  5. I guess this could be a warning to anyone considering work as an uber driver or taxi driver. The risk is real.
  6. "He was very loved and everyone cared for him still can't believe he's gone very nice guy, very loving, all about family," Moto declared. Medina-Chevez and his wife Elsa met in 1989 when the two were in middle school. The couple has three daughters who mobilized to find Medina-Chevez when he went missing. They passed out flyers and drove all over Charlotte looking for him. CMPD also launched an intense search effort, assigning missing persons and homicide detectives to the case. Their investigation led them to Annapolis, MD where they said Medina-Chevez's credit card was used. Maryland State Troopers tracked down his Nissan Pathfinder and took two of the occupants into custody. Five days after he disappeared, Medina-Chevez's body was found in a wooded area in Rock Hill. Diontray Divan Adams and James Aaron Steven are both charged with his murder. "This wasn't the outcome we would've wished for, now knowing we can move forward and always have him in our memories," said Moto. "We're going to miss him a lot," he declared. A Free Funder page has been set up for his family. It has raised more than $40,000, which includes a $10,000 donation from Uber's East Coast General Manager Meghan Joyce.

  7. Beweisen wir in Wort und Tat, dass wir die Worte Jehovas wirklich lieben Quelle
  8. The appeal requests a full reversal of the ruling. It emphasizes that the ruling is not based on factual evidence and that the Witnesses are not guilty of any extremist activity. Source
  9. Les visiteurs sont plus nombreux que la semaine précédente. Découvrez l’opinion des voisins sur le complexe maintenant achevé. la source

  13. For example... what will a snake slithering through the grass or in trees eat?
  14. @fiskilis is welcome to post on here as is anyone else. (Similar to Facebook) Yet, I would ask that he share something of value rather than just criticize others. I can't read greek so I don't usually keep up with what he posts elsewhere.
  15. Aren't the writers of the Watchtower, translators of the New World Translation (Bible) AND jw.org ALL ANONYMOUS? I get tired of the double standard by many out there. @ARchiv@L if you could translate my words into Greek that would be helpful.
  16. I was taught the same way that @Nnaemeka explained so well above. I also see the practicality of @James Thomas Rook Jr. position on weapons in general. -------------- Questions still stuck in my head are: Jesus could summon the 12 legions... but I cannot. = I get to carry a "sword"? Was Jesus reproving Peter for acting on the offensive? would a defensive use of his sword only been ok? ----------- The reason I ask these questions is that in a world where every 3rd person and his grandma is carrying.... when that one lunatic shows up at the KH one day I would like someone there to be able to fire back. It would be hypocritical of me to say that it is wrong to carry such a firearm and then be glad JTR had one on his person. --------- After the bombing of the Kingdom Hall in Australia we see that there were no legions of angels dispatched to protect that congregation. Leaving me to ponder these questions still. ------- FYI - I do not carry or own a gun. I barely know how to fire one correctly. I do have a "dagger" camping (Rambo style) knife kept in a closet somewhere that I bought at a camping store. (I can't say that I know how to even fight with a knife either) It may be that we live in a fiercer world where us older (I use that term reluctantly since I am only 45) JW men may need to "toughen up" and learn to protect ourselves. I think sometimes about Abraham (God's friend) and his ARMY.... or David and his ARMY.... or Solomon with his NAVY... Good discussion everyone.
  17. @Allen Smith I implore you (again) to please try and make your claim / counterarguments WITHOUT name calling or attacking other posters. Simply state your possibility or claim and call it good.
  18. Posting your favorite shots online is a convenient way of staying in touch with friends and family, but it also has potential dangers. Source
