Bullet Comments

There are people who take delight in shooting others down verbally- - they seem to derive some sort of sick pleasure from it. But any one of us, if we are not careful to guard our tongues, can hastily say something in anger, even to a loved one, that we will later regret. We should master the art of engaging our brains before we speak! Thank you, Louis, for your commenting! : -)

Thank you, Tom. A little self-control or restraint is much needed in today's times. Hoping you are on the mend, if the poem you wrote about Lyme Disease is true, and not merely imaginative writing!

Many times it is worse than the newspapers- - You can witness it taking place nearby. Thank you for commenting, Carola.

Thanks, Kostas! As we know, if someone just blurts something out, it can be a reaction from an unhealed scar in their past. But if someone deliberately, willfully chooses to speak hurtful things, then that person is simply a mean-spirited one.

Thank you so very much, Bernard! Blessings to you.

Thank you, Sandra. 'Bloodless Clues' - - - I like that. An accurate description!

Actually not difficult to condemn in a court of law- - Daily, there are cases heard involving slander, libel, and defamation of character.

Well, not only did I enjoy your insightful poem but I learned something also. Thank you, now I realize, that you can take people to court for slander, etc., fortunately but perhaps, not done enough.
