You need a “big signs that flash and tell you to move over”, to know there is a truck on side of the road? When you see someone having car trouble, do you not try to move to the other lane, when a police officer has someone pulled over on side of the road, do you not try to move over, you use common sense there but not when you know people are working, cause I read one person on here said, the speed limit was 35 mph and people had been working for a while.

Well The Correct thing to do is not Park a truck on a Bridge and also have a flag man…One Little Light dose nothing to let you know there are men working…Common Since says to place those big heavy barrels 1/2 a mile in advance and have one of those big signs that flash and tell you to move over…

Yes they still have their love ones but not home for Christmas or new years. The fact that they still have them doesn’t stop them from worrying themselves sick over them. They probably won’t be home for MONTHS. Ever seen or heard a two year old cry and ask for their Mom or Dad, makes you want to never forget or forgive. And then there’s the scars emotional and physical they have to deal with the rest of their lives
And if all this turned out to be from someones carelessness, how could you expect them to forget?

I know you are probably a family member Melanie , so I’m not going to be hard on you. BUT God will put into motion what he sees fit, it’s not up to man now. I disagree the bible is not all about love, most of the bible is about God’s wrath on mankind. Evil comes in many forms and if someone is being careless in their everyday life, to where someone could get hurt and THEY KNOW their carelessness could get someone hurt, that is extremely evil to me.
My last word on this subject, I hope something good comes to each of the families involved.

the verse references not to “get back” at an evildoer….and no one was evil…the entire chapter is teaching God’s love and how we should show our love . Everyone is accountable for everyday actions and God wants us all to love each other and not condemn, but show love.
