[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 281451, member: 4362"] Years ago, I lived in Alabama. An old man and woman ran a gambling joint out of their house. Invitation only. One night three men forced their way in and brutally beat them within inches of their life. Police arrested them later. At the hearing the couple dropped all charges and the men walked free. Forgiveness? I don't know. None of their friends or family ever saw them again. I guess they left town. That being said, if someone hurt anyone in my family - I think I would extend the same form of forgiveness but I would not hold it against the person's family. But then again, we don't know what we would actually do until we are faced with the same situation. I hope for all our sakes we never are. My thoughts and prayers go out for the families affected by this. [/QUOTE]
