life..well it depends from person to person..

c.hmm..not that i know off...

a. Will give those teenagers some (a lot actually!) peice of my mind...probably thrash the hell out of them!

b. Hmm...guess I wouldn't. No human has the right to take another ones life according to me...I felt really bad when I was watching Million Dollar Baby.

c. Thank God...have never faced such situations and I hope nothing like that happens in the future either!

This reminds me of "Value Education" classes we used to have :)

So true..! What do you think about death penalty? It is one of the most shameful aspects of our society. It must be abolished throughout the World.

~~Brute

my uncle's friend is DCP

Aaah.. Ok now, my friends (Brute) uncle's friend is a DCP. :)

My answers are in the comments.

"What do you think about death penalty?

what punishment would u deem appropriate for rapists and mass murderers.

Some tough Qs there...hmmm let me see...

a. You see three teenagers making fun of a mentally handicapped man in the street. What would you do?

since u have given us time to think here, most of us will come up with great answers...or one that would be the most accurate to do.

But I think when it really happens and unexpectedly, one wouldnt know what to do right...I'd walk up to the kids and tell them that what they r doing will come back to them some day in their life...


b. A dear friend is in agony and wants you to help him/her to die. Would you?

NO! I will never help anyone to die. Besides it's illegal. I'd take him/her to a quiet place and convince him/her why he/she should live...


c. Has your life ever been changed by an apparently random occurrence?

YES! Just 2seconds and it changed forever...

I agree with Ricky abt the Death penalty...it's the most terrible crime that we ourselves do on others, even tho they r criminals...why do we act JUST like them?

Lifetime Imprisonment could be an alternative to Death Penalty. Could a person get his life back by punishing the murderer with death penalty? Do you think it will make justice?

I remember watching the Fahrenheit 9/11 documentary, one of the soldiers from the Iraqi war said "You cannot kill someone without killing a part of yourself".

 
At 11:16 PM, Blogger Sindhu said...

I agree with you. I don't see why they have to take away the life of the prisoner which in no way can bring back the dead that is if the person had committed murder. According to me life imprisonment is probably worse than death sentence! It's more torturous than one time death.

a)I'll yell @ them in such a way that they go mad..

b)if its a suicidal attempt then NO.. if he/she is in death bed then probably i may thin abt it..

c)ya a lot of times..

 
At 3:03 PM, Blogger Swetha said...

a. Will definetly ask them to stop and tell them what they are doing is wrong

b. Birth and death is everyone's karma. I can be supportive but will not do such a thing.

c. never been in such a situation

 
At 7:14 AM, Blogger Ponnarasi Kothandaraman said...

a. Sometimes by the way ppl talk we can make out their depth.Would see if they are moldable..If not I would just ignore.

b. Nope. Would'nt.

c. Nope.

PS: BTW, Is this any kind of attitude test? What is the analysis?

Have a nice day,
Ponnarasi

a)Perhaps, i wud walk upto them and make them realize who is the real mentally handicapped :-)

b)I would rather stay away from him/her...Isnt that a help in a way?? and let them think on own!


c) YEAH...after i wake up every morning! :D :-)

~~Keshi & Sindhu

Nice to see that we all have the same opinion about Death penalty.

~~Hell's Angel

I'll yell @ them in such a way that they go mad..

Kewl.. they will go mad and someday, someone will make fun of them! :)

~~Ponnarasi

Welcome here! This isn't any attitude test. Just wanted to know how people react to situations! :)

~~Fox

Thanks for visiting my blog.

after i wake up every morning!

Man.. you should be a dynamic person. :)

 
At 8:11 AM, Blogger praveen said...

a) i'd probably tell them off,unless they seem like total bullies and i'm alone...then i would probably just mutter something and walk away

b)OMG..this question has made me imagine some of my dearest friends in that position...hope it never happens and they are alwiz smiling with glee...btw, bk to the question....nope...i would never do it

c)hmmm...no i guess

1) wud go n take the person they were ridiculin away frm thm ...i wudent pick up a fight cos thrs no point in doin it.somethings need not be told they can be expressed by the look in ur eyes.(n i guess my eyes are real expressive whn it comes to issues like these :p)..if they hav a conscience they wud realise on their own...well if they dont thn they r the ones who are mentally challenged n need help
*scowl*
2)no wayss...i wud rather spend time wth my friend makin him/her realise how important he/she is to me n a lotta othr ppl as well n how not lettin go wud make a big diffence to us...its easy to let go--thts the losers way out..its clingin on tht is the challenge n i wud see to it tht my friend is covinced *i can be shamelessly persuasive sometimes---grin*
3)yes sometimes random things/ people make a huge impact on ur life (be it good or not so good)..each person we come across intetioally /unintentionally affects our lives in some way or the othr...mebe even a small act like "stumblin on ur blog" has etched a special moment in my life...:)

1) I will try to talk that differently abled guy out the scene.

2)We dont have access to another soul other than yours. Can talk with him to change the desicion.

3)We are living a life where change is inevitable. WE change to changes and have to accept changes in any form.

a) I think i would most probably stand there look at them with disgust and anger, and perhaps move on. i guess it depends on the situation, if it was someone you know, its easier to kick into action- if this was happenin in my neighbourhood, i'd simple take the mentally handicapped man to his home, and tel his family of what happened and to take better care. If you are en route to somewhere, most probably you wouldnt stop to do anything. But if this was happenin while you you were strollin... then i would perhaps say a word or two to those ppl.

b) i am somebody who gets attached to people. And if someone i love and care for is in extreme pain and is begging for relief, Knowing my self, i know that i would try my best to keep that thought at bay, and try my best to veer the persons thoughts away from it even though deep inside i would feel that death would be far better than this. but if i cant bear to see them suffer, i might be emotionally driven to help them die- no matter what it costs me.

c) life is steered ahead by random occurances. i think everyone's life does change,but we dont take notice of the situation cos wither the occurance or the change wasnt that drastic. but yes there has been a couple of situations that has changed my life forever.


LOVELY QUESTIONS
