Cockroaches don't need to be in my house.

I trap them under a glass and slide thin cardboard under that. I
place them gently outside.

Whatever works for you...

Cockroaches transmit human disease.
They are vermin.

Vectors that can cause endless human suffering due to misguided fools
like you.

No offense.

I believe in being merciful when it's appropriate.

Mine, my families and my neighbors health are more important than that
of the cockroach. They are not an endangered species, nor do they have
any benefit that I know of.

I treat fire ants, mosquitos and houseflies with the same "compassion".
I make sure that they meet a reasonably merciful death.

Oh, and rats and mice too. I'm sure all the people that have died of
Hannta virus and bubonic plague will bow down and thank you for your
mercy in rescuing vermin.

Fleas, lice, ticks... I could go on.
There are limits to mercy. It's called common sense.

Unfortunately, it seems to be an oxymoron to people like you.



The Omelet is deliberate, Omeggs are generally served scrambled. ;-)

Okay.

You have no sense of humor.
Go back to your cave please.

Hide from reality where you cannot hurt anyone by setting disease ridden
vermin free to hurt other humans!

Better yet, feed them and keep them in your home where they can transmit
their delightful pathogens to you.

Bacteria and viruses have a right to live too, right?

Sorry, but this crap can be carried to extremes, and I WILL draw the
line at cockroaches and similar creatures!!!!!!!

I work in health care. I've SEEN the suffering they can cause!

Set that damned cockroach free. It'll wander over to where some baby or
elderly person (those more likely to die of Salmonella infection) will
get infected and die due to your "compassion".

I'll let you comfort the family members.

Cheers!

OOps, must have struck a nerve.

Watch a 3 year old die of some stupid vector virus.
Watch her family fall apart.

Then tell me you have compassion for a damned cockroach.

You are so clueless.........

Mmmmm, I don't think so.

A child dying is awful and unfortunate, but karma determines what
happens in our lives. That's my belief. Kill a cockroach, next life
die of some stupid vector virus. Karma ripening as similar to the
cause. Of course you'll turn that into what you want my words to mean,
so go ahead.

I have compassion for all sentient beings, including cockroaches.

The objection I have to your bullshit is not killing that you do, but
that you do it in the name of om mani padme hum, which you replaced
with omlette. You are the one who appears clueless.

The fact that you value the life of a cockroach over the life of an
infant or a Grandparent shows where your "karmic" values lie. They will
catch up to you in the next life.

'nuff said. I will not comment on this further......

I don't set cockroaches free, nor do I live with them. Ever.

I never once said I value any life over another. So I was correct
when I said you'd twist my words for them to mean whatever you want
them to mean. And "om" doesn't mean enlightenment.

It's quite virtuous to value all sentient beings. The ant I save from
the pool is my own.

Yes, dear. Anything with a consciousness is a sentient being. Are
you saying a cockroach doesn't have consciousness? Why do they run?
You said you weren't going to further comment. Maybe you should stay
with that.

I wasn't being self-righteous. I do live with cockroaches, they are
everywhere. For me to kill the two per year in my house is
ridiculous, so I catch and place them outside. Mice AND rats live out
back and are welcome to do that. I provided them with a huge area of
their native habitat, thus, no need to enter my house. I never saw a
scorpion in person, but if I did I'd do my best to trap and release
it..

I think killing because something disgusts you is
SELF-righteousnessism.

Do whatcha gotta do girls.

I don't care what you do, but to do it under the name Om mani padme
omelet is disrespectful. It's not not nice OR kind. I don't remember
what treedweller is referring to. However, I make NO claims to being
perfect.
