If you say that you have never lumped my type into some generalization, that does not mean that someone else hasn't.

So, you get back at the big, bad stereotypers by doing the exact same thing? Good logic there, too.

> So just because you never did it means I can't? Oh, I forgot. I'm just a lowly lvl.4 neutral.

I never specifically lumped you into the same category as described by me, but if you wish to interpret my words in that way, be my guest.

I will, thanks. But it's not just you. It's everyone who says, 'Those damned anti-war shysters are all the same,' or 'Those stupid pro-war idiots are all the same!' NONE of it makes sense.

> WHY doesn't it make sense?

You can take that any way you like, but I meant it as a small mention of how so many people claim to be openminded and fair, yet when it comes right down to it, they're just as predjudiced against people with different ideas as the next guy. It's all about respect. This isn't a personal attack. Don't get so defensive.

> I certainly don't claim to be openminded or fair, so what's the point of this? Although you are right about the respect part, there is almost NO room for respect in real life politics, because to do so would mean that you are wrong about everything: The #1 taboo of politicians nowadays.

If you want a flame war as well, I am also open to that opinion.

Who said I wanted a flame war? That was exactly what I was arguing -against-. Sheesh!<

> You didn't argue about not having a flame war. You argued about my comments to your post.

"How To Handle The Protesters"

With the current war raging in Iraq, many of us will encounter "Peace Activists" who will try and convince us that we must refrain from riding the world of Saddam and the people that he supports... Many of them terrorists. Do you remember September 11, 2001?

These activists may be alone or in a gathering... Most of us don't know how to react to them. When you come upon one of these people, or one of their rallies, here are the proper rules of etiquette:

1. Listen politely while this person explains their views. Strike up a conversation if necessary and look very interested in their ideas. They will tell you how revenge is immoral, and that by attacking the evil regimes and the people who did this to us, we will only bring on more violence. They will probably use many arguments, ranging from political to religious to humanitarian.

2. In the middle of their remarks, without any warning, punch them in the nose.

3. When the person gets up off of the ground, they will be very angry and they may try to hit you, so be careful.

4. Very quickly and calmly remind the person that violence only brings about more violence and remind them of their stand on this matter. Tell them if they are really committed to a non-violent approach, they will turn the other cheek and negotiate a solution. Tell them they must lead by example if they really believe what they are saying.

5. Most of them will think for a moment and then agree that you are correct.

6. As soon as they do that, hit them again. Only this time hit them much harder. Square in the nose.

7. Repeat steps 2-5 until the desired results are obtained and the person realizes how stupid of an argument he/she is making.

There is no difference in an individual attacking an unsuspecting victim or a group of terrorists attacking a nation of people. It is unacceptable and must be dealt with. Perhaps at a high cost.

We owe our military a huge debt for what they are about to do for us and our children. We must support them and our leaders at times like these. We have no choice. We either strike back, VERY HARD, or we will keep getting hit in the nose.

If you can't be a good example, at least be a horrible warning.

That's not true. There are like 300 nations in the world and 6 billion people. Most people that you get into a fight with you will never see again. And this coookie-cutter response doesn't apply to Iraq.

LOL. It's strange what people will use to advertise their opinions. I wonder if she (thought it was a he at first actually) knows how goofy she looks.

Oh, my god! I laughed SO HARD AT THAT!

Thank you. :) So very much. *lol*

To be honest, I've stopped demonstrating, but I've explained why elsewhere. A large part of me opposing this war is the cost, and the economic welfare of our country. So, when I demonstrate, I cost the city money. Money that could go to schools and all sorts of other things. It's a hard decision. But my priorities have to stay in line. That's my personal decision.

But that? That just...cracked me up. In more ways than one. First, it was satire, and I know that. Second...I've decided that while people speak in generalities, all I have to know is that I am not part of it. To hell with what other people think.

Man,this protest thing is geting old.And now there protesting "NO Blood For Oil,"?WTF?NO blood for oil.We want to get rid of an evil menace and librate a country from a crule regime.
