Am I afraid of crime, Am I afraid of being murdered not really death is as much a part of life as life it self. I do not welcome death I would love to be 27 know what I know now and live forever. Am I afraid for my family yes I don't want to see any harm come to them. I have a gun, an alarm on my shop and dogs.

I did 7 years Tae kwon do under 2 different teachers. The last teacher had the most impact on my life. He was a retired professional fighter from Korea best I can describe him is he was like Mr. Meaggi from "Karate Kid" As far as belts went He did not use color belts, It is where you stood in his class that mattered.
He said "a belt might be used as a weapon so would the color matter?"


well wow vicky i must say u mussy the baddest transgender around.

i for one use to have a fear of being shot. i dont know y. i have gotten over it now but seeing a gun gives me the willies still. i am not a fraid of dying but i am afriad of dying before i get to accomplish all or most of the goals i have set out for myself.

speaking of death, i believe no matter how violent a person may have died i believe death is pretty much painless. what do yall think

Being killed by some "goober" who wants to rob me for a few dollars strikes me as a waste - both for me and him!

Thanks to modern drugs, death can be mostly painless - seldom is it pain free. In some cases, particularly if you are shot, it can be very painful. Sometimes the drugs don't work and the person dies - screaming!!!! (Both in pain, shock and fear!) Very sad indeed.

I don't fear death I hope for all the transition will be painless but I don't think it is. I really don't know what I will do when it is my time as that is something you only face once. But I feel other than the pain involved I will be comfortable with death. Goals of this life are just as impermanent as this life it self.
There are things I would like to do and see before I pass on but all that I am meant to see and do will come to pass.
One thing in my heart I would really want is to do (for lack of a better term) is to walk down the isle again with my wife but this time with both of us as brides.

Here is one for you all
The crippled old man I hope I have helped was robbed last night. He came by this morning dirty and cloths a mess. He said the guys pushed him down cut his pants pocket open and took what he had he begged them to leave his NIB ID they did. But before the left him they hit him in the legs with his walking and pushed him into a ditch. I brought him into the house got him some breakfast and asked him if there was anything I could do. He said no sat and chatted for a while and then he left.
Wonder what the got from him a man who goes to the Salvation Army to get some food.

Here is where I would be so hard on criminals it even scares me.

that is HORRIBLE. i mean this story really burnt me up :hot: . i am not usually a violent person but i swear if i came across those hodlums they was gettin run over, then i would back it up and run over them again. it is just sickining what goes on in nassau these days, i mean crime happens every where but stuff like this shouldnt happen in the bahamas. another story that had me troubled, last year my aunts elderly neighbour (around 70 or older) who lives alone was robbed and raped. it makes me wanna puke

thanks CG and vicky for those in sightful thoughts. vic i really like that we will see and do all that we are meant to see and do.

Cg i am with you it would really burn me up in the after life knowing some jiggalow come and deprived me of my right to live. this is why i am for the death penalty, even if it doesnt work, if a person took it upon themselves to deny another the right to live then that person should be denied that right as well.

hey CG and vic i am guessing yall have seen someone die before? i made that statement becuase of my own near death experiances, but i have never seen someone die.

well i think what leads to death can be very painful for sure, depends what kills you. Never seen anyone "die" but ive seen people get killed before, so I guess they died ... accidents and stuff.

well let me tell of my experiances:

when i was in 2 nd grade in nassau during the school day we had a lesson on how to cross the street safely. walking home from school i was about to cross the street, i immediatly remeber what my teacher talked about: 1- stop, 2- look both ways 3- then cross. i stopped, looked, and proceded to cross next thing i know BAM, i went sailin in the air. dont know how far i was thrown but all i remeber was seeing blue sky. i didnt feel the initial hit or landing. i remeber everything was silent and it fealt like i was lyin there for eternanity before the man that hit me picked me up and carried me to the hospital. good news no broken bones or nothing. also me and my fam laugh and joke about it today


in florida when i was like 12 me and my cousin who was like 8 and a few other people at our apt complex was swimming in the pool, i had been swimming for awile and went to sit one the side of the pool. (i should mention at the time my cousin had just learned to swim, for some reason he could swim just fine but if he had to stop he needed to be able to touch the bottom to start swimming again) n e way this ninny swam from the shallow end into the deep end, aparently in the middle of his deep watter trek someone cut him off and he had to stop swimming.

n e way i am chillin pool side when i hear him scream my name and for help, its amazing how tired i was but at that moment everything just left me and without thinking i jumped in to help him. when i got over to him it was like he had the strength of 10 men. he started to try and climb on top of me and in the process holding me under water. me and him literally began fighting to stay on top of the water, there was times when i was holdin him under tryin to get away and vice versa but for some reason even though i was twice his size he was winning.

i remeber being held under 2 short times and then the final long one. toward the end of the long one everything got silent and i stopped struggling with him and i just remeber thinking this is it, this is how i die, today is the day. i am not going to grow up, i wont see my mom or sis any more. and then no lie, that white light people talk about i saw it, it doesnt suddenly turn white it starts to fade in from the corners of your eyes. just then people finally relised what was goin on and pulled us out.

after that i remeber everything i touched fealt harder than hard, i was shakin like a leaf, i was out of breath, the air taste different. i was just thankful. but boy i will neva forget that day as long as i live.

but n e way in both of those experiances i remeber feeling no pain just peace and quite. but then again it wasnt like i was shot

You were having what is known as shallow water blackout. Not much longer and you would have been dead.

FYI next time you need to rescue some one swim under them come up behind them grab them by the hair control the head you control the body. If not possible under the arm pit. Hold them up enough so the can breath and hear you tell them you have the and not to panic. You must keep their head above water or the panic will not stop. You get the to relax and understand things will be ok, Then begin to swim them to safety. If they should grab you and pull you under or get control of you swim down they will let go. Get behind them again and try again. Some times you just have to let them go into shallow water black out in order for both of you not to drown.
This depends on where it is taking place, their size and strength compared to yours. How far you have to swim to get to them and how far you have to swim to get back to safety.

All in all the best way is to give the person in trouble something that floats. Something that if you have to you can let go.

I was a safty diver (life garud) for Under Water Tours and Bahama Divers.
Shallow water black out is oxygen depravation. I happens a lot for deep free divers who force hyperventilation before going down. It is how I paid my bills spear fishing before compressors were legel in the Bahamas.
I have been gauged at 75 ft just mask fins and snorkel. I have been to the second level of the ocean hole out east just mask fins and snorkel I hear its 90 ft. I don't know I did not have anyone down there with depth gauge. I did not find the ocean hole till I was 40.

well wow u just keep on surprising me. i would NEVA go into a deep whole, actually i hated snorkling and i am sure i would hate diving. what i dont like is how you can hear your heart beat and your breathing in and out. when i snorkled which was once, i fealt like i was suffocating even though i had no trouble breathing. n e way every one likes different things.

hey have you ever been to that blue hole in the bahamas, i cant remeber which island it is in but it is featured on www.bahamas.com, i love that website.
