Is it wrong to wish someone a horrible disease like cancer etc..

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Is it wrong to wish someone a horrible disease like cancer etc.. (Page 1 of 2)

Mainly those who would love to take our guns away. Is it wrong to wish their next doctors appointment ends with a biopsy?

Today I mentioned to someone that I hope a certain anti gun female gets brain cancer, and they were appalled. To those who would take my freedom away, I hold no sadness when they pass. Does anyone see anything morally wrong with this? Not that I really care.

Before someone jumps in, i've had loved ones die of cancer. I know how awful it is, I still don't care.

A former manager of mine told me about a regional manager that was in charge of his store for a while. Apparently she was quite the battle axe, micromanaging to the point of being downright obnoxious and mean. At one point she was diagnosed with breast cancer; her attitude remained the same. An employee made the poingnent comment of "that's the only person I've met, where I ended up rooting for the cancer."

I can't do it. Karma's a MF'er.

If there really was such a thing, I wouldn't have to wish them dead of horrible diseases.

Nothing wrong with it. Fuck the moral high ground, things need doing in this lifetime.

You know those CHiP's that tackled the old lady (Patty Konie) in New Orleans, took her gun, forced her out of her home, tossed her on a plane, she ended up in the hospital?

Those guys. I hope they get cancer.

If it's wrong, I don't want to be right.

I haven't had cancer myself (though with as much chemical exposure as I get, it's probably inevitable), but I have seen family members waste away to nothing under it, dying a slow death. I still have a very select few people I would, in fact, wish it on.

I'm with you. Several examples: I told my mother when I was in Junior High that I wished my Elementary Principal would get hit by a bus...she said "you don't really mean that." I said "yes I do." To this day she thinks it was just talk, but if that fucker gets mowed down I'll dance on his grave while singing a jolly song! In High School a kid died and everyone was just so fucking sad. Problem was, the kid was a douchebag who thought he was funny but really just made fun of others to look cool. I was QUITE happy he was gone and couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. I was sorry for the other people in the car with him, but on a personal level I was glad to be rid of that guy.

Now that I'm older...my wife hates it when I wish death upon those who I despise...but at least she knows I mean it! Why would you ever have a problem with someone who's a problem ceasing to be a problem any longer? That makes no sense to me. If they should happen to cease to be a problem in a particularly vicious manner...all the better.

Having had relatives die of cancer, I wouldn't wish it on the devil himself.

I don't wish death or illness on any person. However, there are some people that I would, and have celebrated over their passing.

Karma? I will be judged one day, and so be it.

There are rotten people who WILL lie on you to get you into trouble. These are the people I am talking about.

I'm a hater. Some people just need to die, and if its slow and painful, all the better.

I wished that a customer of where I work would get Diabetes then someone told me he already had it and had been hospitalized because of it the year before.

Then they said they had hoped he would die in the hospital when they had found out.

In my opinion, yes it is wrong. Anything you say or do can (and probably will) come back to you. Unintended consequences are a very real, very serious thing.

Here's a little story:

When I was 5 years old, my mom was pregnant with my sister. I did a very stupid, selfish thing: I told my mother that I wished that my sister would die.

I don't know why I did that, but I did it. I guess I liked being an only child that much.

Guess what happened ? My sister was stillborn and my mother nearly died.

Be careful what you wish for.

Don't wish anything unto others that you wouldn't want them to wish upon you. Karma is a bitch. Not talking criminals, terrorists, etc., Just buttheads in general.

My wife is a cancer survivor and my mother beat cancer twice, but the big impact for me was watching my mother days before her death, lying in a hospital bed. She was 87 and had a broken back from a minor fall, so when the attending nurses had to come an tend to her, clean her, etc. the pain for her was excruciating and she would offer up these short, muffled screams of pain. One time, I was there when the nurses were leaving and I could hear my mother say to them in a very small voice "God bless you...God bless you."

When I think of that, it reall makes me wonder why arrogant, elitist dirtbags like Pelosi, Clinton, etc. are allowed to prosper and have such rich and rewarding lives. I get close to wishing on them what had happened to my mother, but it's still hard to do (although I'm sure I wouldn't shed many tears if it were to happen to them).

I have seen and be apart of many family members with cancer. Some made it others were not so fortunate. I do think that some people deserve as much pain and suffering as is possible allowed but the person has to do some horrible things for me to wish that.

I know someone right now that's going through brain and lung cancer.

In fact he just got diagnosed. It's something you don't wish on anyone.

Don't think I could do it. At least something like cancer.

There is a few people I would like to see go on an all night bender with ted kennedy and go joy riding afterwards

i suggest you look into the abyss first hand and IF you come out than you can wish this on someone....

Law of kharma. You get what you put out. Don't.

[#33]

To the OP: I do it.

And I've posted it here many times, in fact.

My father died of cancer and that still doesn't deter me in my hate for these cretin we call politicos.

But, I do feel guilty about it, only because as someone else pointed out: Karma.

I'm so conflicted!

Momma always taught me:
"Be careful what you wish for, 'cause you're liable to get it...

... in one form or another."

That said, I have no qualms about rooting for Nature to Take Its Course.

That's what I want for myself, my loved ones, and my enemies alike.

Well, Ted Kennedy has a brain tumor, I think our prayers have been answered!

Now, instead if just dying outright from a stroke from the tumor, I would rather have him paralyzed and drooling out of the corner of his mouth for the rest of his days. But then again, he earned it by being a world class asshole.

Yes, it is okay. I wish Osama bin Laden dies a swift painful death of colo-rectal cancer.
It depends on the situation. Some people deserve the worst you can wish on them.

My mom died of CA along with my two Grandfathers. That being said for those on my "List" CA is too good for them. I wish ALS upon them. Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, sometimes called Maladie de Charcot... Lou Gehrig's Disease) is a progressive, usually fatal, neurodegenerative disease caused by the degeneration of motor neurons, the nerve cells in the central nervous system that control voluntary muscle movement....Cognitive function is generally spared....Nothing like having a fully functional mind and being a prisoner in your own body, just waiting to die.. Very few are on my list BUT there are some. Yes at times I may be a cold hearted SOB but life is a bitch.

There is an individual who I wish would get syphillis when he cheats on his wife. Cancer's random, it can hit anybody. However, if the same person gets syphillis as a direct result of his immoral actions it's his own fault, and he could have avoided it by being faithful

Not if I do it. My wishing harm on someone usually means they will lead a long and prosperous life.

Seriously, wishing doesn't do anything. Running your mouth about it might make it look bad if it happens to you though.

Just wish things to yourself and don't tell anyone else.
