And sadly we all got to be witnesses that a lot of people didn't learn from the mistakes other made ... history will repeat itself because of that.. I just hope this time at least the german people learned enoght out of it..

but looking at our latest voting results it doesn't seem so either..

I am thinking and I am hoping that there will be people that will stand up this time if something like Hitler and the Jewish people happened again. I believe it would be different because people do stand up and protest more these days. But having said that I know there are people who still follow Trump blindly and feel he can do no wrong and would probably do anything he said.

Life and politics can be so scary!

Beautiful tribute.

Here's what he wrote:

Quote:

scolo222 It’s a wonderful thing when those you so admire from afar are even more admirable when you meet them. John Mahoney was by far one of the kindest, most genuine, generous and talented men I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting and working with. He truly captured the spirit of being a Chicago Actor. A man who would bring a bagged lunch into 1st Class on a flight; who referred to the legendary Steppenwolf as “this theatre company I work with” and who, after several years of helping to make millions of dollars for Paramount Studios would kindly and gently write a letter to the brass asking if it might be possible for the cast to obtain assigned parking spaces so they wouldn’t have to look for parking on the street when the lot became too full on taping days.
More importantly for me personally,he was an actor who would watch from offstage while a mere guest actor on his show, a “nobody” nervously did his best to live up to the standards of the ensemble John was a part of ... and laugh in delight and welcome this actor with a big congratulatory hug when he exited the scene and made him feel like they had just spent YEARS working TOGETHER in creating something wonderful. THAT was John Mahoney and my heart is so sad to learn of his passing for his friends and family, for the sake of this world and on a personal level that I never got to see him again to tell him how important those moments I had with him were and how I carry his lessons with me EVERYTIME I work. #ripjohnmahoney and thank you.

That is a lovely tribute - he must have been a special person to him in both his personal and professional life.

John obviously touched his heart in some way.

Scott seems like the nicest person - he cares for people and about people and his pets and he posts a lot about politics and supporting causes and stuff. He's the kind of person you would like to be friends with or go to a party with I think

I totally agree

a guy who sure supports friends and family is a treasure
