Zero Respect

[Nebulous]

Who, in your opinion, deserves absolutely NO respect from anyone?

Could be anyone famous or in politics. If they are someone nobody knows of, describe the person to us.

Explain why this person doesn't deserve anyone's respect.

Um Abbot, he has lead us in to another war, he is an idiot, he cannot talk to any one, he canno think for himself and he belittles everyone and he is a woman hater.

Um Abbot, he has lead us in to another war, he is an idiot, he cannot talk to any one, he canno think for himself and he belittles everyone and he is a woman hater.

That would be Mister Tony Abbott, Prime Minister of New Zealand.

But from the description, it could also be Mr. Barack Obama of the US.

Or Dave Cameron of the UK.

Or even Mister Valls of France.

Pedophiles

Pretty much everyone from the George W. Bush administration....the list of high crimes & misdemeanors that pack of thieves, grifters, sociopaths and liars could fill a stadium, to wit:
--Ignoring the August intelligence reports stating that the possibility of a terrorist attack agst. the U.S. was high prior to 9/11
--Playing the idiot ball big-time in regards to the Afghan War...
--...so that they could lie America into a second war in Iraq...
--Deliberately outing a CIA official to the press
--Running the Dept. of Justice as their own private fiefdom and using said agency for partisan purposes (case in point: the various U.S. Attorneys' scandals)
--Squandering a budget surplus left to Dubya by the prior administration to theirs and then adding on top of that w/two needless sets of tax cuts
--The abuse and torture of enemy combatants throughout the years of the Bush-Cheney Administration (and no, just because they were terrorists or evil persons doesn't make it right either)
--Paying news & opinion writers to write pieces favorable to the administration
--Washington's response (or lack thereof) to Hurricane Katrina
--Swiftboating of political opponents for partisan gain (the Repugs' treatment of then-Sens. Max Cleland & John Kerry come to mind on this one)

I could keep going but we'd be here for hours...

Child molesters and rapists to start...

 

[beowulf]

drug dealers and pedophiles,......scum of the earth imo

 

[Webster]

Child molesters and rapists to start...

I think that's a universal sentiment, Justice, one that falls under the rubric of asshole victim in most cases (apologies for the language there)...

 

[+paradox]

okay, well, lets try again shall we?

government officials that are corrupted and steals from the taxpayers/citizens?

 

[DrLeftover]

government officials that are corrupted and steals from the taxpayers/citizens?

Isn't that statement redundant?

 

[+paradox]

in what way?

and it was more of an answer to a question, than a statement...

and to be fair not all government officials are corrupted and steals from taxpayers/citizens...

 

[+paradox]

i also don't respect the famous and the rich people that only want to date and marry other famous and rich people... it seems like that they have this idea that they are better than everyone else that they have to be with someone that are like them, i.e., rich and/or famous... like that's really love ya know? wonder why all of these celebrities always have short marriages?

People who don't respect other people or treat them with dignity. Respect is earned, not given. If you act like a decent human being, don't infringe on other people's rights, and treat people with the respect you want, then you should be respected. But I think that this encompasses quite a bit.

that doesn't square my chin one bit... (;

 

[seasidemike]

I totally agree with the above lists mentioned already, but what is also scary these days is not so much who we shouldn't respect, but those who are respected.
Society has way to much respect and admiration for celebrities who are famous for ... well it is hard to know even why they are famous in the first place because they have done nothing to merit their fame.

 

[DrLeftover]

Justice was right.

Not ALL elected officials are corrupt.

It is a case where the overwhelming majority make that honest tiny minority look bad.

Well said!
