 What Do Ya Think? - Sticky Post  Yup, kinda busy with work and all that stuff from this morning. In fact was so busy that I only had a chance to consume the bread I bought after lunch [12.30pm] at this very minute [5.00pm]. Anyway, I shall not bore you with my boring work complaints, but if you want you can always ask me about it. I'm gonna need some help for today's post. Just post a comment or 2 about how you feel about the following scenario: You were crossing the road with a girlfriend/boyfriend, and you spot a truck speeding towards both of you. You think that there's no way both of you can escape the truck so, with all your might, you shove your girlfriend/boyfriend to the side, only to realise that the truck actually swurved to that same side at the very last minute, resulting in your girlfriend/boyfriend getting injured/killed, and you escaping with minor scratches. Are you to blame? Come on people. Let's hear what you gotta say. Anyhow written on Apr 22, 2007 at 11:59 PM

Don't think will be the person's fault cause what we predict is "the truck is heading towards us". If the truck just changed direction after we throw the other party then should blame it on FATE. Cause FATE wants u dead. U can't escape death twice. posted by

The intention decides whether the action was a positive or a negative one. Since the intention of pushing the bf/gf was to save him/her, it was a positive action regardless of the fact that the result was a negative one. posted by

no, but you will probably have guilt for quite some time. deserving or not, well, not, in my opinion, but the mind works in funny ways! posted by

I think that I would be guilt ridden for the rest of my life if it happened to me. But, looking at it from an outside pov there is no way you could've predicted what would happen, so it most definitely puts the blame on the truck driver for "speeding towards you". posted by

I don't know if you can exactly blame yourself; however, it is said that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. posted by
